Man United Vs City: Here Is The Player To Take Pogba’s Place

Belgium star player Marouane Fellaini is ready to play for Manchester United when they clash with Man City on Sunday at the Etihad Stadium. The talented midfielder has declared himself fit and is likely to start in the center of the park alongside Nemanja Matic in the Manchester Derby.

The former Everton midfielder was forced off the pitch in his side’s 1-0 win over Brighton a few weeks ago and has missed Man United’s three games since then.

Paul Pogba won’t feature for his side in their next three domestic fixtures after receiving a straight red card during the 3-1 win over Arsenal last Saturday, and his suspension starts from Sunday’s game against Man City.

Manager Jose Mourinho revealed on Friday that the trio of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Nemanja Matic and Phil Jones are fit for the Manchester Derby, but that Marouane Fellaini will be assessed on Saturday.

And it was reported a few hours ago that Fellaini is set to be passed fit and will take the place of Paul in the starting XI on Sunday.

The Belgian’s return is a big boost for the red devils, as they must do all it takes to reduce Man City’s current eight points lead on the premier league table.

Losing to Pep Guardiola’s side on Sunday will make Man City the first club to win 14 straight premier league games in a season.
