He's not going to displace Pogba or Fernandes and he's not really a defensive midfielder by trade.

Perhaps Solskjaer is looking to copy Liverpool's midfield of playing 3 number 8s across the line.


Think its the latter, no way Van de Beek joined to be a benchplayer.

Should prove to be a good transfer imo. Always rated Castagne.

Fabinho isnt a no.8 at all

Pogba, Fernandez and VDB are all offensive midfilders imo

Neither of them are strictly creators though, Pogba works best running forward starting from deep position and Fernandes likes to drop deep a lot and help with defensive work.

Turning them all into box to box all action midfielders is not the most outlandish idea in the world.

N'golo Kanté is needed in this midfield :drool:

I wouldn't say no and Chelsea are reportedly ready to let him go but his heart problems are definitely an issue - he fainted in the dressing room once and his brother died of heart attack :(
