These Two Stars Could Be Manchester United’s De Bruyne And Silva, Claims Gary Neville

Gary Neville

Man United legend Gary Neville believed that Pogba and Bruno Fernandes could be the Red Devils’ De Bruyne and Silva if given the opportunity.

Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes could become the Manchester United equivalent of David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer changed his Man United formation, Gary Neville reported. The Red Devils legend has encouraged Manchester United Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to try using both Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba to target the middlemen in his play XI.

Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes could become the Manchester United equivalent of David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne if Ole Gunnar Solskjaer changed his Man United formation, Gary Neville reported. The Red Devils legend has encouraged Manchester United Manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to try using both Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba to target the middlemen in his play XI.

Bruno - PogbaSpeaking about the game on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Gary Neville said he believes Solskjaer should consider changing his formation and using both Paul Pogba and Bruno Fernandes in an advanced position and use a single holding midfielder behind the duo in a way similar to how Pep Guardiola used David Silva and Kevin De Bruyne at Man City.

“I think it’s a problem when you have £150 million worth of midfielders on the bench. You’ve got one player who has won the World Cup and been dominant in Europe. He’s Manchester United’s record signing and yet can’t get in the team,” Neville stated.

“For me, I’ve never understood why Ole hasn’t tried one sitter with Pogba and Fernandes in front, like De Bruyne and David Silva. Kevin De Bruyne and Silva weren’t disciplined midfield players before Pep Guardiola arrived, he made them into that, so that’s the only system I can see where it would be obvious to get those two into position,” Neville advocated.

The Man United legend added that Solskjaer may have noticed something in training and decided against it, but he claims that Pogba should have the opportunity to play higher up the field because he’s not disciplined enough to play in front of the back four.

Jamie Carragher has a different view on Paul Pogba-Bruno Fernandes

Liverpool hero Jamie Carragher disagreed with Gary Neville and said that it was easier for the team to have Fred and Scott McTominay at the core of the game. Carragher said he was unconvinced that the relationship between Bruno Fernandes and Paul Pogba will succeed.

“Fernandes is their man in the No. 10 position but I don’t know how Ole can continue not to pick a £90 million signing. It’s not easy for the manager but at some stage, he will get back into the team. But for me, Pogba and Fernandes will never work,” Jamie Carragher claimed.
