Although we've played only 3 games (Pogba 2), I feel we have finally got the perfect combination of CMs with Fellaini obviously being the destroyer while Pogba being the creator/ box-to-box player.

Mourinho is really a genius in that he already envisioned this even before officially joining us. He was so confident that this would work and the first thing he did was calling Fellaini to boost his confidence and then convincing the board to bring Pogba at whatever the price. I feel our 2 CMs will be the most crucial factor that differentiates success and failure.

The derby will be our first test. Come on United !!
