Winning the midfield is more about fitness and tactics then about the personnel: yes, having better skilled players helps, but if you have a midfield that can run box-to-box all day and have the tactics that allow support from defence / attack to support the midfield and outnumber the opposition, then you’re in a much better place. The problem with United down the years is that we have simply run much less kilometres overall than the opposition and, under tactics like Amorim, our midfield was constantly outnumbered too.
Just need to get the team in impeccable fitness before the season starts and work out a proper 4-3-3 tactic where the 3 in the middle are never outnumbered.
