Manchester United’s midfield in their defeat to Liverpool yesterday was a mess.
Not only were the team carved upon far too easily, but the quality on the ball wasn’t great either.
Casemiro and Kobbie Mainoo made mistakes that led to the three goals and many have questioned the setup of the midfield ever since.
One of the men who could have improved the quality on the pitch was sat on the bench for the majority of the game.

Christian Eriksen has proven over time to be a master of the football.
In his first year at Old Trafford, the optimum midfield for the club was Casemiro, Eriksen and Bruno Fernandes.
However, since that initial season, Eriksen has been restricted to a squad player role.
This has led to much speculation over his future at the club.
Even the Denmark international manager has spoken about the need for Eriksen to get first team football.
And it was believed that United were open to selling the Danish midfielder.
Ajax, an old club for Christian Eriksen, were heavily linked to him in the summer.
It now seems that he’s going to remain at the club for a while still.

The agent for Christian Eriksen, Martin Schoots, has now come out to address his future at Old Trafford.
Speaking to Dutch football magazine Voetbal International, Schoots has put a firm marker in the ground.
When addressing Eriksen leaving the club, Schoots had an emphatic response.
“The deal is not happening,” Schoots said about the Ajax return rumours.
“We can put an end to those speculations.”
So that’s that.
Straight from the horses mouth, as they say.
It looks like Christian Eriksen will be seeing out the last season of his contract in Manchester.
Based on the team’s performance yesterday, Erik ten Hag might want to give him a few more minutes in the middle of the park for his side.
