Briefly touched on whilst discussing Ander Herrera, the depth Manchester United now have in midfield is amongst the strongest in Europe. Not many fans would have agreed with you if 2 years ago you had told them the midfield would be the strongest area of the team now. 

With Michael Carrick, Daley Blind, Antonio Valencia, Ashley Young, Adnan Januzaj, Ander Herrera, Juan Mata, Bastian Schweinsteiger, Marouane Fellaini, Morgan Schneiderlin and Memphis Depay to choose from, Louis van Gaal now has an embarrassment of riches at his disposal. 

It’s just the rest of the team he needs to sort now.
