Fred was billed as the signing to finally strike the right balance in Manchester United’s midfield, providing the platform for Paul Pogba to thrive while offering something offensively himself as well, but we’re still waiting to really see that from the Brazilian since moving to Old Trafford.

While there were no innocent parties in the abysmal performance against Brighton last time out, Fred’s overall contributions in the Premier League have been largely underwhelming for a new arrival Transfermarkt value at £45million.

Indeed, from two appearances thus far in the top flight, the South American has been dispossessed as many times as he’s won the ball and committed five more fouls than he’s made tackles.

Hardly resounding numbers for a player who should really be pushing to make himself a key part of Jose Mourinho’s starting XI.

After the woeful 3-2 defeat at the Amex Stadium, it’s clear changes are needed for United’s coming clash with Tottenham Hotspur or else it could end up being a really embarrassing evening at Old Trafford.

So, is dropping Fred the answer? Let us know by voting below…
