Midfield Revival at Old Trafford | Manchester United News

Manchester United’s midfield is finally clicking, even after a gritty 2-2 draw with Everton. Manager Michael Carrick has stuck with the Kobbie Mainoo and Youri Tielemans pairing — a combo that also delivered in their earlier win over Ipswich — showing promising control despite two costly goals.

Former Chelsea star John Obi Mikel tipped Adam Wharton as the next big signing, calling him “destined for greatness” and predicting a move to Old Trafford next season — though Mikel admits he’d love to see Wharton at Chelsea too.
