I wonder what midfielder we'll end up with in the Summer? Pogba will be at Madrid for a world record fee by all accounts, Strootman is fucked already and it looks like LVG actually fancies very few players.

I like Schneiderlin too, not sure how Soton would feel about losing him and Clyne to us though.
