Presently, their midfield get players like Casemiro, Manuel Ugarte, and even Toby Collyer; but e get as e be say Collyer fit waxed somewhere else on loan, and Casemiro dey enter final year of him contract. E mean say United sure need to refresh their midfield.
Also, if you wan hear wetin analyst Carl Anka talk, he don check Baleba play style. Na guy wey sabi tackle well, but also dey good in reading the game. Sometimes, e fit tackle before opponent go catch am; now that na quality wey any team dey find, abi no be so?
