Fred – Manchester United – Tactical Analysis

Since arriving at Manchester United in the summer of 2018, Fred has been under a microscope with each and every passing minute.

In recent weeks, the calls for Fred to be crowned one of United's most important players have only grown, as he performs a more attack-minded role within the team's double-pivot. So today, I present to you a dossier all about Manchester United's Fred, and why Manchester United would be worse without him.
