Manchester United fans give verdict on who should be in Erik ten Hag's first-choice midfield
Manchester United fans have been giving their thoughts on who should line up in Erik ten Hag’s first-choice midfield next season.
The new United boss has made the middle of the park one of his priorities in the transfer window and has already identified two names he wants to add to his options. He could even be close to bringing one of them to Old Trafford.
United are understood to be edging closer to the signing of Frenkie de Jong, who was identified early on by Ten Hag as an ideal addition to his midfield. They're also interested in Christian Eriksen, with the Denmark international available as a free agent.

As pre-season gets underway at Carrington, the question still remains of who will make up United’s first-choice midfield next season. Fans have been giving their thoughts on the hot topic, and you can still have your say here.
R84:First-choice midfield:
DM - Wilfred Ndidi
CM - Frenkie de Jong
CAM - Donny van de beek
Midfield group: Bruno Fernandes (CAM), Fabian Ruiz (CM), James Garner (CM), Kouadio Kone (DM /CM)
Ndidi can only get better under ETH. A PERFECT defensive midfielder to protect the backline which can allow De jong & Van de Beek to create & control.
Kouadio Kone can develop under ETH.
Apart from midfield, I wish United should try and sign Josko Gvardiol (perfect player for ETH style football who can make a huge difference going forward ). Gvardiol is a versatile player who can play almost everywhere on the field. He can be a CB, LB, LWB, DM, CM, CAM or even a forward.
He is a rare talent. I think United should get this player even if he is an expensive target. He is priceless.
