Others have made fewer headlines, such as the Wes Brown and O’Shea, but they have been important parts of the fold. Fletcher once slipped into that category, with an unsung hero often called upon by Sir Alex Ferguson for big games that required United to gain control in the middle of the park.
McTominay has become a go-to man in the present, for Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with his value highlighted once again when netting twice inside the opening three minutes of a stunning 6-2 win over Leeds.
“Fletch was a huge part of that and the trust that Sir Alex had in him as well. Obviously being Scottish and in midfield helps the comparison too, but it’s similar styles of play. “It’s a great asset to have because that’s what is needed in the Premier League, that intensity and reliability, and Scott definitely has that.”
“The manager now knows when he picks Scott McTominay that he has huge trust in him to go and apply whatever tactics or approach he has for that specific game. He has that in Scott and it’s a huge thing that will only grow.”

“I’d have to say they will be contenders – our form and goalscoring ability shows that. They have shown as well, as they did against City, that they can shut up shop too. “They will be looking at the table. Publicly they will say they’re not, but they are well aware of where they are and what they need to do to close the gap. If they can get the consistency, they will be very close.”
Young man is a fighter…
I love his game…
