EPL 2015: Manchester United bank on Schweinsteiger for midfield mongrel

Schweinsteiger has got class, he’s won the World Cup, he’s won everything in the game and he’s got experience and that’s massive, especially at Manchester United.

Not since Roy Keane swaggered round the Old Trafford pitch from 1993-2005 have United had a midfield enforcer with the skill, power and strength of character to run the team.

“I have to say the quality is huge”.

Schweinsteiger opted to end his 25-year association with Bayern this year after reports claimed that his former boss Pep Guardiola no longer trusted the World Cup victor, as per talkSPORT.

Manchester United defender Phil Jones has backed the club’s new recruits to help add silverware to the Old Trafford trophy cabinet next season.

Louis van Gaal has already strengthened his squad by making five signings so far and it appears United are preparing to bring in more additions with the new season just a week away.

“Bastian is the ultimate professional and there is no doubting his talent and his ability to control games”.

“I am very happy to be here and to play for Man United”, Schweinsteiger said. I want to win titles, it’s easy.

United face a Premier League opening match against Tottenham next Saturday – and utility man Daley Blind insists United are in confident mood – but Jones is also targeting positive results in the upcoming qualifiers for the Champions League.

Schweinsteiger, supported by Carrick and fellow new signing Morgan Schneiderlin, has the ability to fill that role.

However, no sooner had Schweinsteiger passed his medical and signed his contract at his new club’s training base than he was boarding a plane with his new side for their tour of the United States.
