Scholes wants a Carrick-Pogba partnership

As one of Manchester United's fiercest critics of late, Paul Scholes has been keen on having a close look at Jose Mourinho's new side and his new additions to the Red Devils. Paul Pogba and Zlatan Ibrahimovic's arrivals have sparked a new number of possibilities which can be quite beneficial for the club, but in order to get there, Jose Mourinho first needs to be able to experiment properly. Scholes analyzed the starting XI, he expects the club to improve in midfield with a suggestion he mad.

The first analysis point was Paul Pogba, Scholes said: "He's not the greatest controller of a football game. You have to remember he came from a brilliant team at Juventus. Andrea Pirlo and Claudio Marchisio could control the game and let him go and do his thing. I would like to see Michael Carrick with him. He can direct him and tell him where to go."

Paul also believes that Marcus Rashford will have a hard time surpassing Zlatan Ibrahimovic, but the key to his success lies in learning everything he can from the Swedish striker: "It's going to be very difficult to dislodge Zlatan [Ibrahimovic], we know that. But it is great for him to learn from someone like that. He has played a lot of his youth football as a right winger and he can play as a centre-forward or in either wide position. He has great movement, he can finish. He isn't scared of big games, as we saw against Arsenal and Man City. He is at a point now where he is making it difficult for Mourinho to leave him out."
