Man United fans are very impressed by Fred’s individual highlights against Real Madrid

Fred looks well on his way to justifying his £52 million fee.

Jose Mourinho handed Fred his first start as Manchester United claimed a 2-1 victory over Real Madrid on Tuesday night and supporters were thrilled by their new signing's performance. The midfielder looked composed on the ball against the reigning European champions and began several attacks from midfield with impressive vision and execution from his deep role. The Brazilian's individual highlights from the game in Miami suggest that he is going to be massively popular at Old Trafford next season. https://twitter.com/MourinhoMindset/status/1024486053057626114 Mourinho is famously fond of powerful, physical players but he described Fred as a different kind of talent when he moved from Shakhtar Donetsk in June. "Fred is a technical player," Mourinho said after the 25-year-old signed.

"Having people in the squad like (Nemanja) Matic, (Marouane) Fellaini, Pogba, even Ander (Herrera) - physical people, strong - we think a player like Fred, Andreas Pereira - more technical, more quality of passing, playing in short spaces - will maybe connect with the attacking players.

"We thought that he could be an important player for us - but let's wait." After Michael Carrick's retirement at the end of last season, supporters are delighted to see such a calm presence in the heart of their midfield. https://twitter.com/_DanielAyres_/status/1024575142612135936 https://twitter.com/MUFC_Source_/status/1024575074559582214 https://twitter.com/LHarrison_Says/status/1024570032641257472 https://twitter.com/Caino_/status/1024569390858231808 https://twitter.com/joshbrads89/status/1024561776338321408 https://twitter.com/stebeano/status/1024560047450468352 https://twitter.com/KyleUtdMUFC/status/1024553875918008320 https://twitter.com/Monsieur_Jov/status/1024552226029809664 https://twitter.com/dazleasley/status/1024550527089209344 https://twitter.com/abboybobby/status/1024549968655384576 https://twitter.com/OnTheJoSlow/status/1024545407538524161 https://twitter.com/mikeyd105/status/1024542672239906816 https://twitter.com/alexiss_mufc/status/1024526279117295616 https://twitter.com/jj7jeffrey/status/1024524861455126529 https://twitter.com/sickpatton/status/1024523931980582913 https://twitter.com/Mr_fahrenheit86/status/1024510750637928448
