Andreas Pereira receives rave reviews after pre-season friendly against AC Milan

Could this be the season he breaks through into the first team?

Andreas Pereira has long been touted as a potential superstar, but he has struggled to break through into the Manchester United first team over the past few seasons. A loan move to Valencia last season allowed him to get a lot more minutes under his belt, and learn from one of the best coaches in Europe: Marcelino. Pereira was given a start for Manchester United last night against AC Milan, and fans were impressed by what they saw. The diminutive midfielder was composed on the ball and displayed an impressive array of passes, attracting praise from a lot of United fans who would like to see the Brazilian given more of a chance next season by manager José Mourinho. https://twitter.com/AidanWalshMUFC/status/1022373789101944832 He is a versatile player, who can play in a deep, creative role, a conventional number 8 or as an attacking midfielder, which will give Mourinho different options when selecting his midfield next season. United have already signed Fred from Shakhtar Donetsk this summer, who will be competing with Pereira for minutes next season, but United fans seem adamant that their academy product needs to have a more prominent role in the upcoming season. https://twitter.com/markgoldbridge/status/1022355799249747969 https://twitter.com/DevilsOfUnited/status/1022322931752415235 https://twitter.com/manunitedmedia/status/1022353985380986880 https://twitter.com/Miraculous_Mike/status/1022326917033123842 https://twitter.com/iamscholes/status/1022352292404781056 https://twitter.com/DrawtyDevil/status/1022365883644166144
