"We think having a player like Fred in the squad – who is more  technical, more quality of passing in short spaces – he can maybe  connect [with] the attacking players."He could be an important player for us, but let’s wait. Michael Carrick is Michael Carrick and there is no successor."United continue their pre-season campaign on Wednesday when they host Serie A side Milan in Pasadena.The Red Devils have played out two draws against Club America and San Jose Earthquakes so far.</blockquote>
