Five Manchester United stars who could get dropped after transfer spree

4) Darren Fletcher (Central Midfield)

Darren Fletcher has seen the last two seasons of his career decimated by serious illness, and on what is hoped to be his full return to the first team reckoning at Old Trafford he will now also have Herrera to contend with when it comes to securing a place in the United line-up.

Both are box-to-box type players, making it more likely that the Scottish international will be competing directly with Herrera for a place in Louis van Gaal’s team.
