Aye. If we'll get Thiago it would be awesome anyway to see him linking up with Cleverley, with Carrick controlling everything.
Gundogan may be influenced by Kagawa in the future so there is a remote chance we can also get also him, knowing Moyesy's attitude towards building a midfield and Fergie's fascination of Klopp's Borussia.
I can easily see Carrick role next season being more defensive and supporting Thiago than being the main creative force in the midfield. I fully expect that Thiago (if he signs of course) very soon will be our main midfielder (probably as soon as the second part of the season or next season).
