On May 17th, Anderson delivered an outstanding performance in Manchester United's 2-3 defeat to Nottingham Forest at Old Trafford. The match, which was supposed to be an emotional farewell for Casemiro, inadvertently became a stage for the English midfielder to showcase his class and prompted the Red Devils' management to seriously consider rebuilding their midfield.

Manchester United finished third in the Premier League this season and secured a place in next season's Champions League. With manager Michael Carrick set to sign a long-term contract, the top priority for the Old Trafford club is strengthening their midfield. Many believe Anderson is the perfect player for this new project.

The 23-year-old midfielder delivered a comprehensive performance against Manchester United. Not only was he active in midfield, Anderson also directly made a difference in attack with two superb assists for Nottingham Forest. Both goals came from intelligent runs down the right wing before delivering accurate crosses.

In particular, his assist for Morato's first goal was reminiscent of Steven Gerrard's trademark passes during his time at Liverpool. It was a moment that showed Anderson was not only good at winning tackles and controlling the game, but also possessed a remarkable ability to create game-changing moments.

In addition to his two assists, Anderson's statistics completely outshone the rest of the players on the pitch. He won 9 duels, recovered the ball 8 times, and led the game in the number of crosses into the final third with 14. This all-around performance made the English midfielder the standout player of the match.

Anderson's impressive form has not only attracted attention from MU. Manchester City are currently leading the race to sign him. The Etihad Stadium club previously failed in their attempt to sign Declan Rice and do not want to repeat that mistake.

However, if Manchester United are truly serious about their ambition to return to the top of English football, they should probably do everything they can to bring Elliot Anderson to Old Trafford this summer.
