Daley Blind is a master at breaking the lines with Manchester United fans reminiscing and bemoaning his transfer following their side's FA Cup exit.

Man United were knocked out of the competition by Leicester City who advanced to the semi-finals following their 3-1 win on Sunday.

The Reds were underwhelming at the King Power Stadium with Fred slammed for his performance in the middle of the park.

But their midfield could have been a lot more productive if they hadn't of sold Blind in 2018.

A stunning compilation of his range of passing shows Man United have been crying out for a player like him in defensive midfield.

He also produced two outrageous passes during Ajax's 5-0 win over ADO Den Haag, highlighting his ability to break the lines.

Man United supporters caught wind of his performance on Sunday with one fan claiming he'd be the "best DM and best CB right now" at Old Trafford.

A second said: "Still disappointed that he left United. So much quality."

A third added: "He is an amazing player honestly, such a calming presence at the back. We could use some of his composure at the back."

Another wrote: "LVG played him CB, LB and Jose is not a possession based manager and got Matic for himself quickly. Blind's weight on the ball, accuracy and angles of passing through lines is beautiful to see."

Blind was snapped up by Louis van Gaal and departed under Jose Mourinho's spell, with the Dutchman now enjoying his football at his boyhood club.
