well Carrick-Fellaini-Herrera was already decent last season and now they have added two quality players ... IMO Schneiderlin is the 2nd best DM in the league (behind Matic), while Schweinsteiger is a leader and fighter who has won it all. Chelsea surely is the only team in the league that can field something similar in quality as Schneiderlin-Schweinsteiger-Herrera, but United have more depth with Carrick, Fellaini and Blind.
in either case, impressive stuff by United ... three signings in three days is incredible. And the cherry on the cake for me is that City spent about the same money for one player with attitude problems as United did for those three players: Darmian 13m, Schweinsteiger 14m, Schneiderlin 24m - that's 51m combined while City shelled out 49m for Sterling. Crazy stuff.
