'Being box-to-box, there's some amazing examples': Scott McTominay reveals his midfield inspirations... with star watching clips of Zinedine Zidane, Roy Keane and former Manchester United captain's rival Patrick Vieira to improve his game

Scott McTominay has revealed he is learning to improve his game by watching clips of Patrick Vieira, Roy Keane and Zinedine Zidane.

The Manchester United midfielder came through the academy, making his debut in May 2017, and has become a key player under current manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

There was even talk that he could be a candidate to win the club's player of the year honour until he was sidelined for two months due to an injury.
