Neither are great but one is improving (hopefully) and one is 30 so hardly likely we'll see much improvement from him through game time as a midfielder. Use fellaini as previously stated. He'll probably end up with more game time than McTominay if used as the target man option.

If we don't feel mctominay has the potential to be that player at least then why would we be keeping him?

He's not, he is a perfectly good midfielder who can play well in a fluid midfield and who has shown it for club and country many times. A midfield three with Felliani on the left side worked well when we saw it happen, even if we saw it very rarely last season for various reasons. And its not giving him more credit than he is due to point this out, its simply a realistic appraisal of his value. He is a very useful player who in this thread is repeatedly made out to be a one trick pony.
