Has Man Utd Found Their Long Term Right Back Replacment?

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal has told
the club’s official website that he believes Paddy
McNair could become the club’s first-choice right
back for the next decade.
.
McNair, 19, made his first-team debut at centre-back
in September’s 2-1 Premier League win over West
Ham United after a spate of injures hit the team’s
backline, and has since gone on to make 11 further
appearances.
.
Having come up through the club’s ranks as a central
midfielder, the Northern Irishman added a further
string to his bow in mid-week with a performance at
right-back in the 3-0 FA Cup win over Cambridge
United which saw him voted the fans’ man of the
match.
.
Van Gaal was more than impressed with his
contribution on the night, and now believes his
future could well be on the right-hand side of
defence.
