West Brom coach Gerry Francis believes the additions of Romelu Lukaku and Nemanja Matic have transformed Manchester United this season.
Francis says the duo have turned the Red Devils' fortunes around.
“I think two key players for me (have been the difference)," he said on Sky Sports.
“That's been Matic, who's been vitally important for organising in front of the back four, winning the ball back, similar to what (N'Golo) Kante has done for the last two seasons for Leicester and Chelsea, and Lukaku up front.
“He's given them that little bit of extra pace in behind, proven goalscorer in the Premier League.
“Even if Lukaku gets injured they can use (Marcus) Rashford in that role.
“There is a lot more strength in depth at the highest level and obviously that has been shown by their results."
