We've been over why Bastian Schweinsteiger needs to be playing for Manchester United, so we're not going to do that again.
(sorry, can't help ourselves: it's because Marouane Fellaini is garbage)
Schweinsteiger's exile from the Manchester United first team finally ended Wednesday when he made a four-minute (plus stoppage time) cameo in United's 4-1 win against West Ham in the EFL Cup quarterfinals.
The moment Bastian Schweinsteiger came on for United. Big cheer. Didn't think it would happen again! #mufc pic.twitter.com/L4QUle0yhV

WHAT A MOMENT.
Amazing evening with a perfect result. Thanks for the warm welcome at Old Trafford! @ManUtd pic.twitter.com/cPSr1dIO8L

Hopefully Schweinsteiger can work his way into regular time for Man U, who need all the help they can get given they keep dropping points to bad teams.
Obligatory reminder that Marouane Fellaini is trash and shouldn't play with Paul Pogba:
Paul Pogba’s natural replacement is…Marouane Fellaini? pic.twitter.com/7EuPqNybIx

Yes. His replacement. Because Paul Pogba shouldn't be playing with Marouane Fellaini. Because Marouane Fellaini is bad. And Paul Pogba is good. Paul Pogba should be playing with Bastian Schweinsteiger.
Sorry, I'm not even a Manchester United fan. I just can't bear to see two great midfielders (Pogba and Schweinsteiger) (not Fellaini) treated this way.
There's hope, though. Bastian's back!
