It is undeniable that Manchester United's defense has played so badly in recent years. That is also the reason why goalkeeper David De Gea is always the number 1 star of the team.
This season is the same, after 28 matches, the "Red Devils" have conceded 36 goals. At one point, they were the only team in the top 10 with a negative goal difference. Therefore, adding human resources to this line is a top priority for Manchester United.
Chris Smalling and Phil Jones are trying very hard but their class is only average. They have had a few years to prove it, and now is the time for both Smalling and Jones to prepare mentally for a life of getting used to the bench. kalidou Koulibaly and Milan Skriniar are the number 1 targets pursued by M.U to replace the entire midfield.
The main factors of Napoli and Inter Milan are being harnessed in Serie A - the cradle of training top central defenders. In a campaign expected to sell out 200 million pounds, M.U wants to spend half of the money to buy these top-class stars.
On the afternoon of March 1, coach Solskjaer confirmed that Valencia will leave after 10 seasons with Old Trafford. The current position on the right wing of Ashley Young is not really solid because Young's class and age are limited. And the target is Aaron Wan-Bissaka, playing for Crystal Palace.
M.U will have to compete with Arsenal in the fight for Wan-Bissaka. The star is expected to cost around £40 million and the team that is more convincing will achieve the desired goal. On the left wing of the 4-man defense, Luke Shaw has revived. Looking at how he "pocketed" Salah of Liverpool in the English derby, we can see how confident Solsa is about this position.
The attack is not a problem for the "Red Devils" when they have too many good strikers. Marcus Rashford, Romelu Lukaku, Anthony Martial, Alexis Sanchez and Jesse Lingard could all take turns swapping positions. Just need to wake up Sanchez and Lukaku, M.U is considered unfavorable on the attack front.
The midfield will not have many changes, especially the position of Paul Pogba. The problem for the "Red Devils" is how to find people of the same class to dominate the midfield, avoiding cases of complete suppression such as the first leg of the 1/8 Champions League round against PSG.
Ivan Rakitic is almost certain to leave Barcelona this summer as he and the Nou Camp team have not found a voice for a long time. Rakitic himself was not used much under coach Valverde. Rakitic is talented, classy and a creative midfielder. All of those factors have captivated Manchester United and they are determined to own this star.
Pogba and Rakitic's reserves still include Ander Herrera, Juan Mata and many other young stars. M.U not only has a good youth training center, this team also has players of equal class, suitable for replacement when needed. The proof is that after 7 injuries in the first team, Solsa still rotated his personnel and convincingly beat Crystal Palace 3-1 away.
The dream squad is enough, what millions of "Red Devils" fans are waiting for right now on the coaching bench. Solskjaer is doing very well but there is no guarantee he will be in charge until next season. The answer will be when the 2018-19 season ends.
If M.U successfully entered the top 4, the possibility of Solsa staying is very high. Otherwise, the recent beautiful time is just a fleeting memory in the coaching career of this young coach.
