Just how do Manchester United get back to the top of the Premier League? The club have had several attempts to do since the departure of Sir Alex Ferguson back in 2013, and it doesn’t really feel like they’re getting any closer. Last season was arguably one of the worst in recent memory, as the Red Devils slipped to a disappointing sixth-placed finish and ended the campaign with an embarrassing pair of results to already-relegated Huddersfield and Cardiff.
So when the club announced early deals for Daniel James and Aaron Wan-Bissaka, it felt like United were moving in the right direction, signing young talents with promising futures. All it needed was a few more ready-made players able to come in and stamp their authority on the side immediately.
Instead, United have been left scrambling around trying to complete deals for Harry Maguire and Sean Longstaff, whilst the futures of some of their high-profile stars remain uncertain.

It’s therefore all the more perplexing that following the side’s rather uninspiring 1-0 win over Kristiansund in pre-season, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer seemed to downplay the extent of the rebuilding job on his hands. He said: “We’re working on one or two cases. It’s 10 days or so before we start the league and hopefully we can announce a fresh face or two.”
Just one or two? Really? United finished a staggering 32 points behind their ‘noisy neighbours’ Manchester City last season, and yet Solskjaer is saying that the club would be happy to get just a couple more signings through the door? The Red Devils are in desperate need of a squad shake-up, whether that’s moving players on who don’t want to be at the club or bringing in bona-fide talents to help spruce the existing team up.
Players are just like everyday fans, waiting to see what their club does in the transfer market and seeing new players potentially joining them. It can often galvanise the mood around a dressing room knowing that the club have made a huge splash in the window. The Red Devils perhaps more than any other side in the proverbial ‘big six’ are in major need of something to uplift them. It’s imperative that rather than just the “fresh face or two” Solskjaer has hinted at, the last week of the transfer window sees major transfer activity for the Manchester side.
