MANCHESTER UNITED ASSEMBLE AN ELITE FIRST TEAM BUT THE CLUB APPEARS TO HAVE MADE A MASSIVE ERROR BY OVERLOOKING AN AREA

 

Mason Greenwood, Marcus Rashford, Bruno Fernandes, Edinson Cavani, Bruno Fernandez, Paul Pogba, Donny van de Beek and now Cristiano Ronaldo added to the mix and we haven't even gotten to the Manchester United bench yet. On the bench as the second option, Manchester United has players such as Juan Mata, Anthony Elanga, Nemanja Matic, and Anthony Martial.  

 

 

 

 

 

Yes, the Manchester United bench might not turn heads as much as the starting XI but the Red Devils will do this season and that's a point that most Manchester United affiliates will have no problem agreeing with. 

 

 

With the inclusion of Dutch midfielder Donny van de Beak- who might not necessarily always make an appearance in the starting eleven for Manchester United this season especially considering the level of preference Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer continue to show to midfield duo Fred Rodriguez and Scott Mctominay, this season- Manchester United do have a bench made up of players who have the ability to be quite impactful in terms of injecting top-quality into this Manchester United team and that's something that manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer most makes use of in regards to maintaining a healthy squad for the entire season.  

 

 

 

 

But the conversation centered around how Manchester United continue to carry a squad that has quality depth within it without making proper use of the squad with the help of key rotation policy in the starting lineup is a conversation that has possibly started to slowly find its way into the Manchester United Women's team.  

 

 

However, this is a conversation that will be put aside for another day as tonight’s article will not address the lack of the use of the depth in quality currently present in both the Manchester united Men's team and the manchester united women's team.  

 

This article will address an issue that most Manchester United supporters and a select few football analysts have identified as an issue that could yet derail Manchester United’s march towards winning major trophies within the next two years at the very least. This topic in question is about how Manchester United’s midfield could yet struggle this season after the Red Devils failed to secure the services of a proven, experienced, central defensive midfielder before the 2021 summer transfer window shut down. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Let there be no misunderstanding observed in this article. Manchester United board of directors has done exceptionally well with the team which has been assembled for Manchester United manager Ole Gunner Solskjaer this season. Furthermore, with the addition of world-class striker Cristiano Ronaldo who is now leading the line as the main striker for Manchester United this season, Manchester United manager Ole Gunner Solskjaer looks set to now lead Manchester United into a future where the Red Devils can potentially win its first few major trophies since the departure of legendary manager Sir Alex Ferguson over a decade ago.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

However, the Red Devils might not want to place a 100% bet on themselves as the team who is certain to lift the Premier League trophy and the UEFA Champions League trophy at the end of the 2021/ 22 football season.  

 

Believe it or not, information reaching the Manchester United channel this early part of September suggest that the Red Devils have overlooked a flaw within this perfectly designed Manchester United team which might yet block the path to success for this Manchester United team and that flaw appears to be it clubs failure to address the absence of a central defensive midfielder. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yves Bissoma, Douglas Luiz, Eduardo Camavinga, Ruben Neves and of course Declan Rice. The fact of the matter remains that Manchester United had quite a handful of names which they could have picked as the new center defensive midfielder signing made this summer by Manchester United football club.   

 

The Red Devils are currently trying to cover the issue by pretending the problem does not exist but the fact still remains that Manchester United needed a new central defensive midfielder added to the current squad if Manchester United are to win the Premier League and win the Champions League in the space of three years.  

 

Let's use the information received here at the Manchester United channel and analyze what might be about to unravel at Manchester United over the course of the current season.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

According to the information which Manchester United channel has received over the past two months, Manchester United manager Ole Gunner Solskjaer had been promised four major signings to come in during the 2021 summer transfer window. With the 2021 summer transfer window now closed, we have seen Manchester United secure the services of a renowned center back in Rafael Varane, a top tier young winger in Jadon Sancho, and of course as we've seen over the last remaining days of the 2021 summer transfer window, the return of the world's best player in Cristiano Ronaldo to Old Trafford.  

 

 

The Glazers have certainly outdone themselves there is no denying that.  

 

 

 

 

 

However, all the good work done by some of the hard-working people found within the current Manchester United management sector none stand a chance of coming on done at the end of this season as a result of the failure to secure one piece of the puzzle in a central defensive midfielder this past summer.  

 

 

 

By hardworking behind the scenes at Manchester United this is, of course, referring to the work done by people such as sir Matt George and the new football director at Manchester United John Murtough and to some extent Sir Alex Ferguson -who were the ones understood to have primarily taken full control of the 2021 summer transfer window to bring in top talents such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Jadon Sancho, Edinson Cavani, and Raphael Varane within the space of the past two summer transfer windows. Deals inevitably played a massive factor in turning Manchester United back into a formidable side.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Manchester United ended their 2021 summer transfer window business with the completion of four signings in total none of which included the provision of a new central defensive midfielder this past summer. Suffice to say that Manchester United will most likely make a charge for both the UEFA champions league trophy and the Premier League trophy. The pursuit of two trophies has eluded the grasp of the Red Devils for over a decade.  

 

 

 

 

However, while the massive task of reaching the pinnacle of success remains achievable by the current Manchester United team still remains achievable, in theory, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s newly reformed Manchester United team will certainly face a shaky difficult road ahead in regards to establishing strong transitional football between offense and defense with the absence of an established central defensive midfielder acting as a transitional conductor poised to possibly be a regular theme in this Manchester United team this season. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

With the current squad provided for Ole Gunner Solskjaer, Manchester United and all affiliates will aspect to see a return in investment in the form of major trophies being won by the club over the next two years.  

 

 

However, against a solid team such as Manchester City, Liverpool, and Chelsea who have all built their starting XI squads on the backs of one or two top-notch center defensive midfield players, Manchester United will certainly have difficulty breaking down these teams while maintaining poise and balance between holding up a strong defensive structure and initiating a quick transitional quality attacking, phases during games without the presence of an established central defensive midfielder.
