Areas to Reinforce for the Red Devils

Signing Antony and Jurrien Timber will definitely improve the deficient right side for United.

United also need to continue focusing on improving the defensive midfield position which continues to be an Achilles heel for them.

The club lost out to Aurelien Tchouameni, who completed a move to Real Madrid and would need to break the bank to sign a player like Declan Rice who West Ham value highly. Therefore, they need to be smart in the way they go about signing their players.

Another central defender and left-back will be a bonus for the club. They need to shore up defensive options after conceding 56 goals last season, their worst in Premier League history.

Therefore, in his first season already, Erik ten Hag has his work cut out at one of the most scrutinised clubs in the world. It will be a steep learning curve for him and his chastised players this season.
