With the way Uniteds defense looks, getting another striker or any offensive player, would be a huge mistake, I honestly believe they need to get defenders and I insist on that, because right now they are terrible at defense and I do not think that they are going to do any better without getting defenders. They can get Osimhen, they can get Vlahovic, they can get even Haaland if they want to, as long as their defense is how it is right now, I do not see them getting any better anytime soon. They tried their best to get a bit better, de ligt and ugarte (not defender but at least defensive minded midfielder like kante) were attempts, and yoro was too, and their hope was that these transfers would make a big difference.
However, some of them got injured, some missed games, and whenever any of them played, it wasn't a huge difference, proving the point that United makes terrible transfers or players just become terrible whenever they join this team.
Ruben Amorim on duty it's just one month his latest statement was good as he is not looking for new players he is going to check his current squad which is having the good number of players just need to adjust or fix their issues which are preventing them from having good results so most chances we will be having no changes in January but surely at the end of this season things could be interesting because we will have wholesale changes which will surely going to have huge impact on this clubs future.
Injuries are surely now having serious concern for the many clubs because workload is going through bad for players, and they are not able to give their best in all games while they are having good increase in games number while many clubs are surely going down badly due to lack of available sources which are not allowing them to have suitable replacements.
