This is right, Marcus Rashford is good; he can score atleast 30 goals all season but thats not enough for Manchester United standards as they want to challenge for all trophies next season. Nkunku is good but i do not think he is premier league standards (time will tell).  Will Manchester United sign Holjunds or rely on Rashford for the new season?

Yes, this assumption is true. Even though at first, some of his decisions raised big pros and cons, his efforts at Man United last season really paid off. They were even able to finish and enter the UCL this season. This is a pretty good development after they failed in the previous few seasons. Yes, although in fact there are some things that sometimes feel strange when Ten Hag makes a decision by continuing to include a controversial player on the field (we know who that is .... haha). And finally this season he will be tested again with some of the fresh players they bought in the current transfer market. And Ten Hag is still looking for other players who suit Man United, their tactics and their finances.

Of course, Rashford cannot carry the whole load alone. The team needs a very good striker. I liked Nkunku, but Chelsea acted before them and made a serious transfer. If Manchester United want the championship, a striker is a must, they must find it. If there is a striker of this quality in their infrastructure, I think they can make it to the A team as a backup.

Erik Ten Hag in the market again, this time he needs a forward in his squad, he's fed up with the forged attacking lines in the team, it's absolutely not helping matters on ground. The coach already scout out the top attacker and it's just a matter of time before he signs for Manchester United. Erik Ten Hag using Marcus Rashford to play a force attack, is not a good plan, it will only make the englishman vulnerable to attacks from defenders. However Rashford is doing an excellent job in united frontline, confidence with good positioning infront of goals.

This kind of solution should have been thought of by Ten Hag at this point before it was too late, because Manchester United really need a center forward so they can score more goals and not just rely on one player like Marcus Rashford. Although it is not a problem if Ten Hag hopes that Marcus Rashford will score more goals, it will be more perfect and very helpful if there is one center forward at Manchester United next season.

A club resting the success of the club on the shoulder of a particular player is bound to fail if the player decides the leave the club for the other. Mane's departure from Liverpool is a prime illustration of this.
So many other clubs have such mistakes in the past, depending on a player for winning. it took them time before they could rebuild and bounce back to their normal state of winning.
We observed how Liverpool experienced that. They refused to let Mane's leaving stop them from at least making it to the Europa League.

Chelsea spent a lot of money last season on signing new players, but they failed to perform well in the league. As for me, it is from the coach, as they have recently hired a new coach.The manager's job is to find players that fit into his style of play and trust him as a mentor. He must select his own players. It's what Guardiola has done for City, and those players will always go above and beyond for him. I believe Chelsea will play great ball next season, and they will perform very well under the new manager. Chelsea will be a difficult club to beat next season.

Of a truth Manchester United manager Erik Ten Hag has  really made a huge positive impact at the club since he took the managerial role at Old Trafford. A league cup trophy, top four finish and taking Manchester United to the FA Cup final isn't bad for a manager's first season in English football.
That been said, it is worthy to note that Manchester United is one of the biggest clubs in not just England but in the whole of Europe with rich football records and history. The pressure might somehow be high but whichever it is, Erik Ten Hag must do better than he did last season

Yes, Ten Hag needs a center forward; Marcus Rashford is a left inside forward; while Antony is a right winger; having to rely so much on Rashford goals is one reason why Manchester United fumbled couple of competitions in the previous season. If Ten Hag won;t get a center forward; then he needs to sign a Left winger; so that Marcus Rashford can be pushed up top in the no 9 position.

You have to look at the state of other top clubs in general, Chelsea have changed coach, the squad will surely be reshuffled and it will give a good result. So at least they can get involved in this race and Manchester United will have a competitor. I'm more interested in Newcastle's fate, whether they will keep this momentum going 

Is Mane an exceptional player, yes! Did Liverpool miss him, yes! Did liverpook fell off because of him, no but the absence was felt. We can't denied the fact that Mane played an important role in Liverpool forward last season, he was the best thing that happen to Klopp ever since he came into that club but then as you said, the rest of the players were in zombie mode as if they weren't doing anything at all but I doubt if Mane remains in Liverpool, the situation would have been better, no player that was signed could do the combined assist and goals he scored in a season was done by any of them, not even the old ones like Firminno nor Jota did what he did in his last season in Liverpool.

Chelsea made "big" transfers last season and looking to get out of that now. They have tried "inject a lot of money quickly and find a way to win" but they have failed that so I think it is going to be tough to do the same thing.

So, instead they are selling the players they have, and getting younger players and hoping that it would work for them in the end. I am not saying that it would be a smart decision or anything like that, I am not saying this is what they should do, all I am stating right now is the current situation. Get rid of superstars that worth a lot of money, and use that money to get young players with some potential and that would be a good thing for the future. I believe it is actually a good idea for sure.

This is a fact that many Liverpool supporters and also some of their team members don’t believe. It was very obvious that after Mane left, the team was underperforming and the position that Mane was playing was left open as no  player was competent enough to replace him and perform well like he does.
It is also true that new players will take time to adapt to a new team they recently joined. While some players don’t take long, some take up to one season before they can adapt to the team. All this doesn’t matter much if at the end of the day the players will be able to deliver well what they’re assigned to do in the team.

We have good substitutes for key players, right? Last season, Firmino and Milner were the team's backbone. Their impact will be missed. However, Klopp's recruitment of Brighton's Mac Allister to strengthen our midfield, which was weak last season, was brilliant! I expect him to fill the gap given his ability. I'm excited to see how the new players mesh this season.

Under the tutelage of Erik Ten Hag, Manchester United slowly found the right track again. now they are heading for a change, unfortunately in this season's transfer window Ten Hag had to choose players very carefully because their funds were limited. and this, makes the change process that is being carried out and planned by the coach experience obstacles. So far, Ten Hag has made purchases of players very carefully and must match the team's needs.

And IMO, Manchester United still needs some new arrivals to strengthen the depth of his team.
Apart from that, United need a center forward, because Ten Hag cannot always expect Marcus Rashford. that's why, Ten Hag is trying and looking for a solution how to work around this. plus, they need Casemiro backups. because, sometimes without the presence of Casemiro, United's play has decreased. I'm pretty sure the Ten Hag was well aware of that. ideally, United need 3 or 4 newcomers. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if they can afford it.
Speaking of the Champions League, I'm not going to go too far. because, this competition still has a long gap before it is held. at least, we will see first how United carry out match after match in the League competition. in fact, we will find out soon regarding the matter of acquiring ownership of this club. Let's wait, until the transfer market this summer has closed.

Pre season can be a good time to assess the performance of your players, but some players play better when the season begins than during the preseason and for Havertz, I expect that he has not yet left the failures and disappointment from other club Chelsea where he is coming from, but he will get better. If he does not pick up performance early, Arteta will not let him start in games and will most likely pick Trossard ahead of him until he begins to show that he will not be a liability to the team.

Apart from Allister, Dominik Szoboszlai also had pretty good statistics with Leipzig before this. The two new players have the task of replace Roberto Firmino and James Milner at Liverpool. Allister and Szoboszlai's debuts will be a big concern as they will need to match or better from the influence of Firmino and James Milner on the pitch.
So far, only two names have officially join Liverpool, I don't think Jurgen Klopp will stop here

Agree, I also don't think Liverpool's decline in performance last season was due to Mane's departure. Because after all, even though for example Mane still played at Liverpool last season too, Liverpool's performance could still drop, and we won't know what will happen for sure either. Because I believe, at least every team will experience a decline in performance but because Liverpool's decline in performance occurred after Mane left, then of course most of them will think that losing Mane greatly affected Liverpool's performance. Even though in fact it may not be at all, because in the end as time goes by Liverpool's performance begins to improve and as for the results and performance next season, whether that has an effect also because of Firminho's departure, it is interesting to wait.

Last season Ten Hag quite often played Marcus Rashford as a center forward when needed there. Marcus Rashford is also often played as a left winger, but when played as a center forward he can also play well. Maybe Ten Hag can force Marcus Rashford to play more as a centre-forward than on the left wing, but I don't think Manchester United need to do that if they manage to sign a great striker.

Manchester United actually have Anthony Martial as a centre-forward, but he's not very good about his form. If Kane joins Manchester United, then of course Manchester United's strength is really very dangerous next season. The problem is, Kane appears to be fiercely loyal to Tottenham.

Does ten Hagu need a centre-forward? It seems to me that Rashford and Anthony look great in the Manchester United offensive line. In addition, Rashford has often been a center forward in the ten Hag formation and I think he looked very good. He is still very young and has room to grow, so I think he has the potential to reach the level of Kane. Martial also played in the center of attack, but he still has a lot of injuries.
