Left backs and midfielders needed - your views on squad improvements
[BBC] [Getty Images] We asked for your views on the areas of Manchester United's squad that you feel can improve the final month of the transfer window. You can see United's options and BBC Sport's Simon Stone's take on things on the post above. Here are some of your comments: Robert: Joshua Zirkzee and Manuel Ugarte have had their chances but failed to deliver. They must move on to free up space for youngsters to have a go at it this season. Benjamin Sesko is still a question mark for me, and although he looks like he has potential he must make the most of this new season if he is to wear the shirt for more seasons after that. Chris: We can't count on Matthijs De Ligt or Lisandro Martinez to be fit enough to play a full season and Luke Shaw has also had his issues so another centre back and left back should be prioritised. Mason Mount always impresses in pre-season but then unfortunately suffers an injury that keeps him out so another centre midfielder is needed too. If I'm getting greedy, an experienced striker to help Sesko too! Paolo: United desperately need another high-quality midfielder. Although we've already signed Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans, those two players technically only replace a leaving Casemiro and an injured Ugarte. United need squad depth this season to compete in all four competitions, and we need a proper number six. I also think another left back is due because Shaw is injury prone and Patrick Dorgu is shaky defensively, and maybe a backup striker if Zirkzee goes. Christine: Sell or loan out Marcus Rashford and buy a new left winger and a new left back. Spend the money on Lewis Hall who will be the best left back for the next 10 years. Don't be deluded by Mount playing well in pre-season games in midfield, as soon as he sees a green blade of grass when the season starts he will be injured. United need to sign a top-quality midfielder and go for Eduardo Camavinga or Aurelien Tchouameni from Real Madrid. If there is any funds left a striker would be a positive to support Sesko. Ollie Watkins or Ivan Toney would be good options, giving a lot of experience to the squad.
