If faced with a choice I think Manchester United need a defender, I'm not saying the current players are bad but it's not a bad idea to prepare a better squad. Last season's experience should be an example of the failure of the defensive line even though there are many reasons there. Based on Man United transfer records this season, they are prioritizing the attack line by spending 150 million while for their defense line they only spent 4 million + new players from the academy. I don't understand why the coach is so confident in the current defense line or maybe he has other plans?
I’m also wonder why Ruben is sticking with his current defensive line, because looking at Man United’s defenders, it’s hard to say the composition is good enough. I feel it’s still lacking this season, and they need to bring in at least one more player to strengthen the back line. especially after watching Man United’s match against Arsenal yesterday, the defense looked chaotic and uncoordinated, that’s not a good sign, particularly if they aim to finish in a high position in the EPL this season.
