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.
Ruben Amorim still looks confused to me and is still yet to know exactly what to do in this club so that he will be able to meet up with people's expectations, and I don’t think it will work that way. I think he should just do what he thinks will favour this club and his career because till now Manchester United is still facing a lot of challenges that really need to be fixed.
We even talk about the position they will finish the season in; we can only talk about that part when a team is performing well, but for Manchester United right now there is no sign that this team will be as good as we want this season. I just hope Ruben Amorim will get things done this season.
