#1 Manchester United are Still a Work in Progress

2020 marks the starts of a new decade and as far as Manchester United are concerned, it is the seventh year since Sir Alex Ferguson stepped down as manager of the club. The interim period has been nothing short of a roller coaster ride and it is about time that the ride comes to a halt.

At a recent press conference, Solskjaer mentioned that the 2020s will be the decade where United reassert themselves as a global football powerhouse. Though that may seem like too much of a long-term target, the manager is fully aware of what his team are lacking at the moment. The only way Manchester United can achieve their goal for the decade is by breaking it down into smaller targets for each season. And despite a whirlwind season so far, United are still on track for a top-four finish in the Premier League and possible glory in the UEFA Europa League as well as the domestic knockout competitions. In conclusion, the opening few months of 2020 are crucial for Manchester United as it may go on to shape not just the rest of their season, but also the rest of their decade.
