#2. Central Midfield
Manchester United's lack of goals is attributed to their static midfield. The Red Devils have scored 51 goals in 27 league matches representing a goal ratio of just 1.9 goals per match. Manchester United have scored fewer goals than third place Liverpool and fifth place Tottenham who have scored 61 and 52 goals respectively.
They have scored the same number of goals as sixth place Arsenal. For the Red Devils to mount a serious challenge next season, they need to beef up their central midfield to inject creativity in their game.
A new central midfielder will get the best out of Paul Pogba and improve the Manchester United side. The Frenchman flourished at Juventus alongside midfield maestros like Andrea Pirlo, Arturo Vidal and Claudio Marchisio. With Paul Pogba in top form, Manchester United 's creativity in the final third will increase leading to many more goals.
Potential targets: Marco Verrati, Casemiro, Maxi Lopez
