Manchester United grabbed many eyeballs in the summer by securing the signing of Cristiano Ronaldo back into the club. Ronaldo's return at Old Trafford was a big boost for Ole Gunner Solskjaer as a world class signing would only bolster the squad.
Unfortunately, Manchester United look far from their best so far this campaign. With a recent slump in their form, the Red Devils are sixth in the Premier League table with 14 points from their eight matches. Solskjaer's men are without a win in their last three league games, indicating their poor form at the moment.
Things weren't looking good for Manchester United in the Champions League either. They were third in the group before securing a comeback 3-2 win over Atalanta on Matchday 3. This win took them to the top of the group.

Creative footballers are always pivotal for top teams. With their creativity on the pitch, these players help create goals and have a decisive impact on the tie. In a star studded squad, Manchester United have some creative players of their own. On that note, let us take a look at
Manchester United's 5 best creative players right now
#5 Mason Greenwood
Mason Greenwood is one of Manchester United's rising talents. The 20-year old attacker has proven himself to be a starter in Ole Gunner Solskjaer's squad with some powerful displays. Greenwood made his breakthrough into the first team last season, bagging 12 goals and six assists.
Greenwood is extremely versatile and can serve in any position in the attack. The English forward initially started out as a midfielder but moved up in the formation. He has played both on the flanks and as a centre-forward under Solskjaer, demostrating his flexibility.
With his hunger to score goals, Greenwood can use both his feet to glide past defenders. The youngster remains extremely efficient in the final third, often moving into dangerous areas and creating space for his team. A player who can both score and create is rare and Greenwood will only get better with experience.
#4 Marcus Rashford
Marcus Rashford is a gifted footballer and remains one of Manchester United's most integral players. Following in Cristiano Ronaldo's footsteps, Rashford has enjoyed a steady rise from United's academy. He has now become one of the key players for the first team.
On the left wing, Rashford is very direct with his offensive approach. The 23-year old likes to cut inside from the left with his pace and often moves centrally to dislodge opponent's defense. Rashford is not just a goalscorer, he drops deep to collect the ball and create space for his teammates.
Rashford has already racked up 89 goals and 56 assists for Manchester United in all competitions.
#3 Jadon Sancho
Since arriving from Borussia Dortmund, Jadon Sancho has yet to settle into the Premier League. Although he is yet to show his true potential for Manchester United, the sky is the limit for Sancho. The forward arrived after bagging 50 goals and 64 assists during his time at Dortmund.
Sancho possesses blistering pace and magnificent flair on the ball. The 21-year-old can beat defenders with his trickery and open up defenses with his venomous runs forward. Sancho is also extremely versatile - he can play on both flanks and be decisive with his caliber. His crossing ability from wide areas is a bonus but is equally threatening to opponents' defense.
The English top flight is extremely difficult for youngsters but a player of Sancho's caliber will only grow with experience.
#2 Bruno Fernandes
Bruno Fernandes has showcased his might for Manchester United, rising to become one of the best midfielders in the Premier League. The Portuguese functions as an attacking midfielder and wreaks havoc into opponent's defense with his abilities.
Bruno is direct in his playmaking, known for penetrating defense with his vicious through balls. The 27-year-old tends to be more direct during attacks and attempts to find his teammates or go for goal himself in the final third. Bruno does not shy away from responsibilities as the playmaker is one of the most hardworking among his teammates.
Bruno was one of the best players for the Red Devils in the previous campaign, creating plenty of chances for the forwards. He has won Manchester United's 'Player of the season' award twice in a row. The midfielder scored 28 goals and assisted another 17 in all competitions for Manchester United in his last campaign.
#1 Paul Pogba
Having been a key player in Manchester United's success in recent years, Paul Pogba needs no introduction. Pogba has a vast skillset in his arsenal which makes him a complete midfield package.
The French midfielder can operate as a deep-lying playmaker or box-to-box midfielder, which shows his versatility. Pogba is an energetic presence in Manchester United's midfield and often sets up goals with his creativity.
Pogba's vision and tendency to provide a spectacle sets him apart from his competitors. With a unique mix of superior ball-shielding ability and terrific passing range, the 28-year old remains the main creative outlet for the Red Devils.
Pogba has already bagged 7 assists in the Premier League this season in just eight appearances.
