LW: Martial. Just like many others in the side, he has benefitted a lot under Ole. He lacked confidence under Mourinho, constantly had to track back and against the big teams ended up playing almost as a wingback and not a winger.

Now, he has much more clarity as to what his role in the team is, he doesn't get shuffled around and has made the left wing position his own. He scores, he can dribble and has an eye for spotting the runs of his teammates, he has been phenomenal for United this season and hence he keeps his place in the team.

ST: Marcus Rashford. 3 years ago Rashford broke onto the scene and was touted to Manchester United's leading man for years to come. Solsjkaer's appointment made this prophecy come true.

Rashford has overtaken Lukaku in the pecking order and is now the first choice striker. Boy, has he taken this opportunity with both hands. He's running at defenders, fearlessly trying new things, drifting wide, cutting in, basically doing it all. His pace and skill on the ball make it much easier for him to interchange positions with his teammates, creating space for others and showing the world that he has arrived and is here to stay.

The last piece of the puzzle

RW: Jadon Sancho. Sancho has had quite a year. From deciding to leave Manchester City and going abroad, to currently having the most assists among anyone from the top five leagues. He has exploded in Dortmund since shifting there. He has become a first-team regular, displacing Pulisic from the team. United has had an issue on the right wing since quite a while. Mata is just too slow to play on the wing while Lingard is better suited to playing closer to the middle of the field. Rashford and Martial have also been tasked with filling in there. Sancho would definitely solve all these issues. His directness of play, raw speed and impeccable ability on the ball is the reason United seem ready to go all out to sign him. Given his age, he could be a top player for the next decade to come. His call up to the national team also shows how much faith everyone has in him. He could just be the final piece of the puzzle for Manchester United to get back to their glory days.
