Samuel Luckhurst has raised issues over Manchester United’s attacking choices, as the brand new season attracts ever nearer.
Luckhurst reviews the hierarchy on the membership are conscious of the shortage of choices, presently accessible to Erik Ten Hag, with just some weeks left of the summer time window.
“Excessive-ranking sources on the membership concede United must improve their ahead line to fulfill supervisor Erik ten Hag’s demand for confirmed choices”
Luckhurst continues, “There may be an acceptance at Manchester United they’re in need of power in depth up entrance as they take into account attacking reinforcements.”
Having let a raft of attacking choices depart the membership this summer time and the persevering with uncertainty of Cristiano Ronaldo’s future, the shortage of risk is regarding Ten Hag.
United are prone to line up with a entrance three of Jadon Sancho, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford, who for all their expertise, usually are not anticipated to place up the person numbers of a confirmed purpose scorer.
The dearth of depth behind the aforementioned can be one thing that can concern Ten Hag, with Luckhurst underlining the shortage of confirmed high quality within the ranks.
“Elanga has struggled for kind since scoring within the Champions League round-of-16 draw with Atletico in February – his final membership purpose.”
“Tahith Chong‘s taking part in time has mystified observers and he was pilloried for his toothless efficiency towards Vallecano on Sunday”
Alejandro Garnacho loved a nice marketing campaign for the below 21’s final day out and is maybe seen because the brightest spark behind the primary XI, having impressed in his pre-season flashes.
“Garnacho thrived on his first look in pre-season towards Vallecano and drew reward from Ten Hag afterwards” Luckhurst states.
Nonetheless, Garnacho is but to start out a significant sport for United and at 18 years previous, it might be unfair to heap stress on the younger Argentine’s shoulders.
It’s believed the United deal-makers are working laborious on bringing attacking additions to the squad, with Ajax’s Antony and RB Salzburg’s Benjamin Sesko on the needed listing.
It’s not possible Ten Hag can have anybody by way of the door earlier than the season curtain raiser on Sunday however he might be determined for reinforcements earlier than the window shuts.
