This article speculates on how Manchester United's starting lineup could look if they make three key signings in the January transfer window. Focusing on additions to the wing-back positions, the article highlights potential targets like Sporting's Quenda and analyzes their fit within manager Amorim's tactics.
If Manchester United could complete a Christmas miracle in the upcoming transfer window, this is how their starting line-up could look. As such, some square pegs have been forced into round holes leading to inconsistent results. The clear highlight of Amorim 's premiership so far was a brilliant 2-1 away victory at worst result of his tenure - a 3-0 home defeat to AFC Bournemouth. After such a rollercoaster month, the Portuguese head coach will be desperate to add his own stamp on this squad.
Since he became co-owner, Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been undertaking cost-cutting measures to help lessen the financial pressure on the Reds. We have decided to take a look at who United could sign in January to create a dream starting line-up for Amorim. We have chosen three players to add into this Reds team despite there being an argument for a whole new starting XI being needed but we wanted to keep some realism. He has his detractors but Onana is probably the best goalkeeper that United could have at the moment. He still needs to work on his concentration at times though to avoid silly mistakes which have crept into his game. United need players who can fit into the wing-back roles as a priority and Sporting's Quenda would be ideal for that position. Amorim managed to shape the teenager to play that role and he would surely be a signing that Ineos would approve of considering his age and potential resale value. Perhaps not his most comfortable position on the pitch but considering he has been the standout player from Ten Hag's last round of summer transfers, he needs a place in this team. The right wing-back role could work for Mazraoui but if Quenda is signed, he may have to adapt to right centre-back duties instead. The young Frenchman has the potential to live up to the Raphael Varane comparisons if he continues to work hard. Yoro has been dependable if unspectacular since returning from injury but with a few more minutes under his belt, he could become a regular
