The Manchester outfit could only manage two draws from their first three Premier League matches, while losing their solitary Capital One Cup game 4-0 to lowly Milton Keys Dons.

United, however, have been able to make quite a few big acquisitions this transfer window, spending around £150 million. Signings like Luke Shaw, Ander Herrera, Daley Blind, Marcos Rojo and Angel Di Maria are sure to bolster the squad.
