The absence of a creative spark in Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side clear for all to see with the Red Devils playing 13 matches this season in all competitions but only scoring more than one goal in a single game on two occasions.

That came in the opening weekend of the season against Chelsea (4-0) and most recently in a 3-1 success at Norwich. United icon Ryan Giggs, and current Wales manager has been impressed with Solskjaer’s recruitment but says he needs the funds to bring in another five or six players’ to enhance the squad emphasizing his former side’s lack of innovation as an issue.

“We need to bring quality in,” Giggs told the United Stand. ”Ole has brought three in who are all doing well. His dealings have been very good so far. “Give him the money other managers have had to get Man United players.  Get another five or six players like that in we will see a real difference.

They are missing that creative player. It is no coincidence; the best performances have been against good teams. “The lesser teams are always harder to break down.”

Christian Eriksen:

United legend Paul Scholes is a big fan of the German midfielder and believes he is an ideal short-term solution for Solskjaer. Ozil has been left out of Arsenal boss Unai Emery’s last five matchday squads, but Scholes maintains that the experienced playmaker has the quality to be an asset at Old Trafford.

“I can’t understand it. I think he’s a player who can link a team together. I think he’s got great quality, he’s shown that in his career. He could be an answer short term, I don’t know. I think that would be up to him ultimately if he wants to take a pay cut. I think he’s the type of player, short term, that Man United could do with.”

While Ozil’s form has been erratic at the Emirates over the years, he has the uncanny knack of creating something out of nothing and turning a game on its head something United could desperately do with right now.

Christian Eriksen:

This particular transfer saga continues to rumble on, with United long-term admirers of the Dane. Eriksen made it clear publicly he wanted to leave Tottenham in the summer in order to take up a new challenge and that stance hasn’t changed. Question marks have already been raised over Eriksen’s commitment and desire this season, and with his contract expiring at the end of the season a summer exit is inevitable.

However, Spurs could be tempting to cash-in on the 27-year-old in January, though there is no guarantee Eriksen would agree to that. It’s also been reported he would prefer a switch abroad instead of Premier League relocation.

James Maddison:

Man United raided Leicester for Harry Maguire in to shore up their defense and could well turn to the Foxes again very soon to ignite that creative spark in the form of Maddison. While the 22-year-old is yet to receive senior international recognition for England, he has made a major impression on the Premier League since making a £24m move from Norwich in June 2018.

The Leicester City No.10 scored seven goals and provided as many assists in 35 league appearances in 2018/19 and was also the only player to create 100 goal scoring chances in the top flight last term. It wouldn’t be much of a surprise to see Maddison lining up for the Red Devils this time next year as he continues his impressive form into the current campaign.

Hakim Ziyech:

United continues to have a tentative interest in the Ajax winger, who has been a revelation for the past 18 months in Amsterdam. Ajax is widely recognized for their talent factory, but have already lost the likes of Frenkie De Jong and Matthijs De Light in the last few months. And you feel now it is just a matter of time before Ziyech is on his way to pastures new.

The Moroccan international also played a pivotal role in the Dutch giants reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League last season. He did, though, sign a new contract in August, lasting until 2022, and removing a £26m release clause. Manchester United might also have a rival for his signature in Tottenham after former player Rafael van der Vaart messaged Chairman Daniel Levy about signing the creative talent.

Jadon Sancho:

One of the world’s most prestigious youngsters, the Borussia Dortmund starlet would not be cheap. The Bundesliga side has reportedly slapped a £100m price-tag on the former Manchester City youth ace. Old Trafford chiefs are determined to being Sancho back to the Premier League and have not been afraid to assert their financial muscle in the transfer market in recent times.

That was demonstrated when they worked out £130m to sign defensive reinforcements such as the aforementioned Maguire and Aaron Wan-Bissaka in the summer transfer window. While he’s winger by trade, his natural flair for coming inside and laying the ball on a plate for team-mates will alleviate the need for such a creative No.10 in the short term.
