Manchester United looked to have addressed the main weaknesses in its squad and laid the foundations for a potential title bid in the English Premier League by spending big money on a new goalkeeper and striker.
Then there’s the third offseason signing, Mason Mount, who has slotted in as one of two No. 8s alongside Bruno Fernandes, ahead of holding midfielder Casemiro. The new midfield set-up has looked imbalanced so far and is a work in progress, with that transition facing a delay since Mount picked up an injury that might rule him out for up to six weeks.
Instead, a summer of paralysis. There’s eight days to go before the window shuts and United might not add another player to the squad, despite frequent speculation — as there always is with United — about incomings. However, Forest didn’t roll over when it was losing at Arsenal 2-1 on the opening weekend of this season, and United has been far from convincing so far.
In central midfield, will there be enough energy when, as is likely, Christian Eriksen joins Fernandes and Casemiro in the absence of Mount?
