Manchester United Transfers: 5 Players Who Could Bring Titles To Old Trafford
Although Manchester United is still undefeated domestically, many will argue that the team needs strengthening in order to return to former glory.
Although the team is currently riding a boost of form, it will undoubtedly require strengthening in order to challenge for the European crown.
This slideshow will focus on five players United need to add to their current roster.
Joe Hart
1 of 5
With the imminent retirement of Edwin Van Der Sar fast approaching, and the recent signing of inexperienced goalkeeper Anders Lindegaard, United still lack a dominant presence between the sticks.
Joe Hart, although an unlikely signing, represents a perfect candidate for the job. Hart is young, English, and undoubtedly talented.
Joe Hart can only get better, and a move to United would help take his career to the next level.
David Luiz
2 of 5
The Manchester United defense needs an injection of youth in the defensive line. David Luiz can prove to be the perfect replacement for the solid yet aging Rio.
Strong yet quick, David Luiz will help bring stability and security to the United back-line.
David Luiz has recently featured in the Brazilian starting line-up, cracking Fergie's XI would be his next challenge.
Thiago Alcantara
3 of 5
With Barcelona's center midfield position already filled, it would be hard to envision talented young
Thiago asserting himself in Guardiola's XI. Thiago would bring some Barca flair to United's midfield.
Almost 20, Thiago is very young and he is already drawing comparisons to Xavi. With the aging Giggs and Scholes and the injury-prone Fletcher, Thiago wouldn't have too much of a hard time making Fergie's list.
What a midfield it would be with Thiago and Anderson in the middle, and Nani and Sanchez on the sides.
Alexis Sanchez
4 of 5
To complete the future midfield, Sanchez would be the one.
Speed, flair, and agility describe the young Chilean. While Antonio Valencia is a good player, most will agree that Alexis is superior, both in the present and as a player for the future.
Fergie knows how to make good wingers, and he has the power to turn Sanchez into the next Cristiano Ronaldo.
Karim Benzema
5 of 5
Karim Benzema is an extremely talented young player who has befallen a tough run of form (remind you of anyone?) and who knows how long it will last.
But what is certain is that he will recover from it, and when he does, he will score goals like crazy.
My advice is to sell Berbatov while he's hot and get as much money for him as you can, and bring in Benzema while he's cold to get him for as cheap as possible. It's like the old Wall Street philosophy: Buy low, sell high.
With an excellent midfield to feed them, Rooney and Benzema could be the most prolific goal-scoring pair in history.
