Creativity in midfield
Moyes realised upon taking over the team that central midfield lacked mobility and creativity, in defence of the 50-year-old, but it wasn’t sorted in the transfer market.
Between the manager and new chief executive Ed Woodward they failed to land Thiago Alcantara, Cesc Fabregas and Ander Herrera and in the end a desperate £27.5m was bid for Marouane Fellaini.
The Belgian has been uninspiring in the middle of the park and Michael Carrick and Tom Cleverley have also failed to impress, meaning new signings are required.
