MUFC Must Sign More Quality Players To Win EPL – Maguire

Manchester United defender has said that the club must recruit smartly in the upcoming window to mount a serious EPL title challenge next season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, even though the Red Devils have been on the right path since Carrick took over, the team is still short of the depth required to compete at the very top.

Maguire added that with Manchester City and Liverpool potentially facing periods of transition, MUFC can finally end its title drought.

His words, “We’re in a strong position. We’ve had a great few months under the manager. I feel like the squad is starting to look like something that is a strong squad. But this summer’s going to be big, really, really big. We need more players, we need better quality, we need players to come into the starting eleven.

And then when everything comes together, we’ll see where it is at the start of the season. We’ll have a good pre-season and be ready.

I always want to be part of a squad that I felt like could compete and the recruitment went well last year. We brought in some top players who helped us this year. And like I’ve always said, I think this summer’s going to be a big summer, I think we’ve got to recruit really well… We’re not in Europe this year, we’ve played 40 games at the end of the season, and we definitely need a bigger squad next year.

I think next season you look at it and I think we’ve got to be in the bracket where if we get the recruitment right and everything’s positive from now to the end of the season, and we keep going on the curve there’s no ceiling to where we can reach. We’ve got to be in the conversation to go and win the big trophies. Of course I feel like it is more open to win the Premier League this season.

Arsenal are in a strong position, of course. But, next year, come February, March, we don’t want to be adrift like we have been this year. We don’t really want to get carried away. If we were speaking about at the end of last season, you’d probably think we were a bit stupid, really.”

WOW.

Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.

Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.

The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
