As for the squad I think we've got a squad full of good players but no great players. Right now there's a real lack of proven top quality in that squad a lot of money has been spent but I don't look at the squad and think wow that's a fantastic squad.
Keeper - he's a good keeper he isn't a brilliant one. Good with his feet, makes some good saves but he has a mistake in him.
Defenders - they're all good defenders but do any of them are brilliant? I don't think so with the exception of Shaw who is never fit.
Midfield - Still a mess and a massive weakness that wasn't addressed in the summer.
Attack - Rashford is in his prime years now but he's still a streaky player that you can't really rely on and the rest are young players who are struggling for consistency.
To me there's still big money that has to be spent on the midfield ASAP no matter who the manager is we are miles behind the top sides in this area.
As for the attack they really need the players they've spent money on so far to come good but fans are rightfully worried as there's little evidence they will. Antony, Mount, Hojlund and Zirkzee so far have made little impact it's really the kids who've come through who've carried the team from a goals point of view.
