Good Morning Ed002,
I know January is still a few months away, but do you know if United will be active during the transfer window, especially losing a player to a long term injury? Or will LVG just try to cover the position with his adaptable squad?
If we are going to be actively looking for players, are you able to give us an idea of positions, and possible players?
Many Thanks
{Ed002's Note - They need to address the centre back situation, this was probably the real mistake of the summer. Starting out looking for one and possibly even two centre backs and getting nothing was probably disappointing for many. Hummels was the primary although unrealistic target. There was a simple obtainable solution with Garay and Kongolo that could have been completed very early on. Even as a last minute buy, the affordable Nkoulou was being touted around. The club will I am sure look to adding a centre back in January.}

Thank you Ed, appreciate your time and info :)

I'd be happy with Kongolo. My top target would be Stones though. I think it would be excellent for us and England to have Smalling and Stones at the same club.

Great shout Wallace, mentioned him before. I would have loved van Dijk myself but fair play to him as I don't think he was willing to possibly just be a squad player.
