If the daily mail is to be believed, modric is looking for a move in the summer. I think he will be a good addition providing we can get a strong midfielder too in the mould of strootman or wanyama.
Hope we can finally strengthen midfield. I'm sure saf will do that.

Do we really need 2 cm's though?

Carrick and Cleverly are both pretty good, but we don't have any wingers who are good enough, unless Nani suddenly develops the consistency he has been lacking since he came to utd. Zaha is promising and will be good to have in the squad, but not a first choice starter.

Given that we don't have unlimited funds, I would expect at least one winger as a priority, hopefully two, along with one cm signing.

Having said that, Modric is effective out wide too, so he could potentially be signed to play both roles, playing wide some games and in the centre or even in the hole, other games depending on opposition and who else is available.

Carrick is the one top notch central midfielder we have. Anderson is far to injury prone, lacks stamina and has fitness issues in general. Cleverley will never be better than a squad player, he just isn't up to top European standars. He is full of energy, but is only an average passer, lacks pace and imagination. At nearly 24 he no longer is a kid. Kagawa is more effective in the hole and has yet to fully convince. Scholes should retire and Giggsy is pnly good for a game every 10 - 15 days and is only going to be playing for one more season. So I would say we are in need of two midfielders. We have never replaced the likes of Scholes and Keane. e Wanyama and Erikson/Gotze would raise us to ECL winners I'm sure. As for wingers Nani for all his inconsistany is a top player - sometimes. Danny W is far more effective out wide, with his lightening pace and surely Valencia can't be as bad this season as last. I do think Zaha has every chance of being good. We should sell Young though, he just isn't United class. At the moment our real weakness is our central midfield, I would prefer someone younger than Modric though to accompany a powerful athletic midfielder like Wanyama.

Before signing anymore midfield we definitely need to sell some one to make space, probably anderson otherwise we'll have to many midfield players

Will you change your name if such changes occur, saying that I don't think we will acquire 2 midfielders

I disagree bout Cleverly, while I don't see him ever being "world class" I think he is a very good player, and I think he will be an important player for us over the next few years. Like I said though, I do expect us to sign a central midfielder this summer.

I agree that Nani can be great, but unless he suddenly develops a bit of consistency, it's not often enough, and most gamed he is poor. Believe me, I would love to see him start performing more often.

Valencia is, in my opinion, too one dimensional, teams have figured out that all they have to do is stop him racing down the flank and putting in a cross.

In short, we need a winger at least as much as a cm, probably more.

Modric would be a bonus, he isn't needed at United like Strootman is
