I must be on my own here when I say this but I believe our priority signing should now be a Winger over a CB. Obviously I do think we need a new world class centre back, I believe that it is so much more important to get a pacey winger.

Although last season our central defence was leakey and often very poor, I definitely remember being more infuriated with our lack of killer instincts on the wings. Ashley Young mainly being the most frustrating winger was often a reason as to why our attacks were unsuccessful.

Now I am expecting people to completely disagree wit my view but its just what I believe. I am not saying United should not sign a centre back because I strongly believe that we need one, but I genuinely believe that with a pacey and clinical winger the interplay with Herrera, Mata, Januzaj and RVP could be breath taking!

Thoughts?

Joe, fair point but the defence conceded too many goals last year and we need to tighten up. We have plenty of attacking options and Januzaj will get a longer run this year. In terms of priority' it was CM, LB, CM, CH, LW. 1st 2 are done but LW may have to wait (or RW)

I agree, winger before centre half for sure, you score 3 we score 4

If we went out and bought Sanchez/Konoplyanka and Hummels. I would be very happy.

We need another cb after vidic and Rio leaving and smalling Jones and Evans r to injury prone to really on 4 such an important season

Not at all! CB is vital! We were bad enough last season as it is with Vida and Rio in! You can't trust Smalling, jones and Evans. CB is essential! Although we need to sell young and bring in a wide, pact, direct forward aswell.

The best sides are built on a solid foundation, so I hope we buy a really good commanding centre half (and another centre mid!) before we buy a winger
I'm hoping for Hummels, but it does seem unlikely; however, if you had asked me on Monday would we have Herrera and Shaw in the bag by the end of the week I would have said no chance!

I actually think the next signing will be Vidal; have I gone mad with all the excitement?
