Former Manchester United player and legend Lou Macari believes the Red Devils need to invest in players in January if they want to improve the results.
Manchester United grabbed their second win of the season, albeit an unconvincing one with a 1-0 scoreline against Leicester City. Solskjaer’s men took the kead in the seventh minute through a Marcus Rashford penalty and held on to the score till the kast minute.
Macari believes that such results won’t help in the long term and buying players in winter was the only way to improve.
“I thought in the last window, I thought there were players needed then,” he said.
“We didn’t bring the number in that I thought we should have brought in.”
“When you have an injury or two and you look at your squad and the bench, it then hits you that you are so short of numbers.”
“As the season goes on you will get people suspended, you’ll get more people injured.”
“There’s no doubt that when the next window opens, and we’re looking a bit far ahead now, that one or two players need to come in.”
“I’m happy we won but I wasn’t all that convinced about the performance,” he added.
“I thought that Leicester, with all the possession they had, didn’t really convince that they were going to open the door and get a goal.”
“If they had got a little break at some stage in the game then they may have got that goal, it may have been 1-1 and we’d be sat here thinking a lot different.”
“We have won the game, got three points and it pushes you up the table.”
