The Red Devils have won only three Premier League games so far this season

Jose Mourinho prioritized bolstering Manchester United squad in the summer transfer window after not winning a single silverware last season. They signed Fred, Diogo Dalot and Lee Grant before the transfer deadline.

However, the Portuguese was not happy with the outcome of the transfer window as he wanted few more players especially a high profile centre-back and a direct, fast winger to complete his squad.

After losing 2 consecutive games in the Premier League, the Red Devils were looking to be back on track after winning three games in a trot in the league and Champions League.

The Premier League giants were looking to make it 4 on a run against Wolves on Saturday and started positively after Fred opened the scoring, his first for the club. But they were held to a draw after they conceded a goal in the second-half, much to the frustration of the Portuguese.

Marouane Fellani, who played all the 90 minutes admitted that he was not happy with the side’s performance and believes they lacked energy.

“We are very disappointed today, but we have to do better,” he told MUTV.

“I think we have to press more and we have to be more energetic, and we have to run forward. We didn’t today and when we have the chance we have to score and we didn’t today”.

The Belgian added: “A bit, but it is not the reason (we lost). I think a lot of team played twice a week and we have to be ready, we have to be energetic and want to win the games.

“They are a good team, we know they play football, they are dangerous, they are energetic. But we are very disappointed today.

“We have to start again, we have a game on Tuesday and we have to focus quickly on this game and look forward.”

United will face Derby County in the League Cup on Tuesday and will be looking to get back to winning ways.

The 19 year old played all 90 minutes against Young Boys in the Champions League

Diogo Dalot joined Manchester United from Porto for a reported fee of £19 million during the summer transfer window. He was one of the three signings along with Fred and Lee Grant.

The 19 year old came through the academy ranks of the Portuguese giants and made his senior debut for them back in 2017. He was very impressive for them since making his senior debut and has been rated very highly in his country.

But the right-back didn’t feature in the 5 Premier League fixtures as he has been eased into the first team fold at Old Trafford following a knee injury he picked up before his move.

He finally made his debut against Young Boys in the Champions League on Wednesday ad Antonio Valencia was left behind in England as Jose Mourinho fearing the synthetic pitch at the Stade de Suisse could have aggravated the Ecuadorian’s own long-standing knee injury.

The defender played all the 90 minutes and was very impressive as the Red Devils swept aside Young Boys 3-0 in their Champions League opener.

Paul Pogba admitted that he is very proud of Dalot after his performance and insisted that his teammates were also impressed by him.

“For a debut he did really well,” said Pogba as quoted by Mirror.

“He suited the team and I’m very happy to see him play like that. All the players were all really proud of him.”

Even Mourinho was full of praise for him and Luke Shaw, who also played full 90 minutes and won a penalty for the team.

The Portuguese said: ‘I think Diogo and Luke [Shaw] played very well – our danger came from both,’ Mourinho said after the routine victory.

‘They had fantastic movement, depth, crosses, assists, involved in the most dangerous actions and defended very well.

‘Both played very well but of course Luke has been here for a few years, while it was Diogo’s first match for the club after knee surgery.

‘I think it was a solid performance – you could see his potential. He’s a 19-year-old defender with more than 10 years to play for Manchester United.’

Another Premier League club are interested in signing him

Jose Mourinho prioritized signing a fast, direct winger during the summer transfer window as Manchester United lacks a proper right sided winger. Anthony Martial, Marcus Rashford and Alexis Sanchez all prefers to play in the left flank and wanted someone to play from the right.

The Red Devils were heavily linked with a move for the players like Willian, Ivan Perisic and Ante Rebic before the transfer deadline. But the club failed to sign any one much to the disappointment of the manager.

However, it has been suggested the the Portuguese is still keen to sign a winger and a high profile centre-back during the January transfer window in order to mount a Premier League title this season.

Manchester United have started to monitor Lille attacker Nicolas Pepe, according to TF1.

The winger joined the French side last summer for an undisclosed fee, signing a 5 year contract. He established himself as a regular for the club last season and managed to score an impressive 13 goals.

The Ivory Coast International has started the new campaign on fire  with four goals and three assists in his opening five Ligue 1 matches.

The 23 year old’s impressive performances have already attracted scouts from Sevilla and Arsenal. He even turned down the chance to leave LOSC in the summer, with Southampton and Lyon closest to securing his signature.

Mourinho’s side are ready to steal a march on their rivals by making a move. Lille know his signature is in high demand and are holding out for a £30m offer before they decide to let him leave.
