If you could have one player in the January window.

This is a player who would improve us so much, probably the best young-ish midfielder in Europe IMO, Juventus got him dirt cheap when it was obvious he was a great talent. Better than Garcia, Barry, Rodwell, and De Jong.

Getting Chile: Man United monitoring Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal
The dynamic midfielder is also on the radar of Manchester City and Real Madrid - while at around £40million he won't come cheap

Manchester United are interested in signing Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal, according to reports from Italy.

The Chile international scored for the Serie A champions against Chelsea in the opening group game of the Champions League last week.

The 25-year-old began his career in Europe with a four-year spell with Bayern Leverkeusen, helping the German side to a second placed finish in the Bundesliga before earning a £10.5m move to the Old Lady.

United are understood to be impressed by the dynamic midfielder as they continue to search for a central player in the Roy Keane mould. The club are reported to have contacted Juventus about Vidal's availabilty.

However, United are expected top face competition from Real Madrid and Manchester City in the chase for the player who is valued at £40m by Juventus.

It has been suggested that Juventus would be willing to accept an offer close to that figure, and would not stand in the player’s way should a considerable offer come in from Spain or England.

he's almost better than all of them combined, lol

The beast of a player

Yes, love watching him, he seems almost like a perfect midfielder who can do anything. I wish we had gone for him, maybe we still will but not at that price. If Mario doesn't show consistency maybe we can offer him and some coin for Vidal, Juve and their shortage of strike options would surely be tempted to have Italy's new poster boy.

Benat's form for Betis so far this season is even better than last season which earned him a call-up for Spain. He is possibly the closest thing to Xabi Alonso in Spain and makes some incredible passes from deep. 3 assists in 6 games for Betis this season and 1 assist in 1 game for Spain. Every time I watch him I'm really impressed, he is always busy and deadly off free kicks plus very intelligent. I think he'd be a good option for us and quite cheap (Betis are debt ridden), wouldn't start every game but would be a direct replacement for Pizarro and is much younger and more mobile. Just no more strictly defensive midfielders please, we have too many who are somewhat alike.
