You're forgetting they have a defense the paralympic blind football team could get at.

Their defence's biggest problem is the fact there's no semblance protection from the midfield.
But if they played something like this -
New Keeper
Varane Maguire Martinez
Dalot Casemiro Fred Shaw
Bruno Ronaldo Sancho
Or
New Keeper
Dalot Varane Maguire Martinez
Bruno Casemiro Fred
Sancho Ronaldo Antony/Martial/Rashford
That's capable of 4th/5th.

If they get beat as expected this Monday and arsenal have won they’ll be 9 points clear already. No matter who they sign that’s a lot to catch up on with their shit defence and lacklustre attack. Plus wins for spurs and Chelsea means they’ll be 7 behind both of those too.If they got Casemiro and De Jong, they'd probably be top 4 contenders with Arsenal, Spurs and Chelsea.
It would be a very good start.
But they're not going to. They'll get Casemiro, think job done, then pair him with McTominay and Fred and it's a half measure.
I think United actually need to do the opposite to what you're suggesting. They don't need to build a team over 3 years, they need to replace 8 players in one window to completely reset the culture. What they've done for the last 5 years is bring in one good player a season, and they get brought down and corrupted by the rest of the group by the time the next guy arrives.
Also they won't be able to do anything with De Gea as the keeper. He just can't play out from the back, so until he's gone they're treading water at best.
Personally I think top 4 has already gone for them.
Still think it's shite mate but let's see how it plays out.
They finished 6th last year, so I don't know how much you expect them to fall after buying 3 or 4 players and obviously upgrading on the PE teacher as manager.

They’ll not be buying a new keeper either. It’s not a superstar position.Their defence's biggest problem is the fact there's no semblance protection from the midfield.

It's not the title race, 4th is probably only going to get 65 points out of 114.
There's loads more leeway for starting slowly and catching up.

With a goal difference of 0!! They’ll be below 8th imo. Other teams have strengthened better without the big signingsThey finished 6th last year, so I don't know how much you expect them to fall after buying 3 or 4 players and obviously upgrading on the PE teacher as manager.
