Manchester United<\/a> legends Paul Scholes<\/a> and Nicky Butt<\/a> both agree on the Arsenal<\/a> star they would love their old club to sign if money were no object. <\/p>\n

The Red Devils are in the midst of another under-par season during which they have struggled for consistency under the management of Ruben Amorim<\/a>. <\/p>\n

While there have been unmistakable signs of progress, United\u2019s squad remains ill-equipped to mount a sustained challenge for a top four spot, let alone a title challenge.<\/p>\n

United invested heavily over the summer strengthening their forward line with the likes of Bryan Mbeumo<\/a>, Matheus Cunha<\/a> and Benjamin Sesko<\/a> costing a combined total of nearly \u00a3200million. <\/p>\n

The new recruits have all shown a measure of promise but United\u2019s midfield, in particular, remains a work in progress. <\/p>\n

Manuel Ugarte has struggled to convince <\/a>he is cut out for the Premier League following his move last January from PSG, while Kobbie Mainoo has been on the fringes<\/a> over the course of the last couple of months.<\/p>\n

Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes remain United\u2019s first choice pairing but their long-term futures are both matters of increasing speculation.<\/p>\n
