Former England international, Gary Neville has said that Manchester United “can get a lot better” and believes that Barcelona striker Luis Suarez or Atletico Madrid star Antoine Griezmann would be ideal to help them reach their potential.
Jose Mourinho’s men have set a terrific pace at the beginning of the season, behind neighbours City in the Premier League only on goal difference and having started their Champions League campaign by defeating Basel.
Among the players he has recommended is France international Griezmann, who was strongly linked with United in the summer, only to have Atleti’s transfer ban complicate matters.
“I’d like to see a winger who can beat a man and get everyone on the edge of their seat.
“Having been in Spain for four months, I love Griezmann. I would love to see Griezmann at United. He’s quick, he’s inventive, he can beat players, he can score goals.
“Suarez, even though he played for Liverpool, is a United player,” he added. “It’s arrogance to say that but he’s fantastic. He scores goals, he’s aggressive, he chases every ball down.”
However, Manchester United forwards, Romelu Lukaku, Antonio Martial, and Marcus Rashford have all been firing all cylinders with all three sharing a total of seventeen goals amongst themselves so far in all competitions this season.
Neville’s need for a striker, however, may not be overlooked by the manager, Mourinho who is yet to comment on the advice so far.
