Predicting who Manchester United will be linked with signing next is becoming just as difficult a task as correctly picking out Saturday night's winning Lotto numbers.
In a week that has seen United lose their Premier League opener and be forced into an embarrassing transfer climbdown because of an angry backlash from the supporters, it is impossible to predict what the club will do next in their efforts to add fresh blood to Erik ten Hag's squad. United's interest in bringing Marko Arnautovic to the club disappeared as quickly as it emerged, but it is a moment in the club's recent history that won't be forgotten any time soon.
The transfer window closes in under a month and United, so far, have only managed to get three new faces through the door. No disrespect to Tyrell Malacia, Lisandro Martinez and Christian Eriksen, but it has hardly inspired United's fans to believe that a successful first season of the Ten Hag era lies ahead, particularly after Sunday's 2-1 defeat by Brighton.
