2. Ability to score goals
Garay possesses an excellent technical ability, and will provide a South American flair to an otherwise straightforward back-line. To top it all off, Garay has the ability to get crucial goals which may come in handy, especially with United traditionally relying on getting goals from all over the pitch.
Garay scored 9 goals in 30 league appearances for Racing Santander in the 2006/07 season, which was his most prolific by far. He has scored a total of 23 goals in 260 appearances for club and country, and with United’s high quality set-piece specialists, he can become a dangerous proposition for opposition defences.
