Three Reasons Why Moyes Should Try Again For This Ex Arsenal Captain

I think I speak for everyone when I say that I am sick of hearing rumours linking Manchester United with players they cannot possibly sign, but they do need some big signings. Some one like Cesc Fabregas who was linked with them in summer. Lets see some reasons why Moyes should splash cash of former Arsenal captain,

Fabregas

1. Lack of Midfield Talent

Manchester United’s midfield is currently a void lacking inspiration, creativity and talent with Marouane Fellaini the only one who can really offer something to a club. Anderson and Tom Cleverley are both border-lining on useless, and that is not good enough for a club of United’s stature. Fabregas could bring creativity, inspiration and talent in abundance, and along with Marouane Fellaini, they could create a midfield partnership of old, with one to win the ball and protect the defence, and the other to launch attacks. It would echo the Javier Mascherano – Xabi Alonso partnership at Liverpool in the Rafa Benitez era.

2. To Give The Fans Something To Celebrate

It seems currently that United fans would rather their club wasn’t linked with so many top players that they couldn’t attract as it makes their club look like a failure in the transfer market, and it is true, after settling for Shinji Kagawa last season after links with Luka Modric, Claudio Marchisio and Eden Hazard, the same happened this season, as they stated their interest in Cesc Fabregas, Arturo Vidal, Alex Song and Ander Herrera, but ended up with Marouane Fellaini. Should United be able to pull off a signing of the calibre of Fabregas, it may offer the fans a little bit of a distraction to their current league position and failure on the pitch, while it also may restore some faith in David Moyes.

3. To Show Manchester City, Arsenal and Chelsea That They Can Still Compete in the Transfer Market

The past few transfer windows have been dominated by the 2 London clubs and mega-rich Manchester City, as they have bought the likes of Eden Hazard, Oscar, Mesut Ozil, Fernandinho and Alvaro Negredo into English football while United’s most noteworthy addition is the overpriced Marouane Fellaini who set the Red Devils back around £28m, more than City paid for their midfield linchpin and Spanish international, David Silva. If Manchester United fail once again to bring in a player of any real stature, it will be 2 failures in a row, something that they may not be able to survive. The main cause for concern is that to attract the big names, you must be competing for the league title, and as Moyes’ men currently sit in 9th, their points total has them closer to 19th placed Crystal Palace than league leaders Arsenal.
