Manchester United are not back *yet*, but they are on track as they are making the right steps regarding their next marquee signing\u2026<\/p>\n
It has been a pretty great couple of weeks for Man Utd<\/a>, with the first back-to-back Premier League wins under Ruben Amorim becoming three straight victories over the weekend.<\/p>\n Credit should go to Amorim<\/a> as he has made slight tweaks to his approach to make his system more effective and this has borne fruit against Sunderland, Liverpool and Brighton.<\/p>\n Amorim is far from out of the woods, but for the first time in his tenure, it feels like the Red Devils are on an upward curve and can mount a sustained push for Champions League qualification this term.<\/p>\n This is largely down to Man Utd bucking a long-term trend by having a very successful transfer window with a near-perfect hit rate.<\/p>\n READ:\u00a0Premier League winners and losers: Sunderland, Nuno, Arsenal, Wolves, Brentford, Liverpool and more<\/a><\/p>\n Summer signings Senne Lammens, Benjamin Sesko, Bryan Mbeumo and Matheus Cunha have forced a U-turn on the transfer debate as winners Man Utd actually had a better window than losers Liverpool.<\/a><\/p>\n All four players have settled nicely in recent weeks and have made a great impact on their winning run, while Man Utd also did a good job at offloading unwanted talents on their terms.<\/p>\n Still, Man Utd\u2019s summer transfer window was not perfect as they failed to sign a quality No.6.<\/p>\n The Red Devils did try to sign one as they pursued an audacious deal for Brighton\u2019s Carlos Baleba, though they opted against signing an alternative after being priced out of a \u00a3100m-plus transfer.<\/p>\n Without Baleba or another No.6, Bruno Fernandes and Casemiro have started together in most of Man Utd\u2019s games and although the Brazilian\u2019s revival has been outstanding, Amorim\u2019s side remain far too easy to play through even in the games they have won.<\/p>\n MORE MAN UTD COVERAGE ON F365\u2026 So if Man Utd are to truly be back under Amorim, an upgrade on Casemiro needs to be their next marquee signing, and this looks increasingly likely to be the case.<\/p>\n But this does not mean necessarily mean Baleba.<\/p>\n
