With just two-and-a-half days between now and transfer deadline day, the pressure is on Manchester United manager David Moyes to make a notable signing this summer. So far, the Scotsman's only capture has been Guillermo Varela, the 20-year-old Uruguayan fullback signed from Atletico Penarol. That's not exactly a signing that gets the pulses racing. Meanwhile, usual suspects Manchester City and Chelsea have been their normal, profligate selves, spending £153 million between them on new recruits such as Stevan Jovetic, Fernandinho and Alvaro Negredo and Marko van Ginkel, Andre Schurrle and Willian, respectively. Even Tottenham Hotspur have enjoyed a fruitful summer of activity, taking their expenditure close to the £100 million mark and breaking their club-transfer record three times on Paulinho, Roberto Soldado and Erik Lamela.

He has this weekend to complete any deals should he feel the need to build on the foundations laid by the retired Sir Alex Ferguson, and here, we list 5 dream deadline day signings he should make.
