Man Utd Transfers: 5 Players Moyes Should Sign Instead Of Cristiano Ronaldo

2. Asmir Begovic - Stoke City

Okay, this one seems a bit out of the question seeing as United€™s current number one, David De Gea has just come off the back of an excellent season personally, culminating in him being voted into the Premier League team of the year. However, many critics and United fans alike are still not convinced by the pencil thin Spaniard. Sure, he has the potential to be a top keeper in years to come but question marks remain about his ability when it comes to the physical side of the English Premier League. That coupled with continued rumours of a return to Spain with either Real Madrid or Barcelona; also add another element to the story. The current number one at Barca, Victor Valdes has spoken of his desire for a new challenge, if that were to happen this summer who is to say that De Gea could say no to joining the Spanish champions and returning to home soil. Highly rated Bosnian Asmir Begovic, is a top class goalkeeper who has completed his apprenticeship, so to speak in the Premier League. His muscular 6ft 5in frame mean he is physically well able for the rough stuff in the Premier League. United were heavily linked with a bold move for the Stoke City number one in the winter transfer window, the Potteries acquisition of up and coming English €˜keeper Jack Butland added fuel to the rumours that Begovic could be up for grabs this summer.
