Man Utd Transfers: 8 Dream Signings To Win The Fans Back

Honourable Mention

Marcos Rojo
Before the World Cup, plenty of experts would have considered that the Sporting defender could have been the chink in Argentina's armour, but the youngest player in La Albiceleste's ranks was a profound hit in Brazil. Known for being somewhat hot-headed, accumulating several bookings during the tournament and appearing to be unprofessional in his attempts to force through a move to Old Trafford, Rojo makes for an interesting prospect. At the age of 24-years-old, Rojo certainly has his best years ahead of him, as well as being comfortable both at centre-half and left-back. Going forward, the Argentine is excellent, adept at providing width and overlapping before delivering devilish crosses into the penalty area. The defensive side of his game might be slightly raw and rash, but he certainly could have a future as an interesting wing-back option should injury problems force Van Gaal's hand. Yellow cards might be a permanent fixture of Rojo's game, but Van Gaal's strong methodology and discipline might be exactly what is required to give the Argentine some additional focus. A couple of defenders are required to ensure that Man United have enough quality at the back and Rojo has an excellent World Cup under his belt, but the Sporting man may have already proven himself to be a difficult personality for the Dutchman to man-manage. Thankfully for United fans, this one is already on his way... https://twitter.com/ManUtd/statuses/501800168849948672
