Centre-Back: Mehdi Benatia (AS Roma)
Given that Jonny Evans started less than half of Man United’s Premier League fixtures last term and neither Phil Jones of Chris Smalling impressed in a central defensive role, there is perhaps a real need to invest heavily in TWO central defenders and French born Moroccan international Benatia is certainly a player in form. The experienced no-nonsense performer had a wonderful debut campaign at the Stadio Olimpico last term.
