Robin Van Persie
The Dutchman was unhappier than most at United’s slump last term, and speculation surrounding his own future was rife. His cause wasn’t helped by an extended period on the sidelines through injury, but he looked rejuvenated at the World Cup this summer, and under Louis Van Gaal he will be expected to thrive and rediscover the form that saw him carry the side to Premier League victory in 2013. He will likely be United’s focal point in attack, where he will take advantage of the creative talents behind him.
