It looks likely that Manchester United are not going to settle in the winter transfer market by just signing one top player as they desperately need more to turn the season around.
The arrival of Juan Mata is going to change the mood of everyone at United, in fact the magic has already started to flow.
Still, the English champions are lacking quality and creativity in the central midfield department this season.
Adding to that, there is more bad news with club’s senior most central midfielder Michael Carrick injured and will be out for at least six weeks.
Hence United should look to sign a quality central midfield star at all costs in this window, someone who can solve the midfield problems.
One player that can be considered as a key option is Inter Milan’s Fredy Guarin. Red Devils have been interested in the $25m midfielder for quite some time and the Colombian will be a quality addition.
According to Mirror, Man United could move for the versatile midfield star on urgent basis mainly because of Carrick’s major injury blow.
Guarin has featured in 22 games for the Nerazzuri this season and has directly contributed in no less than 14 goals from midfield (3 goals and 11 assists).
The quality is inevitable and Moyes should look to lure him as he is a realistic target and more importantly not cup tied in the Champions league.

Urgently Needed’ even The injured Carrick is no longer the ideal solution for UTD mdfld.. Often ineffective to compete with the likes of yaya toure’ paulinho’fenandhinho’ etc. Utd shld do away wt him.. GUARIN’~RAKITIC~COENTRAO~DUE FOR JAN’ YET AND EXIT NANI~KAGAWA~CHICHARITO~CLEVERLEY” THESE MEDIOCRITIES HAS NO BUSINESS WT UTD PUTING ON UTD JERSEY
Guarin may be a better signing not just because of injured Carrick. Since he can hold ball and diatribe, can push forward, assist goals and strike from long range, he may be a significant signing
Man United please sign him for us so that he can assist us in Champions league football as well. And our team will be strong and great once again we are United. Guarin,Mata,Luke Shaw,A Striker and a Winger then we are good to go.
Send cleverly away
Pls Moyes sell Nani. He just loss form and I believe he come back to form with consistent playing time.
Moyes we need Guarin + Luke shaw and krooss now. To enabe man u come top four plsssssssssssssss moyes save man u from this situation nowwwwwwww
Moyes plsssssSss sign guarin immediately before someone else dose. Thanks for mata . Wit more players coming in , ders hope for man utd..
Its obvious that Moyes has decided that the squad he inherited from the great SAF is in need of a major overhaul wif many of United’s best players now in their late 20s to mid 30s and some showing signs of decline like Ferdinand, Vidic, Fletcher, Valencia and Nani while the likes of Young, Smalling, Buttner, Cleverley, Zaha, Fellaini, Hernandez and the recently moved on Anderson and Fabio have all failed to prove to Moyes that they are up to the standard expected of Manchester United!
Add to that the fact that Evra won’t be signing a new contract and is free to leave at the end of the season with Giggs set to move into a coaching role while both Carrick and Van Persie have struggled with injury most of this season and it really is clear to see just why United haven’t been able to defend their title this season!
The signing of Mata and contract extension of Rooney is just the boost United and Moyes need to kickstart the push to finish in the Champions League places which, if achieved, especially after the 1st half of Moyes 1st season in the United hot seat will feel like a successful season and give our new manager a foundation from which to build on next season.
Moyes will still need to make at least 2 more signings in this transfer window to help him turn this season around, the obvious positions needing filled being Central Midfield and Left Back. Latest rumours suggest a bid in excess of £20m has been made for young Southampton star Luke Shaw which makes perfect sense given his age and ability but even more so to help the player settle in while Evra is still at the club and may also help get him on the plane to Brazil. However it is the Centre Midfielder that comes in during this window that will make or break United’s season as this is the key to Moyes turning things around and we’ve been linked to plenty of top players in this position too like Guarin, Cabaye, Kroos, Vidal, Pogba, Hamsik and even Khedira until he got injured. For me though the player that United should go all out for to bring in is Ilkay Gundogan, Dortmund have been without his services all season due to a troublesome back injury however he is nearing full fitness again and with him not being cup tied in the Champions League and available for around £30m he’s the ideal player to sign now and with Kagawa already here he’ll have an ex teammate to help him settle in too!
Moyes should go for guarin now
