Manchester United currently have the second best defense in the Premier League but because of all the injury concerns, the Red Devils must reinforce their back line.
United have three first team defenders out injured at the moment, center back Phil Jones, and two left backs in the form of Marcos Rojo and Luke Shaw (PhysioRoom).
The Old Trafford club must buy a left full back in the winter transfer window and if reports are anything to go by then Man United are closing in to sign (Express via SportBild) Wolfsburg’s $43.5m rated Swiss defender Ricardo Rodriguez.
At the moment, United’s attack is very poor and they have been getting no real support upfront from their full backs. The 23-year-old star is not only solid at the back but has been very productive in the attack as well. Last season, he scored 10 goals and provided 5 assists. This season has has scored 2 goals and provided as many assists so far (Transfermarkt).
Goes without saying, if United do lure him, he will get straight into the starting XI and play in the left full back position.
Here is how Man United will line up with Ricardo Rodriguez.

I have been a man united fan for 25 years now but what is happening to this great club is very annoying. Van Gaal seems tobe confused and lacks which direction to talk. I know he is a great manager but here, he has failed to deliver. The players are so boring, playing without a purpose. No shots on target, no goal attempts. I am tired of this nonesense. You can not treat us like this, each time we go to our home,’ground Old traffod’, we must be humiliated and disappointed. Let LVG be relieved of his duties, Wayne Rooney should first rest he is off form, why bring him always to bore us. Martial is a very good striker let him play that role not as a winger. If no action is taken to change the situation we shall go on strike soon.Thank u.
