Leicester City visited Old Trafford yesterday and needed three points to win the Premier League title. However, the Foxes could only earn a point against the Red Devils and Tottenham are still alive in the title race for the time being.
Manchester United need to reinforce big time in the summer transfer window if they are to challenge the best of teams next season and have any chance of winning the league title.
The Red Devils lack a quality defensive midfielder in their squad and if reports (Daily Star) are anything to go by then United are ready to sign Leicester’s quality French international Kante.
Legendary United manager Alex Ferguson claimed:
“Kante is by far the best player in the Premier League season.”
At the moment, Michael Carrick is past his best whereas summer signing Morgan Schneiderlin has failed to live up to the expectations in the defensive midfield role since leaving Southampton.
Kante has been the midfield general for Leicester this season and without him Ranieri’s men would not have been able to mount any title challenge.
As per the provided Star link, the 25-year-old star is rated around $44 million. He has featured in 35 league games for the Foxes this season, scored a goal and provided 4 assists as well.
In your opinion, should United splash the cash and sign Kante?

Not so much about kante being the best in the league,.. its about not giving enough chances to schneiderlin in the deep lying midfielder’s role.. if not for lvg persistent trust in carrick, i think United would hv been much higher than current position.. other lvg unusual selection decision follies,
Fact 1.. varela- 1 mistake in europa qf v liverpool… gone
Fact 2… schneiderlin herrera combo.. has more points than carrick some-other-guy combo
Fact 3.. fosu mensah 1 mistake in fa cup semis.. subbed…gone
Fact 4… rojo horrendous defending at set piece seen multiple times.. least v spurs and lei.. still plays..
Fact 5… andreas parreira, brazil u20 captain.. played and scored in world cup u20 finals.. treated lower than lingard..
Fact 6… rooney.. worthless.. enough said
Fact 7… its ok to stick with fellaini.. but should be playing him up front as a no.10..
Fact 8… baffling substitutions during matches… what the heck is he thinking!!!
who else doesn’t know kante and the roles he plays utd needs such defensive midfielder
Totally agree with u there.. but if for utd its definitely not carrick.. dont get me wrong.. kante has performed brilliantly all season.. he has an able and consistent deputy in drinkwater.. and much help with the aggressive pressing from his forward men be it vardy, okazaki, ulloa..practically much of the whole same team… that helps greatly when u hv the consistency..
What i hv highlighted were some of the facts.. there r many more that i am sure all of us fans are aware of..
Herrera and morgan are indeed young energy full players who should be in starting 11. Rooney and Carrick are no more what they but can be used occasionally from bench. Rojo has serious problem with set piece but with Argentinia he plays well in same position, LVG is confusing him. Fellaini is strong and slow and makes no good use of his height. Anthony Martial is feeling too big too soon. he glues on ball so long and feels only he should score thereby keeping skillful Rashford dormant in perfect waiting for ball to score while Martial keeps blasting keeper with air ball instead of low and corner shot. Lingard is almost weightless and times waste ball instead of avoiding bodied defenders. he failed chip the over the rushing Leicester keeper but waited to be brushed aside and spoiled chance. In summary, the bench-coach is responsible because he does not read game and make timely decision. LVG has caused us a lot of embarrassment and must go before this prestigious MUFC is relegated.

Man utd should play their youngsters cause they got quality…we need attacking minded counter attack tactical is very important as well defence
Azrin you are spot on am totally in agreement
With you the problem is lvg erratic behaviour
He’s definitely old school. We need someone
I think a 21st century style ( pep, mourinho,klopp
Simeone, pochettino etc)
