How do United fix the attacking issue?

Getting actual quality attackers is a good start to fixing attacking issues. Getting better progressors behind those attackers is another good idea.

We have one midfielder that passes the ball forward effectively, but he’s also our most creative player. We have one attacker that creates a good amount of chances through his dribbling and passing in an efficient manner. And that’s out of… what 10 players or so? For 2/3’s of the pitch?

You could play this group in a number of different formations and it wouldn’t change those facts.
 
Sign a striker, sign a 10, play Amad at 10 and sign a RWB in the mold of Frimpong

Play Bruno CM
