Ryan Giggs has urged Ed Woodward to give Manchester United boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer another six signings to bring back the glory days at Old Trafford.
The Red Devils spent almost £150million on new players over the summer but, after ten games of the 2019-20 campaign, the club are just seventh in the Premier League.
Woodward sanctioned expensive moves for Harry Maguire, Aaron Wan-Bissaka and Daniel James but Giggs says another ‘five or six’ players are needed at the Theatre of Dreams.
‘We need to bring quality in,’ Red Devils legend Giggs told the United Stand. ‘Ole has brought three in who are all doing well.
‘His dealings have been very good so far. Give him the money other managers have had to get Manchester United players.
‘Get another five or six players like that in, we will see a real difference. They are missing that creative player.
‘It is no coincidence, the best performances have been against good teams. The lesser teams are always harder to break down.
‘We are probably just a bit shy of them creative players and I think Ole recognises that.’
Giggs has also leapt to the defence of Solskjaer despite Manchester United’s poor start to the season.
The Wales boss added: ‘It has been a difficult start. As far as Ole is concerned, I know him well, as a player and person.
‘He is going to need time. Since the manager left, different philosophies and types of players and Ole is trying to turn that around.
‘He is looking at the future and trying to win games at the same time. It is difficult.
‘When you are in a league with Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola fantastic, established coaches. I don’t care who came in, it was never going to be easy.’
