In their last 4 matches, Manutd have not troubled their opposition keeper more than two times per match. Their attacking is terrible.

Yep. They're terrible, and as expected, buying Di Maria, no matter how good he is, won't fix their problems.

Some players are born to never be captains, Rooney is one of them. There are no leaders in that United team..

Yeah saf was the leader but he was everything.

This is why I never want Chelsea to do the same thing.

No matter how good Mourinho is, he must never control every aspect of the team like saf did and currently Wenger is doing.

Everything depends on them so when they leave there's no real structure left in place to take over.

Chelsea was loathed for how it ran things, but after all is said and done Chelsea is now running in a way that makes sense in this modern world.

Modern world is key, because you have to evolve.

What was the state of fútbol 20 years ago it's not the same today.

They may need to buy centerbacks and park the bus because they aren't scoring any goals with their attack

Always thought they needed a world-class CB who can distribute the ball and a true CM/DM more than they needed Di Maria. He obviously strengthened them and he can play in midfield, but their squad is very unbalanced right now. They have too many attacking players that don't work well together(RVP, Rooney, Mata) and there's no "glue" between defence, midfield and attack.

At this point in time if you go through redcafe, you'll notice ManU fans still believe United will come back to the top. I wonder how long will it be until they finally accept their domination era is over and start settling for top 4 every year like Liverpool and Arsenal.

There is no way United will come back to the top anytime soon. Not this season, not the next. They have spent close to 150m this summer (not to mention last season) and over 50% of their team still needs reshaping. Not only have they spent, but they have spent incompetently (e.g. Fellaini, Mata, Herrera).

They would need to spend another 150m EFFICIENTLY to be able to even compete with Chelsea or City for the title. And that will not happen because it won't be long before 2 or 3 consecutive seasons of Champions League deprivation start taking their toll on both the club's finances and its ability to attract stars.

They already find themselves in a position where they must overpay ridiculously in order to get business done in the transfer market. This will only get worse and worse until the Glazers (who never liked the idea of investing in the club) will eventually pull out of this spending spree, which will be met with pressure and anger from the fans.

Maybe I'm over thinking here but I firmly believe Manchester United is done as a serious title contender in England for the next decade.
