Manchester United fans identify two players to solve creativity problem

Manchester United fans have identified James Maddison and Jadon Sancho as the two players who would solve the club's creativity problems.

After a blistering start to the season against Chelsea, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's men are winless in two games, after drawing against Wolves and losing against Crystal Palace.

The result against the Eagles means the Reds have won only one of their previous nine matches, scoring just eight goals while conceding 16 at the other end.

Solskjaer has opted to deploy Anthony Martial as the central forward following the departure of Romelu Lukaku, with Marcus Rashford and Daniel James on the flanks, with Jesse Lingard in behind.

However, United's forward line is yet to click and fans have identified two players who they think would take the team to the next level; Leicester's James Maddison and Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho.

Maddison enjoyed a dream debut season in the Premier League for the Foxes last year while Sancho has emerged as one of England's brightest talents thanks to his exploits in the Bundesliga.

United fans took to social media to plead with the club to make a move for their services.
