And you know what? They're probably right! Ron Vlaar could certainly help a struggling, mid-table Manchester United side. But so could plenty of other players. Let's investigate, shall we?

Players who could help Manchester United

  • Ron Vlaar

  • James Rodríguez
  • David Luiz
  • Branislav Ivanovic
  • Ryan Bertrand
  • Gareth Bale
  • Lionel Messi
  • Mario Götze
  • Diego Costa
  • Neymar
  • Mesut Özil
  • Angel Di María
  • Sergio Agüero
  • Arjen Robben

Now, for the sake of completeness, let's look at another list:

  • Gareth Bale

  • Mario Götze
  • Diego Costa

But that doesn't really tell the whole story. One final list to show the progress they're making:
