However, the Red Devils are clearly in need of more new faces, as proven in their dismal loss on the opening day defeat.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/football\/2022\/08\/08\/frenkie-de-jong-chelsea-manchester-united-told\/\" target=\"_self\">Frenkie de Jong \u2018Tells\u2019 People He\u2019d Prefer Chelsea Move Over Manchester United<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The Red Devils offloaded six first-team players in the summer, including midfielders Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic as well as Jesse Lingard.
