Manchester United must snap up these 2 Bundesliga stars in January

Manchester United fans would have been hoping for a few more wins from their side at this stage of the Premier League season.

Jose Mourinho, who took over from the sacked Louis van Gaal in the summer, has led the Red Devils to just five league victories in 12 games this season, and they are already nine points adrift of leaders Chelsea as a result.

They did start the campaign with three straight wins, but have stuttered to just two victories in eight since, with defeats against Manchester City and Chelsea throwing into doubt United’s title credentials.

United are sixth in the Premier League, five points behind fifth-place Tottenham and six behind Arsenal, and look in need of a few reinforcements to get them challenging at the top once again.
