Scholes suggests Man Utd should replace senior star while highlighting areas of transfer needs

Manchester United need more creativity in midfield, says Paul Scholes, while the Red Devils have also been urged to consider finding an upgrade to Victor Lindelof when the transfer window re-opens.

A record-breaking £80 million ($98m) was invested in Harry Maguire over the summer, with the England international now the most expensive defender on the planet.

He is considered to be a useful addition for the present and future at Old Trafford, but further reinforcements will be required in order to get United back to where they believe they belong.
