With the summer transfer window now closed for Premier League clubs, how did Manchester United come out of it? Apparently, pretty good. They added some players who can contribute as the season rolls along.

In looking back at their additions, Carl Anka of The Athletic broke things down for Man Utd fans.

"Matheus Cunha was United’s first signing of the summer window, with the club activating his £62.5m release clause from Wolves in early June," Anka wrote. "Bryan Mbeumo followed in July, joining for an initial fee of £65m from Brentford.

"Slovenia centre-forward Benjamin Sesko completes the new look United front trio as a £66.4m arrival from RB Leipzig," Anka wrote. "Senne Lammens was the final incoming of the window. The 23-year-old Belgian goalkeeper was a deadline-day signing, the club paying an initial fee of £18.2m to acquire him from Royal Antwerp."

These are players that the club hopes will make immediate impacts. Man Utd will need all of them to step and help in Premier League action right now. But Man Utd fans also know that other clubs made key additions, too. 

In order to keep up with other clubs, Man Utd must have these players deliver when it matters most. Adding Lammens gives the club a solid player in goal. That's going to be something fans will watch because a good goalkeeper can reap benefits on a match-by-match basis.

So, how did Anka grade Man Utd's transfer window efforts? He gave them a B.

"United have a habit of being 'three good signings away from being three good signings away,'" Anka wrote. "The club have made aggressive moves to bolster the attack, and they were proactive in selling the majority of their unwanted fringe players. However, they still finish the window with at least one glaring weakness (central midfield), which will put a ceiling on their success this season."

Midfield work must get better for Man Utd. They have to use the players that they have in that role. Keeping other clubs on their feet at all times will be important. But Man Utd took steps to get better now, hopefully leading the club to a Premier League championship.
