#3 - Pepe:
Pepe has been one of the essential elements at Real Madrid since joining the club from FC Porto, back in 2007. The Portuguese international has almost won all there is in European football, including the Spanish league, the Champions League and the Eurocup with Portugal.
An experienced figure of his stature would have added a winning mentality to Manchester United's locker room. While it is true that Victor Lindelöf is one for the future, the former Benfica-man is still 23 years old and is in his adaptation phase after making the big jump from the Liga Sagres to the Premier League.
Pepe would have helped the Swedish man settle, without stalling his development. He is used to performing in big games and would have been important in the later stages of the Champions League.
In a long season with several competitions, United fans would certainly much rather have Pepe to rely on, than Chris Smalling and Phil Jones. It's not like the Red Devils have ever been short of money, but the fact that the Portuguese defender was available on a free, is certainly a strong reason why he should have been signed before Besiktas eventually signed him.
