Whoever he does get in January or the summer will likely end up replacing most of the backline players he's used so far, I can't only really see Shaw and Rojo getting much in the way of first team games in to next season. Jones and Smalling (if they stay) will likely be used as back-up and for cup games, Rafael might get a look in now and then, McNair and Blackett need more experience.
Once he's then bought a decent midfielder or two the engine will be firing properly. In the relative short space of time he had before the season he could only look at who was available and would fit. Possibly January but certainly in the summer the team will be complete.

Benatia was clearly available as demonstrated by the fact he moved clubs over the summer, perhaps if utd had a manager that wasn't distracted by the world cup there would've been more time to address these glaring deficiencies
