Former England international Gary Neville is not surprised by the poor results of his former club Manchester United in their 2023 transfer window.
After five days of the Premier League, Manchester United (2 wins, 3 losses) is positioned in the soft underbelly of the ranking, in 13th place. An alarming performance record for a member of the Big Four. No surprise for the club’s former glory, Gary Neville, who judges the summer transfer window Red Devils insufficient to compete with the other top names in the English championship, notably Manchester City and Arsenal.
“Manchester United signed a lot of players at the start of the transfer window, and that was a good thing. But I was afraid that the players recruited would not improve the team compared to last seasondeclared the consultant of Sky Sports. I never thought for a second that they would challenge Manchester City and Arsenal with these signings. And we can see that they are not very good at the moment. »
This summer, the Old Trafford residents completed the arrivals of Altay Bayindir, Sergio Reguilón, Sofyan Amrabat, Rasmus Højlund, André Onana, Jonny Evan and Mason Mount. However, the Mancunian club remains on two consecutive defeats against Arsenal (3-1) and Brighton (1-3). This before the trip of Erik Ten Hag’s men to the Allianz Arena this Wednesday, as part of the first day of the group stage of the Champions League against Bayern Munich.
