Think that's never been an argument, well, not for non-United supporters anyway. Clear as day the team simply isn't good enough which is a scary thing for a United supporter when you consider how much they've spent.maybe a lot of these United players just aren't as good as their billing... this is Rangnick's 4th game in charge and for 3.5 games it is hard to discern any noticeable change from when Ole was in charge... at some point you have to look at the players as the common denominator in years of United's poor displays
Ralph needs some time to implement his strategy and style so it's not fair he's judged too much I guess? 3 games in is it? Two wins out of 3 and only 1 goal against?
The reality is tho that they need so many new signings it's scary.
Goal keeper. Get your views on De Gea and you're right about his distribution but this is one area I think they're ok in.
Outside backs. Wan Bissaka and Shaw? Vanished. Are they injured? Weren't good enough imo tho I think Shaw was actually pretty good lack year. Two new backs just look lost and devoid of defensive understanding. Need one if not two outside backs.
Centre backs. It was said Varane would be the saviour back there. Terrible yesterday but he is a decent player so I'm sure he'll improve. Maquire. Putting price tag to the side, an absolute embarrassment of a CB. Shocking. And he's the captain. Two back up CBs are extremely hot and cold. Need another two CBs
Midfield. Has been clear as day for some time this was the area most lacking and still is. McFred. Shocking. Bruno. As far from the 'superstar' status some like to label him as possible. He's actually a decent player but more of a bench option imo. Pogba. Shown nothing. They need two if not three midfielders.
Attack. Ronaldo has been what most knew he'd be. Goal scorer but bad for the team. His display last night was ordinary. Greenwood. Tones of talent but been ordinary this year. Rashford. Plenty of promise but just not good enough. Cavani. Top player but leaving this summer. Sancho. No idea what's happened to him. Nees another two attackers.
The reality is that United need to bring in at least 6 players, top players, to be back at that top level. Plus find a top manager.
Have said this for some time so am not trolling or whatever. Just don't know how United go forward with this squad?
