Former Arsenal midfielder Paul Merson has said Manchester United are not good enough to finish in the top four of the Premier League this season. And are far from being champions.
The Red Devils faced heavy disappointment last season when they finished as far as sixth in the table. Not even playing in the Champions League. Which Emerson sees this season as another. The year the team will not be in the top four. And it’s still a million miles away from being a champion.
“Manchester United is in chaos and they will have to deal with it.” Merson told Sportskida. “At the moment it’s like a circus there, Erik ten Hag comes in but they haven’t got a striker yet UFABET.
“They’ll be fully focused on Darwin Nunez if they know Cristiano Ronaldo will leave, Manchester United know they don’t have the potential to play in the Champions League. the league for a long time now.”
“They don’t have a central striker where Marcus Rashford is not a natural finisher. They have yet to reach an agreement to bring Frenkie de Jong from Barcelona, United to Thailand and Australia. And they have to fix that before the tour starts.”
“I thought they would finish in the top four but I don’t look at it that way anymore, they lost Edinson Cavani, Jesse Lingard, Nemanja Matic, Paul Pog. Ba they have a lot of work to do, Manchester United are a million miles away to win the Premier League. They won’t win the league even if Ronaldo stays, if he stays next year he’s moving anyway.”
“Where is the plan? Keep using the same players and you will get the same results. I don’t see them in the top four.”
