Gary Neville's Man Utd transfer rant in 2014 proves little has changed in last eight years

Manchester United's slow start to the season has prompted calls for more spending, but the club have tried and failed to solve their problems with investment in the past.

Pundit Steve Nicol has suggested only new players, rather than any changes in the dugout, can help a side which has brought in Erik ten Hag ahead of the 2022-23 season. While there have been additions in the form of Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen and Lisandro Martinez, others have argued United are still no closer to pushing for a top four finish.

This is nothing new, though, and comments from former captain Gary Neville have resurfaced to illuminate the issue. Neville was quizzed on his old club back in 2014, just a year after they began the post-Alex Ferguson era, and it appears little has changed since.
