In Gary Neville's traffic-light system ranking Manchester United's major transfers since 2013, Daley Blind was in the red.
Blind, a £13.8million signing from Ajax in 2014, enjoyed a decent first season, switching from defensive midfield to left-back, where he was integral to that sprightly spring of six successive league wins under Louis van Gaal.
In the second season, he moved inside to centre-back after Sergio Ramos led United down the garden path and United had the joint-best defensive record in the Premier League, letting in a measly 35 goals in 38 games, and won the FA Cup.
