This summer is becoming a mirror of the 2019 close-season for Manchester United: reeling from dropping to sixth, Europa League football on the calendar, their stock in the transfer market is low and a recently-appointed manager is presiding over another reset. Or rebuild, recalibration, retool, whatever you want to call it.
It extends to the goalkeeping situation. Three years ago, United loaned Dean Henderson to a newly-promoted Premier League club, delaying the decision on when he could replace David de Gea.
Alas, United had a manager who was clinically indecisive. A heavily pregnant woman and a contagious disease made the decisions for Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and he still conducted his exit interview with the same unsustainable dynamic between De Gea and Henderson unresolved.
