New Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag ignored the transfer advice of Gary Neville and Ralf Rangnick during his first summer at the club.
The Dutchman kicked off the new era with the signings of Tyrell Malacia, Christian Eriksen, Lisandro Martinez, Casemiro, Antony and Martin Dubravka, while also managing to cut some of the deadwood from his inherited squad. Ahead of the summer rebuild, it was the outgoings which concerned United legend Gary Neville.
The former right-back called for Ten Hag to be "really brutal" and undertake a "massive change" of his playing squad. "If Erik ten Hag is going to be really brutal like Jurgen Klopp was when he first went into Liverpool and got rid of Christian Benteke or when Joe Hart was let go by Pep Guardiola, he’s going to be letting a lot of this lot go," Neville told Sky Sports in April.
