‘Shambles’ - Gary Neville delivers brutal verdict on Manchester United’s summer transfer activity

Gary Neville has branded Manchester United’s summer transfer activity as a “shambles” and said the club still needs to strengthen in every area despite Erik ten Hag’s good work with the side so far.

The Reds dished out £225m on Tyrell Malacia, Casemiro, Antony and Lisandro Martinez with Christian Eriksen arriving on a free and Martin Dubravka on loan from Newcastle. Aside from the latter, all arrivals have played important parts in United’s season so far.

However, Neville feels that the recruits should have been brought in earlier in the window and questioned the money spent on signings in recent years. “I think [ Ten Hag ] has had a very good start in difficult circumstances. The transfer window was a shambles,” he said on the latest episode on The Overlap.
