Former Manchester United striker Dwight Yorke has said that the Red Devils ‘ recent transfer policy under manager Erik ten Hag is the reason for their failure.

Yorke said: “£600m is a lot of money but we’ve seen the players coming in. I think we’re buying players to help us get to the top four. I don’t think we’re buying players to win the league. ufabet http://ufabet999.app You have to walk before you can run but Man United have gone so far that the players they’ve brought in aren’t even first-team regulars.

“It’s clear we’re not playing to win the league, that’s frustrating for me and the fans. Investing in those types of players, you’re probably going to finish fourth if you’re lucky. And the club doesn’t have the same ambition as before because I’ve never heard Man United say in the last few years that they’re aiming to win the league.”

“If you don’t send that message, then it’s clear you’re not playing to win trophies. And when the top four is the biggest target for the club, it’s surprising to me how far we’ve fallen.”

Manchester United are currently in 13th place in the league table, having collected only 7 points from 6 games, which puts Ten Hag under extreme pressure.
