Sir Jim Ratcliffe, co-owner of Manchester United, has publicly criticized several players, including Casemiro, Antony, Jadon Sancho, Rasmus Hjlund, and Andre Onana, suggesting they are underperforming and overpaid. He admits that not sacking coach Erik ten Hag last summer was a mistake and acknowledges the current poor league standing. He stresses that the club's struggles stem from inherited issues and emphasizes the need for time to rectify the squad's composition and move past previous management's decisions.
Some are not good enough and some probably are overpaid, but for us to mould the squad that we are fully responsible for, and accountable for, will take time.
These are all things from the past, whether we like it or not, we've inherited those things and have to sort that out.
If you look at the players we are buying this summer, that we didn't buy, we're buying Antony, we're buying Casemiro, we're buying Onana, we're buying Hjlund, we're buying Sancho.
It takes time for us to move away from the past into a new place in the future.
