He is not the answer to our problem,I don’t know why Man united are always good at buying fake things from the Market,this particular player will take us to relegation zone”, Paul scholes disagrees with Manchester United over new £38,500,000 signing
Paul Scholes has expressed his disapproval of Manchester United’s latest signing, Matthijs de Ligt, calling him “not the answer” to the team’s problems and fearing he could lead them to the relegation zone. However, Micah Richards disagrees, believing De Ligt can transform United’s team and aid in implementing Erik ten Hag’s style of play.
Richards argues that De Ligt’s pace and ability will improve United’s defense, which has often been criticized for being too slow. He also highlights the positives from United’s recent performance in the Community Shield, including the impact of players like Amad Diallo, Alejandro Garnacho, and Bruno Fernandes.
Despite concerns from Scholes and Rio Ferdinand, Richards thinks De Ligt’s reunion with Ten Hag could revive his form, which has struggled since leaving Ajax in 2019. With De Ligt and Noussair Mazraoui joining the team, Richards sees promise in United’s upcoming season.
The debate surrounding De Ligt’s signing highlights the differing opinions on United’s transfer strategy and their ability to address their defensive woes. While some legends like Scholes and Ferdinand are skeptical, others like Richards believe De Ligt can make a positive impact and help United improve their performance.
