Manchester United can get all the whole players they want during the transfer window but that won't solve the problem, we can say that Manchester United has been amongst the most active team in Europe during the transfer window, making top signing on different positions but as the season has commenced we haven't seen that pay off.
The issue for Manchester United is the mentality not the money they have to spend. I must say that Ten Hag isn't the man Manchester United needs. The team goes into every season knowing they won't win the league, UCL and at their best they can only hope for the FA Cup. This isn't the mentality that kept Manchester United on top during sir Alex Ferguson era.
When Ten Hag first stepped into the club, the players as well as the fans had high hopes, and honestly he was doing a great job, earning Manchester United awesome victories with his strategic signings and approaches, the problem I believe began from when Ten Hag started letting go off a few players that has contributed and we’re still actively contributing to the club for some reason I don’t know. Yeah he made some more pretty good signings but it’s quite unfortunate that the squad he built isn’t giving him the result he expected, I don’t know if I’ll say the teams aren’t compatible with each other or with the coach. It’s a pretty hard nut to crack.
I totally agree with you analysis, I remember at the initial stage when Ten hag started having issues with the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, which even lead yo his exit. From the reality of things I think Ten hag has issues in managing players with high profile, today Jordan Sancho is doing well with Chelsea, Ronaldo is still banging goals in Saudi, this where players Manchester united once had in their squared. I feel Ole was a better coach to Ten hag, I haven't really seen much magically formations that are well sustaining with him so far he has been managing this team, rather Manchester United is drifting towards in mediocre club day by day.
