Despite promising moments this season, including winning the League Cup and currently sitting third in the Premier League, United’s rollercoaster campaign has been marked by humiliating defeats against Brentford, Manchester City, and Liverpool. Thursday’s loss to Sevilla further exposed the team’s lack of depth and the need for a specialist striker and a new goalkeeper.
The future ownership of the club also hangs in the balance, with fans’ hopes for the departure of the Glazer family potentially remaining unfulfilled. The delay in the sale process could hamper United’s chances of securing transfer targets this summer, making it difficult for Ten Hag’s early impact to avoid fizzling out in the club’s decline since Alex Ferguson’s retirement in 2013.
