Graeme Souness has accused Manchester United’s owners of overseeing “a decade of mismanagement”, saying Phil Jones and Juan Mata symbolize the club’s collapse.

United, once England’s biggest and best team, have suffered a terrible decline since Sir Alex Ferguson retired in 2012.

United won 13 of 20 league titles under Fergie and also won two Champions Leagues, five FA Cups and four League Cups during Scott’s extraordinary rule.

However, there has been a lot of change since Ferguson left, and United have struggled a lot in the Premier League, winning three Europa League titles and two FA Cups in the last decade.

Souness stresses United’s struggle for “a decade of bad decisions” and says the Red Devils are “a mile away” from major title contention.

Liverpool legends have criticized United’s in-and-out, saying English defender Jones and Spanish midfielder Mata’s decision to stay at the club symbolizes the club’s decline.

Manchester United handed Mata a new contract between 2019 and 2021 before being released at the end of last season, but Jones will extend the contract until 2023 and stay at Old Trafford. ..

“The problem they have is that they are very poor in many areas. It is a problem for those who make decisions in football clubs,” he said.

If you were a great player, would you go to Manchester United? That is, they made a bad football decision for only 10 years.

“It’s not just the players who bought it, it’s easy to focus, but the decision to give Phil Jones a new contract, Juan Mata a new contract, etc. could change the situation next year. I think… Year …

And tell us about the great players that surprised you by talking about the players they signed in the last 10 years. It is a mismanagement of 10 years.

“For Manchester United, it’s not about challenging the top four, it’s about challenging for the title. They’re a mile away.”

“Yes, they will be better, but anyone who makes decisions in the future must make them well. They need to improve football decisions, who to keep and who to hire. There are.

Manchester United are hoping that new manager Erik Ten Hag will improve the situation at Old Trafford.

Tenhug is confident he will have plenty of success in the Netherlands and help the Premier League club win the trophy before signing a three-year deal with United.

“I must say I have a strong belief,” he said recently. “This is a big challenge, but I have been getting the most out of my team wherever I go.

“This is the most difficult project. I’m aware of it, but I’m here, so I’m sure I can do it.”

“The first objective is to win every game. It must be our focus for Manchester United.

“Good. So I know it’s not an easy task, but there is joy and energy in working together with those around me. It should be a platform for success. No.”
