‘Man Utd players getting worse; only three good enough’ - Owen slams Red Devils

Man utd news update live:
The former Red Devils striker is concerned by the ongoing regression under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with an underperforming squad “devaluing” quickly

Michael Owen claims Manchester United’s supposed stars are “getting worse”, with a squad that has seen considerable investment “devaluing” with each passing performance to leave only three players that should have a long-term future at the club.



The former Red Devils striker told Premier League Productions: “They haven’t got the players, they’re simply not good [enough].

“That first XI, I’d say there’s three players, maybe four, that should be Manchester United players for the future.

“If you’re looking to build that club back to where it was, then there’s probably three or four in that first team.



“Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in his interview afterwards, I was almost slipping down my chair, it was almost like he doesn’t know what’s going wrong, let’s say.

“We can all speculate as to what’s going wrong. He can look over his shoulder and think ‘down the road you’ve got Jurgen Klopp, you’ve got [Pep] Guardiola - these are managers that are actually improving their players, they’re getting the best out of their squad’.



“I’m looking at that [United] squad and, if anything, the players are getting worse.

“They’re devaluing, as a squad they’re getting worse. Where is it all going to end?”
