Paul Merson rates Manchester United s summer transfer window so far

In his column for , former Arsenal and Aston Villa forward Paul Merson evaluated Manchester United's summer transfer window. Scrutinising the Red Devils' activity in the market, Merson wrote: "Manchester United are in disarray and they need to sort this out. At the moment, it's a bit like a circus there. Erik ten Hag has come in, but they haven't got a centre-forward. They would've gone for Darwin Nunez if they knew Cristiano Ronaldo was going to leave." Merson added: "Manchester United have known that they've failed to qualify for the Champions League for a long time now. They don't have a striker, and Marcus Rashford isn't a natural goalscorer. They haven't completed Frenkie de Jong's signing from Barcelona. At the moment, they are looking at just another season. I thought they'd have a shot at the top four... I just don't see that anymore. They've lost Cavani, Lingard, Matic and Pogba, and they've got bundles of work to do." Paul Merson predicts the result of Newcastle vs Chelsea and other EPL GW 16 fixtures!
