Gary Neville has accused former Old Trafford manager Erik ten Hag of making ‘two of the worst signings in Manchester United’s history’.

United are in talks with Sporting Lisbon manager Ruben Amorim after they finally sacked Ten Hag earlier in the week.

The Manchester United board showed admirable but perhaps misguided patience in Ten Hag despite the team slumping to their lowest-ever Premier League finish last season.

Ten Hag was even handed a contract extension after the surprising FA Cup final win over Manchester City but was dismissed less than four months later with United 14th in the Premier League and 21st out of 36 teams in the Europa League.
Despite Manchester United’s largely poor form under Ten Hag, Neville believes he will at least partly be remembered for lifting two trophies and giving the fans a ‘special’ win over Man City at Wembley.

But Neville also says Ten Hag will be remembered for ‘overseeing two of the worst transfers Manchester United have ever made’ in Antony and Casemiro.

United spent more than £80m to sign Antony from Ajax in the summer of 2022 but the Brazilian, yet to start a Premier League game this season, now finds himself on the periphery at Old Trafford.
