Manchester United's penalty shootout FA Cup semi-final win over Coventry City brought more questions than answers - both in terms of Erik ten Hag and his players.  This has been a season riddled by mistakes on and off the pitch for United and with Sir Jim Ratcliffe and his Ineos team now assuming control of football operations, a summer shake-up feels inevitable.  United are looking to raise £100million through player sales and for some shown the door that will mean accepting a sizeable loss on their initial transfer outlay. Mail Sport runs through Manchester United's squad to work out who stays and who goes.

Sir Jim Ratcliffe has confirmed that he and his Ineos staff will not turn Manchester United backwards by investing money on football's top stars. Ratcliffe's £1.3 billion minority takeover of the club has seen him, as well as Sir Dave Brailsford, take over football operations at Old Trafford and recruitment is a subject that the club is keen to address.

With the club's financial constraints easing and a number of player signings planned, Sir Jim Ratcliffe is likely to rule out a significant transfer investment at Manchester United this summer. Since completing his £1.2 billion investment in a chat with Mail Sport yesterday, the INEOS owner outlined improving recruiting as his top priority, and Old Trafford's summer is anticipated, with United no longer in danger of breaching the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability Rules [PSR]. United were unable to sign any new players during the January transfer window due to PSR limitations, but the club will have more room for manoeuvre as the accounting period resumes on July 1.

After Manchester United had to offload 13 players in January without being able to make any new signings, Erik ten Hag has bemoaned FFP policies. The United boss decided to reduce his team, offloading mainly fringe players. Despite spending over £410 million since taking over, Ten Hage in Rasmus Hojlund has only one recognized fit striker, as FFP restrictions prevented him from obtaining a new one last month. United's Jadon Sancho, Alvaro Fernandez, Facundo Pellistri, Joe Hugill, Maxi Oyedele, Rhys Bennett, Dan Gore, Radek Vitek, Isak Hansen-Aaroen, and Sonny Aljofree have all passed away in January, whether on loan or permanently.

SIMON JONES: Jurgen Klopp's pending departure, as well as sports director Jorg Schmadtke, has sparked a never ending discussion about how Liverpool will recover. One of the most common comments around Anfield is that it would be a good idea to tempt the club's former sports director Michael Edwards back to a new role. Edwards left Liverpool just over a year ago and was regarded as the brains behind Liverpool's impressive recruiting process. He's since founded Ludonautics, alongside Liverpool's former director of research Ian Graham, who is now working with a Premier League club and forming a Bolton Wanderers partnership last week.

www.dailymail.co.uk, January 23, 2024
Manchester United's Al-Nassr is gearing up for a daring bid for Casemiro and Aaron Wan-Bissaka as Manchester United prepares to offload some of their top-earning employees. Last month, Mail Sport announced that United's football director John Murtough went to Riyadh to look at potential contracts for a number of players who are not available for transfer. Casemiro is the top earner on £375,000-a-week, but the Brazilian has 32 years to play next month and hasn't played since November due to a hamstring injury. United is open to selling him this summer if they can recover a part of the £70 million fee paid to Real Madrid last year.

SIMON JONES: Facundo Pellistri's transfer to Granada has stalled as the Old Trafford club continues to persuade Omari Forson to remain. Uruguayan Pellistri was eager to move to La Liga, but Granada was only able to make a small contribution to his pay. Talks are ongoing and other clubs are keen, but United's other concern is that talented 19-year-old Omari Forson will continue to commit to a new one, and Erik ten Hag wants to make sure there is ample insurance in case Pellistri leaves.

Manchester United's all-action victory over Aston Villa shows that they can summon goals when they need to... Sir Jim Ratcliffe is hoping this is a sign of things to come after a bleak spell at Old Trafford

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 26, 2023
Sir Jim Ratcliffe: Manchester United have been built on nights like this one, and Sir Jim Ratcliffe is aware of it. United are down and almost out on nights when they are not. They'll be crowned on nights when they come out off the canvas, with the crowd's roar and scream, and sweep sweep to victory in games packed with goals and late drama. Ratcliffe has seen the great squads and the great players in their pomp here as a boyhood fan.

Erik ten Hag made Antony the second-most expensive player in Man United's history, but the £82 million winger has one assist and no goals in his last 26 games... so why does the Dutchman continue to believe his former Ajax pupil?

www.dailymail.co.uk, December 13, 2023
Erik ten Hag's decision to recall Antony with Facundo Pellistri against Bayern Munich on Tuesday night was something symbolic. With Manchester United's disqualification in the second half of the Champions League, the Dutchman felt a squad player with 323 minutes of football under his belt this season would be more effective than his record signing. The only surprising part of the substitution was that it took ten Hag 75 minutes to get there.

CHRIS WHEELER: Gory, gory Man United... This was a like a scene from a HORROR film (but not one that was particularly good one). You cannot concede 14 goals in four games and expect to progress in the Champions League

CHRIS WHEELER: Lightning flashed overhead and the letters on the banner among the Galatasaray ultras - are there any other kind? Were strewn with blood. It's back, and your nightmare is back. It seemed that it was like a scene from a horror film. Mind you, this isn't a good one, but it's still a horror film. It seemed that Manchester United's nightmare had returned to Manchester United as the worst of the rain had begun to fall and the lightning had stopped flashing.

Hannibal Mejbri, a No.10 and Bruno Fernandes pushed out to right wing, has earned Man United's fortune, but the midfield tinkerman must find a formula that will keep Man United on the road to glory

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 17, 2023
Erik ten Hag is no doubt mulling his midfield over as his players jet around the world during the international break. Rasmus Hojlund has demonstrated leadership, and a majority of the problems defensively have revolved around a crippling injury list, which the manager hopes has alleviated a little when Manchester United returns to action next weekend. However, it is in midfield that the true headscratcher resides. Casemiro is a forensic scientist. Mount Mason. Bruno Fernandes. Sofyan Amrabat, a Turkish scholar, has been killed in a car crash. Scott McTominay. Christian Eriksen was born in Helsinki, Sweden. Facundo Pellistri. Alejandro Garnacho. Marcus Rashford was born in the United Kingdom. Kobbie Mainoo is the author of the Kobbie Mainoo. Ten Hag has hardly any options to choose from.

CHRIS WHEELER AT OLD TRAFFORD: After a rough start to the season, with no one seems to have gone wrong for Manchester United and Erik ten Hag, there was finally a night when they could do no wrong. Sofyan Amrabat's debut, a triumphant comeback by Mason Mount, Alejandro Garneto's first goals of the season, and youthful Facundo Pellistri and Hannibal Mejbri's first performance of the season were impressive. After winning their second match in the space of four days, Ten Hag wore the appearance of a man who has weathered the worst of the early-season storm.
