Manchester United will most likely fail to lift the English Premier League trophy this season according to club legend Paul Scholes. Scholes, who himself won 11 Premier League titles with the club, also said that Man United just doesn’t have the quality to challenge other top clubs like Manchester City or Liverpool.
“When you look at Manchester City, possibly Liverpool, I don’t think they [United] have the quality of those two teams at the minute,” – Scholes told the Daily Mirror. “Liverpool have made some really good signings. United finished above them last season. I just don’t see United getting closer to City. City are a really good side, great manager, some great players, a way of playing that they all know about and Manchester United seem to be not too sure what’s going on.“
“So I hope I’m wrong, but I don’t see them challenging for the league this year.” – he added.
Manchester United finished second in the Premier League last season but never came close to challenging Man City for the title, who had 19 points more. This season, United supposed to make another step into reclaiming its past glory, but the team has done very little in reinforcing their squad.
