Hands on hearts. How many of our players are truly good enough to form an 11 capable of firstly winning the Premier League, and secondly the Champions League? Because this is the criteria our players should ultimately be measured against.
De Gea
Bailly
Matic
Pogba
In my opinion these are the only players that we have currently that are of the required standard to play in an 11 that could win top honours.
We have the likes of Valencia, Herrera, Jones that can do a job but when measured against the best they aren't good enough. The only young hopefuls that we have are Rashford and Martial, but both of them aren't good enough currently and still have a hell of a long way to go.
In terms of winning the league, you can get by with a few players that can "do a job", but the bar has been significantly raised in Europe and we may be witnessing City also raising that bar in the league.
Basically, it doesn't look good for us right now in terms of getting back to where we want to be, which is challenging seriously on all fronts.
I'm interested to hear who everyone else genuinely believes is good enough to play every week in an 11 that could win the CL and/or PL.
