Having seen the common answer for most improved MU player, I think it's best I do a Mourinho and not speak. If I speak I am in big trouble.

Dalot has been the worst player at the club by an absolute mile.
He started a grand total of 1 Premier League game. 7 starts in all competitions. He was, for all intents and purposes, a non-entity this season.

Genuinely surprised not to see Arrizabalaga's name pop up that much.

I reckon it's because you lot can't spell it. :p
"Pereira" presents a significant challenge for a lot of Caftards, so...

JUST THE LIST

Man United players only:

Best signing Bruno
Worst signing James

Best player Bruno
Worst player Pereira

Most improved player Martial
Most disimproved player Lingard

Non Man United players (Premier League only):

Best signing Ings
Worst signing Joelinton

Best player KDB
Worst player

Most improved player Ings
Most disimproved player Ozil




Man United players only:

Best signing: Bruno
Worst signing: James (Mostly by default)

Best player: Bruno
Worst player: If were using 10 appearances minimum - Jones has 8, Rojo 9, Gomes 6, Chong 11. I guess it comes down to Pereira or Lingard and I guess I would go with Pereira as the most useless. Lingard at least runs around a bit.

Most improved player: Martial / Fred / Shaw / Matic all with a shout. Have to go with Martial.
Most disimproved player: A lot of the same names; Lingard / Pereira / Mata / David de Gea. Have to go with Lingard. Pereira Was always useless and I think recency bias is effecting everyone say DDG.

Non Man United players (Premier League only):

Best signing: Lots in with a shout.

Rodri23 Spain DM $88.00m
Mateo Kovacic25 Croatia CM $38.50m
Christian Pulisic20 United StatesCroatia LW $66.00m
Raúl Jiménez28 Mexico CF $38.50m
Leander Dendoncker24 Belgium DM $19.80m
Youri Tielemans22 BelgiumDR Congo CM $41.80m
Danny Ings26 England CF $16.50m


Have to say Ings for me.

Worst signing:

Lots more here that best....

Tanguy Ndombélé22 FranceDR Congo CM $71.50m
David Luiz32 BrazilPortugal CB $22.00m
Patrick Cutrone21 Italy CF $30.80m
Moise Kean19 ItalyCote d'Ivoire CF $44.00m
Sébastien Haller25 FranceCote d'Ivoire CF $44.00m
Joelinton22 Brazil CF $38.50m
Wesley22 Brazil CF $22.00m

I think it is very close for Kean, Haller, Joelinton and Wesley.

Ill go with Joelinton cause I think Kean will come good as he is 19.

Best player: KdB
Worst player: I would have to say someone on Norwich...

Most improved player: Traore, Mount, Pope, Ings all up there. Have to go Ings, been unreal.
Most disimproved player. Ozil, Stones. Have to go with Ozil, been totally useless on huge wages.

I dunno if you mean Martial hasn't actually gotten better but just been given games or that he hasn't improved much, but I do think he's added more to his #9 game in the physical battle for sure

It was Fred that I was referring to. I still don't rate him at all.

Worst player- De Gea.

Most improved player- Greenwood. Great kid.
Most disimproved player- De Gea.

We have the second best defense in the league behind LIverpool. Some of you lot really think Maguire is our worst singing? He has improved us a lot and is usually very consistent.
It's the price, an £80m should improve your team or else there's something drastically wrong. And an £80m player should be transformative and automatically become one of the best players on the team. Maguire has improved United, but not the latter two things. Fernandes cost £10-15m less than Maguire but had the £80m player transformation. If there was a complete flop then he would be ahead of Maguire for worst signing but all of James, Wan-Bissaka and Bruno were good signings.

James cost 5 times less than Maguire and wasn't bought to be a star of the team. He has done his job well and was overplayed for a while. If I stayed in a three-star hotel for three-star prices and it did the job fine, I would find that less disappointing than spending a fortune on a 5-star hotel that was an average 4-star hotel level.
