While I am relieved at the Casemiro signing because of the criminal underinvestment in the midfield in recent years, I can't help but think of our team as a disjointed group of mercenaries.
I can't name a single starting player who is here because of his eagerness to play for the club. We have become a mercenary magnet due to our ineptitude in the market and lack of direction.
Players at top clubs who are in the last phases of their careers and whose starting places are at risk simply jump over to us for a last big handout. We don't have a core group of hungry players who play for the shirt anymore. You can only bring in so many such players till the culture is completely transformed.
We have players who do a job to get paid. We don't have players who want to excel so that they can bring glory to Man Utd. Rant Over.
