The Red Devils signed Jadon Sancho, Cristiano Ronaldo and Raphael Varane last summer but failed to address their long-term concerns in midfield.
The club added Ronaldo and Sancho to an already strong list of players involving Marcus Rashford, Mason Greenwoos, Edinson Cavani and Anthony Martial.
Questioning their decision to bring in Ronaldo, who will turn 37 in a fortnight, Nicholas told MyBettingSites:
Nicholas feels Ronaldo’s move has not paid off for United.
Nicholas further feels that Ronaldo is a different type of forward than the likes of Rashford and Greenwood. He feels that is the reason why the two English strikers are faring poorly this season. He said:
Nicholas has told the young English forwards to focus on their own development instead of seeking inspiration from CR7. He added:
Manchester United win 3-1 against Brentford
Ralf Rangnick’s Red Devils beat Brentford 3-1 on Wednesday night. However, the scoreline does not completely reflect the proceedings of the game.
Brentford could have all but run away with the game in the first half had David De Gea not made numerous incredible saves. United came out a much better team in the second 45 and grabbed their chances to win the game.
United will want to build on their win when they take on West Ham United in their next Premier League game on Saturday.
