🚨 Sir Jim Ratcliffe on Manchester United’s Champions League draw:
🗣️Reporter:
“Is this current squad good enough to qualify for the knockout stages?”
🗣️Sir Jim Ratcliffe:
“Looking at the teams we’re going to face, I believe Manchester United are better than most of them. Bayern Munich and Atlético Madrid could be the difficult ones, but history speaks for itself.
I remember when United faced Bayern in the 1999 Champions League final. That spirit is still here. We believe we can win.
‘They have Olise, we have Bruno Fernandes. They have Kane, we have Sesko.(laughs)’
I have so much belief in this coach and these players. This is the year we go for our fourth Champions League.”
🚨 NEW!

🚨🗣️Ruben Amorim on Manchester United;
“If Manchester United change the ownership tomorrow, I promise you something — that club can win the Premier League and the UEFA Champions League next season. The players are good enough, the fans are powerful enough… the only thing missing is leadership that actually understands football.”
🚨 Patrice Evra says Manchester United urgently need a consistent, fit left-back, with the club having used around 20 different players in the position since his departure.
He says they’ve never truly replaced him because none have consistently stayed fit and performed at a high level.
Evra names Denis Irwin as United’s greatest ever left-back, ahead of himself, while calling Ashley Young the best left-back the club have had since he left.
