Ah. Wouldn’t put Varane in that boat tbh .. he actually came here in prime years, just struggled with fitness. Utd won’t get anywhere if Ronaldo and Dubrovka are to be relied upon .. obv. Eriksen has surprised to the upside .. but he’s in a different case of thanking his lucky stars he’s even still playing football as opposed to Aubameyang / Sterling coming down from Barca / City. There’s also the question of expectations being different at SB/OT currently.
But above all else none of those players are Potters players. With players of that ilk playing for what they might rightly see as a “novice” manager that feels pretty critical. We shall see how they all respond ..
