Ten Hag blasted for making 'two of the worst transfers' in Man Utd's history

Erik ten Hag's legacy at Manchester United has come to an end but traces of his tenure still linger at Old Trafford. The Dutch manager has been heavily criticised on multiple occasions for his transfer decisions, with a clear appointment of Brazilian winger Antony.

But his compatriot Casemiro has also been heavily criticised for his recent performances for the Manchester side. "The performances have been really poor this season, the results have been shocking, the league position is terrible," United legend Gary Neville said on It's Called Soccer!

"His legacy is definitely winning two trophies in two seasons through a very difficult point. The recruitment to be fair has been appalling for ten years and he’s been a victim of that himself. I think he oversaw two of the worst transfers Manchester United will ever have made in the signings of Casemiro and Antony," the former team's star continued.

"They were signed for £140-150m in a panic after the Brentford and Brighton losses. I hope I’m wrong, I hope Casemiro can do a great job for the club for four or five years and I hope Antony comes good. But those signings are why United have had to go back into the transfer market and sign [Manuel] Ugarte and other players.

"That was the ultimate in poor management from those above Erik ten Hag. That should have been one big fat no when those two players became available for those prices and those salaries," he concluded.

Nonetheless, Neville made these comments about Casemiro before the Brazilian scored a brace in the Red Devils' 5-2 win over Leicester in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.
