Demands for drastic changes within Manchester United arguably dominate discussions in every other soccer circle. Some want manager Erik ten Hag sacked. Another lot demands the club’s American owners, the Glazers, to step down. Meanwhile, quite a few have also made calls for the Premier League giants to rebuild their squad, even at the cost of letting certain stars go. Now, a former soccer player turned analyst candidly opined that the Red Devils should show the door to three players, in order to thrive.

The January transfer window will commence in a few days. At this juncture, soccer analyst Janusz Michallik laid out a plan for Manchester United to make the best of the January window. This includes a move to let go of three veterans!

Erik ten Hag prompted to let go of three big names

In his recent conversation with Dalen Cuff on an ESPN FC episode, Janusz Michallik explained a transformation is the need of an hour at Old Trafford. Despite Casemiro’s Champions League pedigree and a decent first season with Erik ten Hag’s side, Michalik pointed out that he should be the first one United should sell in the January window. Then he revealed the next two stars that should go. “Players like Bruno [Fernandes] and [Marcus] Rashford, in my opinion, I would float it out there. Because if you truly are going to rebuild this team, then you’ve to say to yourself, these players, to one degree or another, have been underperforming.”
