Man Utd squad as expensive as Man City squad – Jamie Carragher expects more from ‘awful’ Man Utd
Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher believes Manchester United should offer more as the Red Devils have a squad as expensive as that of Manchester City.
The cost of assembling the current Manchester United squad stands at £801million with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City squad costing £800million.
Despite the similar amounts spent in assembling the squads, there is a huge difference in the fortunes of the two teams.
Manchester City have won three out of the last four Premier League titles and are currently top in the Premier League while Manchester United haven’t won the Premier League since Alex Ferguson retired in 2013 and are currently sixth in the league.
Carragher said: “This Manchester United, yes they’re awful, but this is one of the most expensively assembled squads in the history of the game.
“It’s right up there with Manchester City.”
