Former England captain Alan Shearer has delivered a damning indictment of Manchester United's current form and branded them as just 'not very good'.
The Red Devils suffered another damaging defeat last night, this time a 2-1 reversal at the hands of FC Midtjylland, which led boss Louis van Gaal to admit his team are in a 'difficult situation'.
Speaking on BBC Radio 5 live, Shearer said, 'They’re not very good, that’s the problem - I know they have injuries at the moment but they didn’t have injuries three or four months ago and they weren’t playing particularly well then. They haven’t entertained their fans, which of course at that football club you have to do , you have to play a certain way and Louis van Gaal hasn’t.'
'His remit when he took over was to get them back into the Champions League, where David Moyes failed – he did that but this season has been pretty awful to watch.The leadership in that team is alarming – there’s no screaming and shouting at other teammates to tell them what to do. It just looks as if the players are not enjoying their football.'
