The new Premier League season is about to kick off, and Manchester United remains one of the most watched teams. When predicting Manchester United’s performance in the new season, Shearer and Lineker believe that it will be difficult for Manchester United to finish in the top four and qualify for the Champions League, while a number of Manchester United legends, including Neville, Scholes, Ferdinand, Keane and Hargreaves believe that the Red Devils will be in the top four.
Shearer believes that it will be difficult for Manchester United to finish in the top four: “Although the Community Shield, Manchester United impressed me, they have a chance to win the game. But from last season, Manchester United has been trying to improve its ranking, but they only finished 8th last season, and they will continue to fight for a Champions League spot next season.”
Lineker’s view is clear, he thinks Manchester United will not qualify for the Champions League: “I think they will miss out on the Champions League, their tactics are counter-attacking, but this tactic is difficult to be effective against the bottom half teams, unless they have a new tactical approach, it’s easy to get into the European competition, but the Champions League is difficult.”
As a Manchester United legend, Gary Neville supports Manchester United: “I am optimistic that Manchester United can qualify for the Champions League, they can finish in the top four, but I am not sure if Liverpool can finish in the top four.”
Richards agrees with Neville’s view: “I think Manchester United will finish fourth and qualify for the Champions League, they impressed me in the Community Shield, and they have made some good signings in the summer, and I believe Rashford will find his form.”
Owen Hargreaves and Scholes, as Manchester United legends, also insist that Manchester United can finish in the top four: “Manchester United are getting better and better, and the signings are good.” However, Scholes believes that Manchester United’s best ranking is 4th in the Premier League: “Many Manchester United fans are looking forward to the new season, and so am I.”
Two other Manchester United legends, Ferdinand and Roy Keane, also insist that Manchester United can qualify for the Champions League: “They will move from 8th last season to 4th in the new season, of course, there are still a few weeks left in the transfer window, and a lot of things can happen.”
