Alan Shearer
Former England striker

Despite activity in the transfer window, Alan Shearer is not convinced by Manchester United ahead of the Premier League starting.

Manchester United need a much bigger improvement if they are going to get closer, after finishing eighth last time.

Erik ten Hag’s side played well in the Community Shield last week, just like they did when they beat Manchester City in the FA Cup final in May, but now they need to produce those performances on a regular basis.

If they are going to find the consistency they have been lacking then they need to show that kind of discipline and desire, as well as the quality we know they have. I am expecting them to be better, but I am not convinced by them yet.
