EPL: Jamie Carragher names Man Utd star who is big problem for Ten Hag
Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher has identified goalkeeper David de Gea as a big problem for Manchester United under their manager Erik ten Hag.
Carragher believes Ten Hag has a bigger transfer priority of fixing the goalkeeping department than finding a new striker in the summer window.
He disclosed this in a tweet via his Twitter handle after Man United’s FA Cup final 2-1 defeat to Man City at the Wembley Stadium.
Recall that a brace from Ilkay Gundogan ensured Man City defeated Man United to win the FA Cup.
“David de Gea is a big problem for Man United!” Carragher wrote on Twitter.
“Is fixing that position more important than them signing a striker?”
