Ince rips into Man Utd’s transfer policy
Paul Ince blasted Manchester United’s transfer policy as he slammed the signing of Donny van de Beek and urged the club to land Raul Jimenez.
The former United legend couldn’t see why the Red Devils forked out £40million to poach Van de Beek from Ajax over the summer as he is yet to start a Premier League game.
Ince, speaking exclusively to Ladbrokes at its launch of the 5-A-Side Bet on Leicester v Wolves, said: “They’ve spent £40m on Donny van de Beek and they’re not playing him. I don’t know why they signed him.
“Maybe there’s a situation where Pogba could be going at the end of the season and Van de Beek could come in.
“But if you’ve spent £40m on a player, you put him in! Put him in the team.

“Midfield players are supposed to score goals. Even when you watch him shoot – he can’t shoot!
“That’s why you spend money on players, but then you’ve got to put them in the team.
“Bruno Fernandes came in and was straight in the team. Van de Beek must be sat there thinking ‘what have I done?'”
Ince suggested a combination of poor recruitment and results will heap the pressure on boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
