Manchester United midfielder Andrey Santos has struggled to secure regular starting spots since his £50m move from Chelsea this summer. Liverpool legend Steven Gerrard recently delivered a harsh verdict on the Brazilian, calling him "not good enough" for United. Gerrard stressed that midfield players in top tiers of football need to be "world-class" to compete for titles, citing players like Declan Rice, Martin Odegaard, Fabinho, and Georginio Wijnaldum.
He singled out Bruno Fernandes as the only world-class midfielder in United's midfield, calling Santos "not a Manchester United player." Gerrard also mentioned that Santos has started only two games since his arrival and could be outclassed against top European sides. Santos has faced a slow start at Old Trafford, but United fans hope he can justify the club's significant investment.
