Man City vs Leicester City Live
The most worrying thing for Manchester United right now, as their last hope of qualifying for the Champions League slipped away at Huddersfield with Sunday's 1-1 draw, is that there is no guarantee things will get better any time soon.
Players will come and go over the summer as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer gets his first real chance to shape his squad, but we have been here before. David Moses, Louis van Gaal and Jose Mourinho have all been given money to spend -- more than £600 million between them -- since Sir Alex Ferguson retired; but for the fourth time in six years since the Scot departed, United will finish the season outside of the Premier League's top four.
Huddersfield had lost 22 of the past 24 games in all competitions but ended the afternoon feeling disappointed they had been unable to find a winner. Solskjaer said afterward that his team "had not been good enough." He was right, but it was an assessment that could easily be applied to most of the games played since Ferguson signed off.
The summer promises a fresh start, but just a week away from the end of the season, there are far more questions than answers. De Gea is on the verge of entering the final year of his contract. There are doubts about Paul Pogba's future. There is still no technical director in place, leaving Solskjaer to orchestrate the recruitment drive alongside executive vice-chairman Ed Woodward.
There are deficiencies in every area of the squad. The defence has conceded a goal in each of their past 14 games: United's worst run since 1970. At the other end, they've managed to score two goals in a game just once in the past two months, contributing to a dismal run of just two wins from their past 11 games in all competitions.
