Netherlands legend Ruud Gullit feels Manchester United are a major problem highlighting how players have done well after leaving the club.
Ruud Gullit slams Man United over player performance for other clubs originally appeared on The Sporting News
Manchester United have had a slow start to their 2025/26 Premier League campaign with a defeat and a draw against Arsenal and Fulham respectively.
There are questions over manager Ruben Amorim, who at this point has a horrible record as United manager.
The Red Devils have also struggled to sell their surplus players including the likes of Jadon Sancho, Alejandro Garnacho, Antony and Tyrell Malacia.
They are considered the 'bomb squad' as Amorim has clearly revealed that they are free to leave the club and are not in his plans.
However, Netherlands legend Ruud Gullit recently made a strong criticism on Manchester United as he highlighted how every player that has left the club has done well for other teams.
"Everyone who leaves Manchester United suddenly plays great at their new club," Gullit said in the latest episode of Rondo, a football talk show on Ziggo Sport.

"Scott McTominay at Napoli, Marcus Rashford at Aston Villa, and Antony at Real Betis. Manchester United is the problem, 100%"
Former Man United players are doing well at other clubs
Man United have had several internal issues and therefore many players had too scrutiny on them when they featured for the Red Devils.
However, once they were out of Manchester, they often produced great performances mainly due to lack of pressure and expectation to perform a certain way every week.
The biggest example of this has to be McTominay, who has been an absolute sensation for Napoli ever since moving from United.
The Scotland international was instrumental in guiding Napoli to the Serie A last season and was named Serie A's MVP for his heroic performances.
He finished the Serie A 2024/25 campaign with 12 goals and four assists and was the joint-highest goalscoring midfielder in the league.
His performances were stark different from his struggles at Old Trafford, so much so that he shockingly got nominated for Ballon d'Or.
Similarly, Antony and Rashford also proved their point on loan stints at Real Betis and Aston Villa as the former guided his team to the Conference League final where they eventually lost to Chelsea.
Currently, Rashford has moved to Barcelona for another loan spell and Antony is close to joining Betis in a loan to buy obligation deal as per as per several reports in the media.
