Former Manchester United head of youth recruitment, Derek Langley: “Players #mufc turned down? Matthijs de Ligt. We had God knows how many reports on Matthijs de Ligt. Frenkie de Jong and all these players now are sort of around Europe."
Langley: "This was one of the reasons why I had a meeting with Ed Woodward and I told him that I wasn't convinced with the competency of certain people at the club."
Langley: “I told Woodward quite straight: 'If you think I'm going to sit here and just tell you what you want to hear, I'm not that man because I'm going to tell you exactly how I see it'."

That is our ex head scout saying this about the chief executive, there’s your evidence that the bloke who is in charge of every important aspect of this club is a clown. This club will never move forward as long as he is in charge.
Incompetence of Ed Woodward
