According to the report on UK Sun, Paul Merson explained that he does not see Manchester United finishing among the top four stressing that Cristiano Ronaldo should be dropped.

Paul Merson's reaction about Manchester United

"In terms of their team, I strongly believe Cristiano Ronaldo should be left out of the team.
"It won’t happen, but Edinson Cavani should take his place upfront with the likes of Jadon Sancho, Marcus Rashford and Mason Greenwood in contention to play on the wings.
"Something’s just not right there. I think there is a lot going on behind the scenes and it doesn’t look good for them."
