Varane Struggles for Game Time

Manchester United defender Raphael Varane has come under fire from former player Gary Neville for his performances at the club. Varane, who joined United in 2021, has struggled to make an impact since his arrival, leading to speculation of a fallout with manager Erik ten Hag.

Underwhelming Performances

Despite his impressive track record, which includes four Champions League titles with Real Madrid, Varane has failed to live up to expectations at Manchester United. Neville criticized the French centre-back for not performing at the level expected of him in big matches and tournaments.

A Lack of Leadership

Neville highlighted Varane's lack of dominance and leadership on the field, suggesting that he prefers to play alongside a more dominant centre-back. This was a role he had at Real Madrid, but has not been able to replicate at United.

Struggles for Stability

Varane's struggles have been evident in Manchester United's performance this season. The team has lost seven of their opening 16 Premier League matches, conceding 21 goals in the process. This lack of stability in defense has been a concern for the club.

As Varane continues to adapt to life at Manchester United, it remains to be seen if he can turn his performances around and prove his worth to the team.
