Ratcliffe says some Man Utd players not good enough

Ratcliffe, whose buy-in to the club was largely welcomed by the fans, said the 20-times English champions are in a period of transformation and that tough decisions were being made.
United have made job cuts this season and the 72-year-old Ratcliffe said the club would have run out of money by the end of the year if no corrective actions were taken.
Several Manchester United players are "not good enough" while some others are being "overpaid", the club's co-owner Jim Ratcliffe said on Monday as manager Ruben Amorim faces an uphill task to turn around the side's fortunes.
Ratcliffe gave his backing to Amorim, who took charge in November following the sacking of Erik ten Hag, even though the Portuguese has struggled to turn around the team's fortunes with United down in 14th place in the Premier League.
