"After so many victories, the fans got used to seeing their team only in the first place. And then, I think it lacks good wingers, as there could be many in the 90s. "Those who raise the level of a team. At that time, the use of wingers was very important, now a little less. In European football, there are few clubs that attach importance to the flanks."Maybe Bayern, but otherwise I don't see others. Through the flanks, there is everything that happens, the fast attacks and the centre-forwards that follow. There are not many good wingers in the world." Many critics of Mourinho's United tend to focus on the lavish sums spent on players, notably the £89 million ($118m) investment in Paul Pogba.Kanchelskis agrees that fees are getting out of control, but believes that the biggest clubs have no choice but to pay the going rate."Under Ferguson, there was no such investment," he added. "He was thrifty. But, in football, we see that every year, there is more and more money flowing."Everything is evolving. Of course it's a little too much. To my taste, it is. But you cannot escape this: if you want good football players, then pay the price. If you don't want them, don't pay. It's that simple."</blockquote>
