Dwight Yorke names the player Man Utd sold who is better than their new signing: ‘I would’ve stuck with him!’

Dwight Yorke believes Manchester United should’ve stuck with Aaron Wan-Bissaka and feels he is a superior player than new signing Noussair Mazraoui.

There have been a number of changes to Erik ten Hag’s squad this summer, with the Red Devils deciding to sell right-back Wan-Bissaka to West Ham for £15m.

United have replaced Wan-Bissaka with Mazraoui, bringing in the Morocco international for a fee of £12.8m, with £4.3m in add-ons, from Bayern Munich.

Yorke is unsure about that particular piece of business and is worried his old club have made a transfer mistake, while he has also labelled United ‘unprofessional’.

‘Noussair Mazraoui has come in to replace Aaron Wan-Bissaka but the way he was used at United was slightly unprofessional,’ Yorke told Lord Ping.

‘He is so good defensively and wasn’t used to his strengths. Mazraoui will give more going forward if you want someone overlapping.

‘But the most important thing is defending – and that’s what Wan-Bissaka was best at – so I would’ve stuck with him.

‘I don’t think Mazraoui is an improvement on Wan-Bissaka, who was treated unprofessionally at Manchester United.’

Wan-Bissaka was singled out for praise after helping West Ham defeat Crystal Palace 2-0 on Saturday, especially for his involvement in the first goal.

Arsenal legend and football pundit Ian Wright said: ‘Wan-Bissaka does fantastic here where he won that ball.

‘Kept hold of it, kept it going, a brilliant ball inside and from here, you are hoping they can clear their lines Palace. They can’t quite clear their lines.

‘Then there he (Tomas Soucek) just coming onto it and he just puts it into the goal. Really good goal and work there from Aaron Wan-Bissaka, a former Palace player.’
