CHRIS WHEELER: Man United's right wing position is at an all-time low with Mason Greenwood out, Jadon Sancho cast aside and Antony banished... £200m has been spent but Erik ten Hag has no clear option

We used to call right wing the problem position at Manchester United.

Back in 2020, when Mason Greenwood was just emerging as a seemingly unstoppable force and the club were being frustrated in their attempts to sign Jadon Sancho, it was one area where United were lacking.

That felt wrong for a club with such a rich history of wide players. Best, Ronaldo, Giggs, Beckham, Kanchelskis, Sharpe, the list goes on.

Then United began to stock up on right wingers. In fact, for a while it felt like the only players coming into Old Trafford were right wingers.
