Neil Warnock has savaged Manchester United's recent recruitment, insisting he wouldn't take the club's \u00a370million flops in the Championship.<\/p>\n

The 74-year-old, who had stints in the Premier League with Sheffield United, Crystal Palace and QPR, last managed Huddersfield, who are 21st in the Championship. Warnock left the club in September after a poor start to the season, but claimed his side would have been worse off if they had some of Erik ten Hag's signings in their team.<\/p>\n

"The money that he\u2019s spent, people forget. Whatever you think about the owners they've spent some massive money," he told talkSPORT. "Some of the players, they\u2019ve spent \u00a360-70m. I wouldn\u2019t have had them with me at Huddersfield."<\/p>\n

Ten Hag's future at United is in serious peril after his side were mauled 3-0 by Newcastle in the Carabao Cup, days after losing to Manchester City by the same scoreline. Securing a top four finish and landing the club's first piece of silverware in six years last season bought him room to stumble, but he won't last long if he fails to stop the rot.<\/p>\n

Warnock added: "I don\u2019t think he will last, personally. I\u2019m not sure he wants to last either. I think he knows he\u2019s banging his head against a brick wall."<\/p>\n

Where would Man Utd finish this season if Neil Warnock took over manager tomorrow? Let us know in the comments section below.<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

The vast majority of Ten Hag's major signings at United have failed to live up to expectations. Antony has looked nowhere near an \u00a385m player, while the likes of Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount, who joined for a combined \u00a3120m this summer, have made little impact yet.<\/p>\n

Andre Onana, who was brought in to replace stalwart goalkeeper David de Gea, has had a calamitous start to life at Old Trafford. While Casemiro, who was admittedly one of United's best players last season, is showing signs of significant decline which, considering he has three years left on a \u00a3300,000-a-week contract, is bad business.<\/p>\n
