Manchester United icon Nicky Butt has warned fans that history could be in danger of repeating itself with the eventual fate of one of Ruben Amorim's summer signings this season.
The Manchester club were highly active in the transfer market over the summer, bringing in a raft of new recruits as Amorim sought to shape his team in his own image after arriving mid-season last term.
The Portuguese manager will have been pleased to have a summer to prepare for the new season and a number of new additions to the squad after their woeful 15th-placed finish at the end of last season.
