Paul Scholes has argued that Ineos did not need to blow most of the Manchester United summer budget on the midfield signings of Andrey Santos and Carlos Baleba.

Andrey Santos became the first major signing of the Michael Carrick era after the Red Devils landed him in a deal worth £50m from Premier League side Chelsea.

Manchester United paid an initial fee of £48m and agreed to a further £2m in add-ons to bring the 22-year-old Brazil international to Old Trafford in July.
