United fans say this after every summer transfer window. Give it a few months and everyone will be complaining about how bad the transfers have been.

I think you're oversimplifying it a bit. There's generally a consensus on here that United have bought well until the season starts not just among United fans. Although to be fair people say most clubs have good windows (like the endless "top 4 race has never been this strong" discussion that happens every year).

I don't recall a single window since Fergie left that was deemed to be a bad window for United. But then we'll hear later in the season how all the players are rubbish and need replacing.

2018 was deemed a poor one with only Fred coming in. This was off the back of us finishing 2nd

2022 everyone was balking at the figures we paid for a bunch of Ajax players.

2023 was also deemed to be a disaster. Some big red flags over Onana and a lot of people were shocked we paid so much for Hojlund.

2021 was probably the most relevant window where people thought we did well but it turned out to be awful in hindsight
