They’ve spent over £1bn on transfers since Ferguson retired. The second most in Europe. What would be enough? £2bn? 10?I love our owners as well. But not as much as I love United's. Both have played a huge part in our success.
I don’t think the transfer spend has been their problem. Bad management has.
They had one of the best managers of all time who completely overachieved in his last few years.
They appointed probably the 2nd best manager in the world at the time a couple of years back, are they saying, anything less than the best manager in the world isn’t good enough?
Fergurson appointed Moyes. Van Gaal was a no brainer at the time. Mourinho was a no brainer. Lolé is getting their identity back.
The reason they’ve got their knickers in a twist is because City are so well run on and off the pitch.
But the management model they’ve had for the last 10 years that’s been a disaster is the same model they had for the previous 20 that was super successful.
That’s not really the Glazers fault imo. If they’d changed the structure and it didn’t work, they’d have got slaughtered. Not “The United Way”.
Fergurson is as much to blame for their last 10 years as the Glazers are imo.
