We've become profitable because of increased TV deals, greater success in the CL and through commercial deals which are mainly driven via Abu Dhabi and which he had little to do with.

Prices have gone up significantly on his watch and you don't have to be the world's best businessman to do that. In fact you aren't a good businessman if you alienate increasing numbers of your core customer base.
He's probably done a good job in setting up the CFG but I don't give a shit about that if I'm being honest. If his staff don't like him then he's not even doing a good job there, as a good CEO will have his staff run through brick walls for him.
