I think they are mixed up as a club, that clown woodward is being led a merry dance by raiola and mendes and result is a bunch of overpaid eegotistical mercenaries being put into a team who have no interest in playing as a team.

Could well be right. But although he's not a 'football' man, you'd think he'd be switched on enough to know if he's getting ripped. Mind you, he's taking advice from the manager that just got another year on his contract! Oh well!

Yep, this is the exact scenario I envision. It’s going to get worse for them. They’ll tread water at best until they realize they need a full scale top down rebuild — no marquis manager, no player brands, but young, ambitious, hardworking up and comers —- which might mean a few years out of any trophy hunts, even some time distinctly mid-table while they bed in new recruits and gell.
That assumes they actually DO realize this. I don’t think they will. They’re still on about “Manchester United quality” and all that bullshit as if they are by divine right inherently superior due to their badge. I’m not sure they can afford to break themselves down and start over. As such, it will be glorious to watch them slowly bleed to death.

Utter nonsense. A club of their stature would never buy a player just to sell shirts or to enhance their brand. And they've dozens of young, ambitious, hardworking up and comers filling their reserve and youth teams and every single one of them dreamt of playing for the rags.
Sanchez walked from Chile but got knackered crossing the channel and had a rest at Arsenal. Even as we speak former youth team players Ronaldo and Bale are trying to escape from their hell in Madrid in order to hitch hike to the theatre of scaffolding just to play for nothing. They never do anything just for the commercial benefits. Ever.
