Very important. I've written this before. When he was pontificating about what made him such a great manager to Harvard Business School students, he referenced 8 principles of effective leadership. One of them was "complete control".And no pisscan overseeing it all.
Let's start with the fact that I think that absolutely is the opposite of what makes an effective leader, but it is something to strive for if one is an autocratic megalomaniacal narcissist.
Once the Glazers were finally rid of him, do you think they were EVER going to give that kind of "complete control" to ANYONE in the organization again, especially the manager?
Nope.
We know they know how to find an "Official Instant Coffee Brand of Manchester United", but do they know dick about football?
Nope.
So can they find a high-quality but docile manager who will do as he's told to ensure the sanctity of the balance sheet and cash flow statement AND give him time AND give him money AND allow him to be de facto DoF AND win things again?
Fucking NOPE.
