The Glazers took over in 2005 and everything football related was delegated to Ferguson, everything went through him, he had the first and final word on everything. At no point it seems was there ever any clarity vision of what would happen when he called it a day. But then again that's what happens when you've got a family of american bandits in the boardroom. I can't believe that Gill was allowed to walk away at the same time. The backroom staff, the manager and the chief exec all gone in one summer - completely ripped the guts out of the club. It just seems we've become as someone on here said before " a low rent real madrid" |

We've had the coaching staff, director role and playing staff all ripped out. And Ed Woodward left to fix it. |

Set us back a decade I'd say, especially when you consider the man now in charge of a lot of the footballing decisions is a hamster faced money man We desperately need a director of football or what ever it is they're called. |

quite interesting to see people who spent season after season shouting for more and greater amounts of cash to spent on signing players now realising that it's building a team that sets managers and clubs apart.
there are very very few clubs like real madrid who can do it and win CL and world cups - even they struggled post galacticos. talk about net spends, which accelerated and occupied so many peoples' flawed thinking on squad building post-ronaldo has been shown pretty clearly now to be complete turd. united were successful under fergie because he assembled a great balance of abilities and personalities. people slagging those individuals off for years as they did and as they still do are morons. |

That said, I do think Ferguson's transfers during those latter years would have given even him a tough chance of rebuilding quickly as the last title-winning side aged. Great teams have great players; all ours needed replacing. But it was Fergie; he'd have found a way |

I think any United fan had more than a right to be pissed off at what happened in 2009. Sold the best player in the world and signed Obertan and Michael owen ffs. The fact that the team was on a steady downward trajectory since that point would also support the fact the critics had a point. |

would we really take anyone from spurs? the coach. that's it. he'd soon have our players playing better than spurs. maybe one of their central defenders if we had to. but £#%&! off do they have better players than us. |

here's a potential XI for eg: de gea, rafael, jones, evans, evra, valencia, kagawa, cleverley, nani, welbeck, hernandez. we also had van persie who was far from finished at that point - peaking if anything. and we had young forwards brady and king coming through, plus potentially tunicliffe, and wilson amongst others coming through behind them too. we had smalling still yet to show his level fully, plus top class players in carrick and ferdinand still around the place. plus rooney of course. and vidic. plus greast pros like fletcher and young. so it's a £#%&!ing good group, with plenty of nous and plenty of potential. and the balance is fine, with lots of scope for the new manager to put a mark on it directly through the spine. |

2 completely different teams who play in completely different styles. For a start, people are picking individuals based on their individual talent, and not players who would thrive in the system spurs play. Dunk, throb and siders are all correct...... |
