They need moving on but mediocrity has been rewarded so it's going to be really difficult to do so. Ed et al are content with a Top 4 finish but the fact that clubs around United have all strengthened over the past few years means that gap has closed. Wolves winning last night was a shock to some, £#%&! knows why.
Shit recruitment since Fergie hasn't helped either.
Ole's got a huge task IMO and tbh unless the ins and outs are managed well, unless there's a good structure in place around him, I don't think it'll last and that'll be a shame.

Recruitment in Fergies last few seasons wasn’t that great either tbh.
We’ve been poorly run for quite a while...
