Remember when you asked me 9 months ago why I didn’t want him to get the full-time job despite winning every week? This is exactly why. He’s a club legend who was criminally underrated during his career, genuinely a genius but only United fans really understood how important he was, on the level of Rooney and Ronaldo. I didn’t want him taking this job, getting embarrassed, and damaging his legacy or his relationships with the players and fans.
It’s sad, but predictable. They’ll sack him, hire Conte, Nagelsmann, Cesc, or whoever, watch them fail, and repeat the cycle. Yes, the players have given up and are literally walking around the pitch, but it’s also because they see no hope. Hope comes from vision, purpose, and a clear path forward, and that starts at the top. We have the worst ownership group in professional sports, not just the Premier League.
