    This is going to be very interesting. Swift and decisive isn't the Glazers style, meaning this is most likely an Ineos initiative. If they can now bring in some solid people and make this a well oiled club again, it could very well mean that United could finally be back to a good place. The most important thing now when it comes to on pitch performances will be recruitment, as United's recruitment has been very up and down. Its rare they make a signing like Bruno. Hopefully they can start buying smart again instead of wasting money on players that ultimately doesn't work out. Not to mention the insane overspending on players like Jadon Sancho, Antony and so many more

    Then the issue of updating the squad and if the manager is suitable for the new vision can be addressed.
    Then we can say indeed Man Utd has entered the modern era.
    I really pray Glazers take a back seat and don't put a turd in the football punch bowl. They are toxic and negative influence on any progress.

      On the one hand, it does look like he's taking the chance to get away from under the reputational damage when the Man City bubble implodes. On the other, if it does, I don't see how the people involved don't get sanctioned - presumably the club officials who are guilty of not submitting honest and true financial reports to the PL wouldn't just get away with it. If so, ManU might be in a Paratici-like situation.

    Not only does Ten Hag have to show a style of play. He has to show front foot POSSESSION BASED FOOTBALL. I am not going to stand for "fans" wanting to sack Jose Mourinho (the best Transition football manager in history) only to back negative 54 goal Ten Hag ball.
    Ten Hag was ONLY HIRED for his style of play. He does not have the CV. He was only brought in based on the potential and his possession based style of play. If he tries to be a Jose Mourinho he should be fired. We just sacked the original. We will not accept a poor imitation.

      Absolute nonsense. A managers job is to get the players playing. End of story. You either do that or you have failed.
      Ole had a MUCH worse team and got 2nd and 3rd. He spent less in 3 years than Ten Hag has in 18 months AND half the signings were done by Woodward and not Ole. Even when the team start losing the players weren't dropping their heads or giving a lack of effort. They just weren't good enough. The players came out repeatedly and said it wasn't Ole's fault but theirs. That isn't happening for Ten Hag because it actually is his fault. He is a toxic personality.
      There is a reason that Spurs rejected him for lacking charisma. No successful manager has ever been bad at man management. It is the most important part of the game.
      Just look at Jose. He was incredibly charismatic and had players who would for him during his successful spell. Now that he is older and more bitter and pisses players off, he can't even keep his job at Roma.
      Erik Ten Hag has 450 million reasons why none of his excuses wash. Just another failed eredivisie manager. He can join McClaren and Frank de Boer as failed managers

      @thebiglebrowski3695 and as Jose said, he had to manage everyone, not just the players. Got sacked when he lost the dressing room. The players sacked him. Same with Ole. Would be the same with Ten Hag. Sooner or later, you have to go through the pain to get to the end product. Now that Ten Hag has the structure being developed, he needs the opportunity to develop it. Say all you want about his signings, bit most of them haven't been playing this season, and the ones that have are coming into an unsettled team, in an unsettled club, ravaged by injury and off field issues. So see how he finishes the season, and let's make the decision then. Let's not repeat the same mistake over and over again.

    It’s difficult to say. The optimist says it’s a coup to poach a serious executive who knows success in the previous organisations he’s been a part of. The skeptic comments just like in the video that the Catalans are in all the photos of success, and Berrada was not. The cynic answers that after leaving Barcelona, the club has fallen into financial ruin and has haemorrhaged world-beating players as a result. Is that because they lost the expertise of the likes of Berrada, or was it a sinking ship because it wasn’t being managed as well as it appeared? Equally, City have a multitude of white-collar charges levelled against them and Berrada was involved with the business side of the club during some of that time. He resigns from City roughly at the same time as the Premier League admits that there is going to be an escalation in the case against City with dates being set.
    I’m a United supporter. I want to believe that Ineos are a new dawn for my club and that serious people are on the way to make the necessary decisions to get us back to where we ought to be. It isn’t going to happen in the first six months though. Maybe not even eighteen months. Executives like Berrada aren’t supposed to be subject to the same managerial merry-go-round that we associate with football. They have been in the last ten years, to a degree. Let’s see what some serious people with continuity and a plan can achieve.

    The Glazers manage Manchester United akin to a typical American hedge fund, prioritizing dividend generation over the sporting aspect. Their primary concern appears to be the share price rather than the team's performance. This situation is reminiscent of what occurred at Boeing, where the 737 Max program was exploited through extensive corner-cutting to expedite its release, resulting in a surge of orders. Unfortunately, the leadership at Boeing primarily consisted of pencil-pushing accountants and seasoned CEOs instead of engineers, leading to tragic consequences with people losing their lives.

    Manchester City have lost many execs to other clubs since Pep's arrival, 2 assistant managers, chief of recruitment, medical team, Academy. Manchester City will continue to be successful as the organization is not reliant on any single individual.
    The media needs to calm down over this transfer, it's a good acquisition but not the end of Manchester City's domination. The clamor to speak negatively about any news concerning City shows the level of jealousy held by other clubs fans and media.

    I would love to know why SJR is putting so much of his time, expertise and money into the club and yet he will never own it. If united start to challenge for top honours the Glazers will just get more money and never sell. Can you explain the logic🥴

    • @samwize28
      @samwize28 Před 4 měsíci +4

      SJR has a clause where he has first dibs on the glazers shares in the future at a fixed £33 price (which is much higher than the currnet price).
      The idea is that SJR increases the clubs value up to £40+ territory within that time frame (via making sensible choices and making football priority etc). Now the glazers can sell the club at that magic £33 rate to SJR.
      SJR wins because hes buying shares that are worth £40 for only £33.
      The glazers win because £33 per share is a very high price and will represent a pay day they would never have dreamed of. And they cant get greedy and sell for £40 to qatar instead for example because SJR has the clause that gives him first rights.
      Also note that the glazers are divided. The 4 siblings will cash out, leaving only joel and Avram as minority leeches as a worst case scenario.
      SJR 10000% wants the whole club. that should be obvious. We need to trust that hes smarter than the glazers (which as a self made billionare he is) and will outmanouvre them
      Ineos are a trogan horse and will take over MUFC. That is the hope atleast

In the same way, are they letting Utd have someone who will long term implode and bring disrepute to Utd if he was involved in the City financial scandals. Is he a Trojan Horse being sent into the heart of United business, with City's blessing? If he was involved in the financial scandal, he will have to quit, leaving Utd in a worse state than before.

    The question remains, will the skills and experience that Barrada showed at City translate into his new role at United ? As CEO he will be a couple levels at least above the CFOO role he had at City and therefore they won't be expecting their new CEO to be getting involved in sponsorship contracts and crunching numbers on marketing deals. Those aspects will be delegated to someone below his new pay grade. Could be 2 years before he gets the team he wants around him. Put the champagne back in the fridge for now re Barrada.
