Last 5 years since Fergie and GILL left
1. Highest wage bill in the Premier League
2. Second Highest spend barely, including the 2 biggest transfers in PL record both for Mourinho ( They could spend more and with better planning I agree, but we have spent a lot) Di Maria was a transfer record also
3. Major improvements (SINCE GILL) in the Academy and a good record of signing and promoting youth players to the first team and the National team
4. Best Squad of players since 2010 ( Although admittedly under achieving. This squad is so much more talented under the right coach
A non existent plan for succession and poor choice of coaches, sacking and hiring and lack of long term vision. There is a willing to spend despite what people say, but a lack of experience at Director level of implementing what is needed at a top football club
Mourinho isn't right for this club and it's traditions and will never be backed fully to buy all the players he would want over a mix of young players, so he should be paid off and let go, because he is becoming poison. We are trying to tie down Martial and De Gea to sign contracts and Pogba looks like a want away. It would be too difficult to replace them.
Just do the right thing Woodward for once. We could put in an interim manager Queiroz or Jardim with Carrick and Mckenna and give us time to appoint someone permanent at the end of the season. Zidane or Pochettino. It would improve under a better atmosphere with a coach who is more relaxed and an ex player for the rest of the season
I don't see the point in keeping him if we get 4th or not!? Waiting for the maths to exclude us from 4th could take until April or May anyway, then we are at a huge disadvantage and time constraints.
He is doing damage to the squad at this stage as he's lost most of that dressing room and some of our top players won't sign contracts. You can argue that that is the players fault somewhat, but he hasn't helped himself as his beahviour has been selfish and erratic since pre-season and even going back to the CL last season.
