Manchester United
- Thread starter Bedfordblue
- Start date
I’ve been watching football since the 1990’s, so I don’t remember the last time United were this bad
I didn’t think I’d ever see it
There’s a journo in the video below saying that only mismanagement would wreck Man United, and at the time that seemed unthinkable
It’s amazing how this stuff can happen
I don’t think Ferguson gets enough stick for it tbh
It was obvious that the team he won the league with in 2013 was considerably weaker than his past squads and he mostly won the league by default due to City, Chelsea and Arsenal not being at the races
He got one more title for the record books and then bailed on the rebuild, heading upstairs like a stone gargoyle looming over every new manager like the spectre at the feast
One thing Ratcliffe got right was getting rid of Ferguson
It was beyond time
He both gave that club everything and then laid the table for its demise by chumming up to the Glaziers and leaving an aging and average side for Moyes to inherit. Plus, he was the one pushing for Moyes in the first place, probably because it was win-win for him
If Moyes failed, then it just made Ferguson look all the better, and if he succeeded then Ferguson takes the credit for picking the right replacement

I’m sure his teammates egged him on to put a shot in…
