The problem has never been solely on the managers. The biggest issues lie with the owners and the board, whose lack of ambition and incompetence continue to hold this club back.

🚨🎙️ - Erik ten Hag says that the Manchester United hierarchy BROKE A PROMISE by selling Scott Mctominay in 2024:
“In Ibiza, we agreed. I said, ‘No selling Scott McTominay’. We would go aligned in the transfer window.
“I make an argument, a reason: we don’t have scoring abilities. Scott brings scoring abilities and great mentality. He has United in all his veins.
“So when they bring up the subject, ‘No’. And in the end they sold him. I got, of course, very EMBARRASSED and DISAPPOINTED.”
