Why do we want the club to buy such expensive players? If we do end up signing De Ligt for £85m, how can you run with the manager above everything structure? How much is a manager worth in modern football? Not £85m. Definitely not the £500m+ squad he's managing.
Maybe it's why Fergie himself never bought such expensive players. The more expensive the squad and its players, the lesser his own value is. It's much easier to ask the club to right off £10m, if a player falls out of line. Than asking the club to right off £90m for the same reason. Which is what Mourinho wanted the club to do after he fell out with Pogba.
