Do we really want to be in the manager market in a summer where Liverpool, Barcelona and bayern Munich are all looking for one?
You could argue circumstances have changed. We have new operators/owners now and they are football-orientated as opposed to money-orientated.
Liverpools somewhat a tricky proposition, to follow a great manager and inherit players who may mentally check out similar to United in 2013.
Barcelona has been rife with internal politics over the years, when guys who spent their entire lives there like Guardiola and Xavi up and leave. They’re also in financial trouble and I recall them having their salary cap reduced recently.
Bayern Munich don‘t seem to be the slick operators they once were, and this season they’re getting a humbling domestically.
I think we’ve got a chance to be just as appealing as those three clubs. Managers will be interested in how our new ownership hierarchy works, no-one knows how they work and if a convincing pitch is put forward then they’ll be keen. It’s a possible benefit of being the new operators on the block so to speak.
