You say "argument" but you are referring to two different (but connected) arguments.More than half of our team the other night were players Ferguson left at the club, and have survived through 4 managers seemingly for a reason, while hundreds of millions of pounds worth of signings have been moved on already.
Ferguson left this club at the highest level in the world, with endless financial capacity and potential to grow. He left a title winning squad in need of improvement with freshening up of about three good signings that summer and a further transition the year after. The catastrophe that followed him is not his fault at all.
To say Ferguson is some way responsible for our descent makes almost no sense and a well considered, credible argument is almost impossible and certainly hasn’t been made here. It’s just nonsense.
1. The poor state of the team when SAF left.
2. Who is responsible for the current state of the club.
There are plenty of credible arguments about "1. The state of the team". See this post from a scant few posts ago for example: https://www.redcafe.net/threads/fergie’s-role-in-our-current-plight.446619/page-4#post-23991169 .
