I think John Murtough is partially to blaim for most of this. He recruited and advised the club to get Wreck it Ralph, who had no premier league experience and was quick to blame everyone but himself, I was never a fan and would have preferred Carrick to be given the job until the end of the season he got a draw at Stamford bridge, and beat Arsenal. He knew the club, the Premier League and was his own man so deserved a chance and was unfortunately guilty by associating with ole. Ralph, the so called master of genggen press managed in 24 pl games won 10, drew 7 and lost 7 scoring 33 goals and conceding 33 goals, it’s no wonder ETH wanted him out the club, the worst record by any manager of united in the PL. So by insisting on Ralph, John Murtough now can’t get any of the targets he wants, you reap what you sow, had the club recruited a competent interim manager that had an expected 63% win rate 17% draw rate and 20% loss rate we would have won 16, drawn 3, lost 5 and recorded 51 points not the pathetic 37 and guess what we wouldn’t be having all these conversations about our pathetic ability to recruit players.
I wonder how long it is before ETH realises he’s working with inept execs and his next demand is for John Murtough to go too!
