But on the pitch is one?
Omar Berrada | Man Utd CEO
- Thread starter IRELANDUNITED
- Start date
That line up is the equivalent of that top dog Barca team 10-15 years or so ago
Does this mean we're going to get a load of made up sponsors?
What about our noodle partner? What will happen to our legitimate sponsors?
tbf, much as I hate to admit it, that lot are a well run club and we've been very poorly run for a while now. Hopefully, it will be a positive appointment for the good of the club.

Laying back, smoking an imaginary cigar.
He's good but not that good.

He might have known but not have been legally okaying it? Again, I’m not saying anything either way but I’m struggling to see how he would be involved in false accounting or be some kind of important figure in a deal between the Dubai royal family and buffed numbers from Dubai sources. Hes not the one okaying it all, its that Tixi fella with his head on the blocks if they’re going up the chain of command in terms of over all responsibility surely? If he’s set a mandate in terms of FFP wriggle room then I’m sure he could argue he was fooled by false accounting as well.
Knowing us it’ll only be he who gets the blame!
The City forum is fun, when the news first arrives you get the honest reaction so alot of shocked posts about the news and also the acknowledgement that he is going for not only a better offer but also because he knows that City might be about to blown into oblivion. Then after an hour or so you get bravdo brigade and who offer the early posting Bluemooners some 'wet wipes'. say he is only going to United as a spy, or claim to have never heard of him.
Anyone have a clue what he does? Loads of media nonsense about haaland but anything concrete on what his job has covered and what he achieved ?
I can't pretend I know anything about him, but City have been extremely well run, so I think he is a good hire
Sure theres more out there (and it’ll come in next couple of days) but,..
“He was the chief football operations officer at City Football Groupoverseeing talent management, performance services and football intelligence. Prior to the role, which he has held since September 2016, Berrada had worked as commercial director for City Football Marketing before.”
I doubt it. He's basically never been mentioned on here before today.
That's an incredible hire. So pleased with our new ownership so far.
Haaland being the premiere available striker with a reasonable buy out fee for the richest club in the world whose dad also played for City in a window where anyone else that could’ve needed, afforded or been attractive to him was already stocked?
Hugely complicated coup for sure.
If this video is anything to go by, he’s a pretty integral senior official for them if him and Begiristain are discussing first team squad strategies.
Looking forward to all accountable for the last two transfer windows fired.
Now City will steal Murtough.

Never heard of him, but reports seem to indicate he was very highly thought of at City and envisioned to hold a key role for them for many years to come. Interesting that we poached City's "heir apparent" as athletic seem to suggest.

If you’re not on the Caf you haven’t made it in life basically
‘ The Club is determined to put football and performance on the pitch back at the heart of everything we do. Omar’s appointment represents the first step on this journey.’
No idea who he is or what he does. Yay!
Ratcliffe writing statements, nice Busby reference.
Done dealio
I get the feeling it’s going to annoy me and so many fans the next few months the calibre of appointments we may be getting, after a decade of Glazer horseshit and being peddled people like Woodward, Arnold and Judge.
What the feck is Donny doing in that video?
Interesting. I can’t get excited about anything anymore until you actually see results…but seems a step int eh right direction
Now confirmed by the glazers to the staff
Hopefully between Brailsford, Blanc, Berrada and (presume) Ashworth there's enough football nous, or even just basic intelligence, to manage to not spend another £280m on Casemiros, Mounts, Sanchos and Antonys.
He’ll be one of the brada, our brada!
Interesting take
I mean your club didn’t see fit to fire him all the while this has been looming. These things are rarely down to the actions of one single person and I think we all expect that City will never realistically be punished for this; It was all Berrada’s doing and we’re just so glad he’s gone and we can move on
however it would be absolutely hilarious if we’ve just handed City a scape goat.
You can tell from the statement, it's from Ineos camp. Very precise to 'taking the club where it belongs'
Incredible start to SJR's tenure. I have this renewed feeling of optimism again. More best in class appointments to follow surely.
Once he starts snitching on them cheats it's a good appointment.
Excellent, I like this determined and prompt decision making!
“It is our stated ambition to re-establish Manchester United as a title-winning club. We are pleased that Omar will be joining us to help achieve that goal, so that, once again, United fans can see, in the words of Sir Matt Busby, the red flag flying high at the summit of English, European and world football.”
