There was a bit done on sports radio show here in Ireland about united and their problems and it was very interesting, they think Ferguson is the problem.
Drew comparisons to Busby and O'Neill when they were in transition. Apparently every manager since Ferguson left has had the same issue, he undermines them, tries to interfere and if players dont like the managers decision, they run to Fergie who wades in.
That would cause a serious dressing room split and would explain a bit how they are so poor with the money spent. It was an interesting listen.
