All this would cost the board money. And United have been in the limelight plenty for being careful on how much they spend on their players and their salaries. Would any manager accept to such limitations. The likes of Sven Goran Eriksson spending 100 million last summer to strengthen an already strong Lazio. Would the United board ever agree that for United when already they have a squad who, come Christmas, are 15 points clear of the Table.
New players mean the loss of talent.
The likes of Butt, Brown, Silvestre, Fletcher, Wilson, Greening, and many more would lose out their moment at the theatre of Dreams and never make it to the level which would only benefit England. Imagine the ones who have the potential and have yet to reach there. A manager who s from England itself will know what s available. Will know that to expect and where they could find bargains. An English man will think longer term approach possibly but his lack of international experience could undermine United s performance in the Champions League.
