I understand what you mean, it’s great when you have homegrown talent in the team, but that only gets you so far if you want to compete at the top you have to be ruthless about players.

I actually think he has a negative impact on the team, he just doesn’t seem focused on football more interested it doing silly handshakes or instagram videos. If he left I would imagine Rashford would be much more focused.

He’s like that class clown who people laugh at and then sometimes join in but are very disruptive to the flow of the classroom.

So much easier to integrate a new/ young player into the squad when the team is doing well and winning trophies, like Fergie did for years with many average players. Not so easy to do when the team isn't doing well. Then the young player stands out like a sore thumb if he isn't up to scratch.

Great article, Ed001! Never knew the full story - I always heard snippets since I was in Dubai at the time of DIC's interest and worked with some of its sister companies - but never the full story.

Onwards and upwards with Edwards!

{Ed001's Note - thank you mate, we are in much better hands now. No one is perfect, but at least FSG try and learn from their mistakes rather than make excuses about them.}
