If I were an owner of a business obviously questions would be asked to my staff.
Wage bill is the highest in the premier at £226m being £46m more then Chelsea being the next .
We will be letting Paul Pogba go free again after spending £80m on a poor return on asset investment.
Two players are sat on the bench after investing £110m in these assets with no production from them .
In business the people responsible for these poor investments would be removed .
But this is MU money seems is able to be thrown around as long as share holders have dividends each year !

But our owners are absent. They only care about their dividends. The bumper price they got for their shares after the Ronaldo signing means they are very happy with everything at United right now.

They don't have anything to do with the football shappy. It's the people that run the footballing side that need to be kicked up the backside.

I'm sure they are not "very happy" with the situation. But they will have taken advice and they will be letting their people in charge do their job.

Angel, they have no interest in the club and are detached from it.

If the club is run poorly because they don't hire the right people to run the club then whose fault is that? Where does the buck stop?

Fair point re our new assets not being deployed. Strange set up from the financials:

Fred - cost £50m - Non league level player at times but the heart of our midfield

Van de Beek - cost £40m - Never given a chance despite easily being way ahead of the likes of Fred on paper (different positions accepted)

Sancho - cost £73m - Played handful of times despite being 'the next boy wonder'

Somebody make it make sense!

As for £89m Pogba - Fergie has clearly been proved right on that one.

I would go as far as saying for first 11 Chelsea would be nowhere near us, take into account their loan system and we are by far and large the highest wages.

We keep saying the Glazer's know nothing about football but they have owned United for 17 years now, they should know something about how to run a club.
You can't own a business for that long and total rely on other people, its poor business practice at best and neglect at worst.

Shappy, how do you know that in all fairness?

Angel, it's pretty obvious the Clive the janitor didn't hire Ed Woodward.

Ed worked on and aided the Glazers leveraged buyout. For his help he was given the top job at the club.

That isn't hiring the best person for a specific role. But putting a mate in charge.

The fact that we have Ed Woodward running the club like a trust fund is entirely the Glazers fault.

The Glazers have rarely visited Old Trafford or even England. Joel Glazer is the only one who has any sort of even semi-regular contact.

Shappy, you're a guessing merchant who hasn't a clue about anything in regards to how the club is run.

It's all opinion, and that's fine but you run it off like fact when it is not.
