They\u2019ve gone from a title-winning side under Roberto Mancini and Manuel Pellegrini to a team so good they defy conventional wisdom.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Their success hasn\u2019t just come from Guardiola though, it\u2019s come from the support he was given to deploy a clear vision and reach the target the club set for him. Ironically, that\u2019s what United need, to think a bit more like City.<\/p>\n<p>But the idea that Ratcliffe will be some kind of saviour riding in to deliver everything supporters have been crying out for is for the birds, as is the idea he is the financial light to the Glazers dark.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s see if the money he buys the shares with is actually from his own pocket and if it finds its way into United\u2019s coffers rather than the hands of the existing shareholders \u2013 predominately the Glazers \u2013 with this amazing act of philanthropy.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78380739-12805607-Pep_Guardiola_has_made_Man_City_the_dominant_force_in_European_f-a-1_1701277875305.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pep Guardiola has made Man City the dominant force in European football in recent years<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78380741-12805607-Erik_ten_Hag_s_Man_United_are_trailing_in_their_wake_as_the_club-a-2_1701277875525.jpg\" height=\"447\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Erik ten Hag&#8217;s Man United are trailing in their wake, as the club have been for the past decade<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78381015-12805607-Sir_Jim_Ratcliffe_has_been_hailed_as_their_potential_saviour_but-a-3_1701277875795.jpg\" height=\"414\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Sir Jim Ratcliffe has been hailed as their potential saviour, but that talk is for the birds<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>What he will bring is a fresh set of eyes and he could bring some much-needed coherency to the decision-making process of buying and selling players and employing managers.<\/p>\n<p>But Ratcliffe won\u2019t solve all of United\u2019s problems and supporters should be careful what kind of dreams they want to have because they could end up on Elm Street.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s not forget the so-called curse of Ineos. Through that multi-billion pound business, Ratcliffe has his fingers in many sporting pies \u2013 and little in the way of success to show for it.<\/p>\n<p>From motor racing and sailing through to cycling, football and rugby, everything Ineos has touched has lacked the key ingredient United fans crave \u2013 successful outcomes.<\/p>\n<p>There are some easy wins to be had though. If I was in Ratcliffe\u2019s position the first thing I\u2019d do would be to fix the communication channel between the ownership and its vociferous fans. Demonstrate a cohesive strategy so United look like a progressive club again rather than a regressive one they have appeared to be for too long.<\/p>\n<p>The crumbling stadium and tired training ground can also be invested in \u2013 those are easy wins that shut down arguments that have been \u2018gimmes\u2019 to dissenting fans. It\u2019s perplexing that the Glazers haven\u2019t shown any inclination to do any of that. Address those issues and take those arguments off the table.<\/p>\n<p>Fixing Old Trafford and upgrading Carrington are not going to take them back to the top though. It\u2019s feeble-minded to think your training ground needs every conceivable bell and whistle to produce a winning team.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78381017-12805607-Mail_Sport_columnist_Simon_Jordan_pictured_points_out_Ratcliffe_-a-4_1701277875875.jpg\" height=\"389\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mail Sport columnist Simon Jordan (pictured) points out that Ratcliffe&#8217;s Ineos have not had much success in the sporting world<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78108175-12805607-Ratcliffe_can_start_to_win_fans_over_by_fixing_Old_Trafford_The_-a-6_1701277875989.jpg\" height=\"428\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Ratcliffe can start to win fans over by fixing Old Trafford. The iconic stadium has been mocked for its leaky roof (pictured) in recent years<\/p>\n<p>Look at Tottenham. Their training ground has the admiration of all but hasn\u2019t helped them win anything. But these simple steps can easily be put into motion so it feels like you\u2019re doing something, changing something.<\/p>\n<p>Look at the structure of the football operation and ask if you\u2019re doing everything you could do. Look around and investigate every aspect of where improvements can be made. United are a blue-chip football club but their mindset has not operated that way for too long.<\/p>\n<p>The culture of the club hasn\u2019t pivoted and moved with the times, in fact it\u2019s regressed. In the early years of the Premier League they had low-hanging fruit, a brilliant manager, the most economic might and momentum. But those advantages have gone now. The game has changed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>There are other people at the table now who have just as much money so you need a change of thinking, a change of strategy to harness the uniqueness of Manchester United. They must go back to having the best in class and out-of-the-box thinking rather than relying on the fact they are Manchester United. That will only get you so far.<\/p>\n<p>The suggestion is that Dave Brailsford, he of the marginal gains theory, will be brought in to sit on top of the football structure. Well, translation of excellence from other sports doesn\u2019t always work.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78381311-12805607-The_culture_at_United_has_not_moved_with_the_times_under_the_Gla-a-5_1701277875980.jpg\" height=\"439\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The culture at United has not moved with the times under the Glazers since they took charge<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78381433-12805607-Dave_Brailsford_has_had_huge_success_in_cycling_but_the_translat-a-7_1701277876287.jpg\" height=\"361\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Dave Brailsford has had huge success in cycling, but the translation of excellence from other sports doesn&#8217;t always work<\/p>\n<p>Football is cyclical. United won\u2019t always be in this current situation of one step forward, two steps back, just like City won\u2019t always be a winning machine.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a need to make United fit for purpose again and the introduction of Ratcliffe can be a lightning rod and his presence will enhance the club. He could start setting leadership patterns, cultures of accountability and reintroducing standards in this flagging behemoth of a club. He will certainly put different people into key components of the business to change the direction of travel.<\/p>\n<p>United need to take a long look at themselves and lose their blinkers and expectations. I\u2019m not suggesting they accept they\u2019re not top of the food chain anymore because what you conceptualise in your mind and what you project is ultimately what you end up with. But they\u2019ve got to get back to certain basics and they\u2019ve got to get better people in better positions.<\/p>\n<p>If the core proposition is a successful team then you have to focus on it properly and have a clear vision about what it is you\u2019re trying to achieve. Saying you want to do something but not having the principles and disciplines and people behind you to execute it are two very different things. United have fallen short of that.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019d assume a bit more control over why money is being spent, where it\u2019s being spent and what it\u2019s being spent on. I\u2019d ensure United have the best possible team and I\u2019d be making sure the manager has everything he really requires.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78380329-12805607-Erik_ten_Hag_still_has_plenty_of_doubters_but_could_grow_with_a_-a-8_1701277876342.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Erik ten Hag still has plenty of doubters, but could grow with a better structure around him<\/p>\n<p>I am not a subscriber to the belief Erik Ten Hag has ever been the solution to the problem though. From the get-go he didn\u2019t exhibit an outlook or disposition required for the scale and size of United, but with better structures he may grow and prove me wrong.<\/p>\n<p>When City hired Guardiola, they had a target. What is United\u2019s target? What are they trying to achieve? There seems be no consistency and too much background noise. They need to solidify the message and re-enhance in the minds of supporters what that message is as it seems to have been lost.<\/p>\n<p>What is it United should want? The best in class in dugout! Best in class in stadium! Best youth development or stadium or training ground! They don\u2019t have any of those things right now. But they should, there\u2019s no excuse not to, and if Ratcliffe can re-align the club\u2019s thinking from top to bottom, they might just have a chance of making up the lost ground.<\/p>\n<p>Which, with the greatest irony of all, will give the Glazers the biggest benefit in the end. Imagine how much their majority ownership of United will be worth if the club gets it right on the pitch. It\u2019s a trade-off I suspect United fans might just have to accept.<\/p>\n<h2>Forest have to keep faith with Cooper\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>If the wheels are coming off it\u2019s your responsibility as an owner to make a decision on the manager\u2019s future but that is not the case at Nottingham Forest right now.<\/p>\n<p>It would be unwise and unfair to pull the trigger on Steve Cooper and would be an unnecessary reaction to a few disappointing results.<\/p>\n<p>Forest are building a good side there under a decent manager who has the fans fully behind him.<\/p>\n<p>The owner, Evangelos Marinakis, who has spent money like a drunken sailor needs to temper his ambitions against the reality of building solid foundations. That is what Forest need after so many years out of the Premier League and there\u2019s nothing to indicate those foundations aren\u2019t being built sustainably under Cooper.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78381533-12805607-Steve_Cooper_is_under_pressure_at_Nottingham_Forest_but_the_club-a-9_1701277876506.jpg\" height=\"425\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Steve Cooper is under pressure at Nottingham Forest, but the club should stand by him<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/11\/29\/17\/78381633-12805607-Forest_owner_Evangelos_Marinakis_pictured_needs_to_temper_his_am-a-10_1701277876655.jpg\" height=\"439\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis (pictured) needs to temper his ambitions so the club can build a solid foundation in the Premier League<\/p>\n<p>He is a progressive coach and someone the FA could look to one day as a potential England manager.
