    For many decades, Manchester United have towered over the English Premier League as one of the most successful and prestigious sporting institutions in the world. Boasting the most topflight titles in British history, they have held the status of a powerhouse for over half a century since the days of The Busby Babes and The Holy Trinity. However, across the last decade, the mighty Mancunians have endured a mighty downfall from which they haven’t managed to recover, and if anything, it seems to be getting worse! Once the dominant force in England forever in the running for the title, Manchester United have now become the laughing stock of the league, but how did it happen?

    They haven't used their scouts as well as they should have over the past decade! Once they could find rare talent and make them even better, now they just go for the biggest names as a quick fix to get back to where they were and so the stock price increases for the Glazers!
    Also you should have mentioned David Gill leaving at the same time as his work with transfer negotiations was vital to United's successful transfer policy during the 2000s and early 2010s!

      When I see the state-of-the-art training facilities and the worldwide network of satellite clubs that serve to make Manchester City the global powerhouse that it has become, I can't help but wonder if your closing statement, albeit a tad synical, hits the nail right on the head. Perhaps a wealthy middle eastern consortium taking charge is the only way to regain some of the lost glory. Is money the sole determinant of long-term success?

While City and Liverpool continue to improve their squad, Manchester United are stuck in an endless cycle of mediocrity and Maguire being captain is the epitome of Manchester United right now.

    United need a good director of football that is solely responsible for the transfer dealings, or a Klopp/Pep-esque gaffer that is trustworthy with buying the right players. Because I don't care who the manager or owners are (the owner argument is an easy excuse and one I find confusing) if you don't buy the right players and sell the wrong ones that don't fit at the club consistently, they'll continue this fall. Back to the owner issue, if you were an owner, and the "football people" at the club have consistently pissed away loads money, would you be inclined to just keep throwing money at the situation? No.
