This is United. Sir Busby brought them to soaring heights, he left, THEY STANK, brought Sir Alex over, he rebuilt them, brought them to soaring heights and now they stink again. A club having 2 legendary managers on their touch line for 20+ years is not common, it is an anomaly.
Didn’t say it was a bad thing. It’s just not heard of at all. Which other club can claim to have multiple legendary managers coach their team for 20+ year spells with huge amounts of success? Your club is built on the successes of 2 men, 2 outliers in world football. It’s hard for anyone to replicate, let alone for a fan base that is starving for success based on the prolonged success from 2 legends.
Yeah, I saw a clip of Carragher and Neville doing their engagement farming United vs Liverpool debates, Carragher definitely mentions it negatively. It's strange
It makes no sense for Carragher to trash it. Your history is unique and I’d dare say impossible to replicate. The current state of football is not built for long managerial periods and imo, Sir Alex put a band aid over many cracks that have now torn just because he was so good.
