The interview shows how the problems started. We were uniquely run, and it worked with 2 geniuses together steering the ship. When those two left, the model didn't seem set up to work in the modern world without them, and then poor appointments and a model based upon off the field success more than what happens off it, highlighted the flaws in the model, which was perfect if run by certain people I.e. Sir Alex and David Gill because they were special.

@@tris421 Yeah. I’d add Robin van Persie as a big money signing, but even that wasn’t huge money, in all honesty. And the last two title winning sides we had were pretty threadbare, with the likes of Darren Fletcher, Park Ji Sung, Danny Welbeck, Phil Jones, Shinji Kagawa etc. being vital players in the squad, Paul Scholes coming out of retirement etc. We were running on fumes even then and it was largely through SAF’s managerial genius that we were still a force.
