Manchester United: Ownership Under Review

There has been a lot of hype during the Manchester United games lately. You might have noticed the crowd of green and gold. These are the colors of anti-glazer united supporters. The Glazer family owns United, as well as the American Football Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Well it seems that these fans might get what they want because the Glazer family has been in contact with the royal family of Qatar.

Now what does this mean for United? Either they will become an even higher skilled team or, a team filled with superstars but no coordination, much like their rivals Manchester City or even Real Madrid. The only difference with Madrid is that they have been a team with unlimited amounts of money for a while now. This could either make or break United right now. Chelsea hasn't been at the top of their game lately, Arsenal’s young gunners are forming into a high skilled team, Manchester City is on and off, Liverpool have been struggling this season, Tottenham and New Castle are developing and Manchester United are undefeated in the premier league, but can't afford to break down now.

In my opinion, if the sale of the club does end up happening, the one way the club will stay as a contender for the title for the next few years is if Sir Alex Ferguson continues his role as manager and doesn’t forget about the basics of the club. If they look to get a new manager, it could be deadly for the club. Most likely, the new manager would shop the market for every expensive player but the team would lack composure. If Sir Alex remains the manager, he could buy new players of a high skill level but he will also know how to make an unbeatable formation. Basically, United could become a team like Barcelona, where there is a high skill level, but the team works together, or a team like Real Madrid where each player is looking for individual stats.

What are your opinions? Should the Glazer family sell, or keep ownership?

  1. The problem is the collosal debt have you lived on another planet the last 5 years? shithead Glazer has got nothing to do with this club winning trophies as he`s never been here.He`s just bought the club for his little brat sons who have no interest but being big nobs in business.We would`ve won those trophies if he hadn`t got his mucky hands on MUFC.Glazer has done nothing other than actually stop some fans coming because of ticket price hikes,DEATH TO GLAZER.

  2. @fooothammer83,
    I never said glazer made MUFC win. I said it was fergusun who picked the right players and formations. I actually hate glazer as well for selling Ronaldo back in 2009 and many other reasons. The glazer family is all about money. The only thing I was saying that would be a problem was that with a new owner they might try a new manager which most likely wouldn't be good with all of that money available.
