They broke the world record for a CB, held onto their best player despite an onslaught of tapping up from Real Madrid, got rid of who Ole wanted out, and brought in some excellent young signings. They could have done with a No. 10 but Dybala's image rights holder refused to sell up, Eriksen elected to run down his deal and leave on a Bosman, and they rightly refused to be held to ransom for 80m for Bruno. They didn't address each and every area of need but if Levy had given Poch anywhere near the level of backing over the past three years that Ole was given this summer we'd be in a completely different situation.Not if you look at what they have done since Fergie left. They all said that OGS was going to get all the transfers he needed etc. Woodward is no better than Levy when it comes to taking risk solely for footballing results and not thinking of the financial aspect.
