Manchester United legend Gary Neville has revealed why Manchester United is struggling since Sir Alex Ferguson left the club.
Sir Alex Ferguson left a vaccum at Manchester United that none of his successors have been able to fill. The legendary Scottish manager, 81, won 13 Premier League titles during his iconic 27-year stint at Old Trafford.
He left in 2013 after clinching his final league title with the club. United have since hired six hands before current boss Erik ten Hag and it has been a tale of lost hopes and disappointments over a decade now.
The Red Devils have not won the league since Fergie’s exit, with David Moyes, Louis van Gaal, Jose Mourinho and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer all failing to do so.
Interim boss Ralf Rangnick also endured a difficult five-month spell in charge.
Man Utd’s trophy haul since the Ferguson years stands at just one FA Cup, two League Cups and the Europa League.
Neville, an eight-time Premier League winner and part of the 1999 Treble team under Ferguson, does not believe the managers are to blame for the drop off.
And he has highlighted a trio of more critical reasons for the club’s decline.
During a Twitter Q&A, the former England right-back was asked who the best manager of the post-Ferguson era has been.
To which he replied: “All very good managers but hampered by the ownership, (there’s a) lack of good leadership below the owners and poor recruitment.”
Gary Neville has been critical of the Glazers handling of Manchester United – a sentiment that has been shared by Manchester United fans.
