Woodward was never a businessman in the sense of someone who has a successful track record of building a business. He was a corporate debt specialist at JP Morgan with zero general manager experience. The Glazers loved him because he raised the debt that enabled them to buy the club. They then made the surprisingly common mistake of thinking someone who was good at job A would be equally good at a totally different job B requiring entirely different personal attributes and industry knowledge.
Lads every player Liverpool sell is for a high fee beacuse unlike us they don’t give every Tom, Dick and Harry £200k a week just for signing a contract with us. The reason we can’t move on players is because of the obscene contract we give out
We shop at a different super market to Ajax, hence we need to pay more. I agree you can shop a primark and get a top the will do a similar job to one at Harrods. We have had the need for ready made quality now because we didn’t plan when SAF was leaving. Just look at the amount of top names that left at the same time in 2014. Rio, Vidic Giggs Evra, Nani fletcher Anderson Chicharito Zaha.

Daley Blind the ultimate utility player! I still probably wear his last shirt for United.

Loved Tadic as a player. Surprised no top 6 club got a season or 2 out of him whilst at Southampton

Erik Ten Hag will do a good job if he is given the time and a good handful of players... Eriksen would be nice!

Great journalism. I would say we have to give a bit of credit to Ajax ceo and sporting director too.
