Key Highlights
- The head coach became increasingly open that something was amiss after chats with Jason Wilcox.
- The director of football has not covered himself in glory at the club, but he and the chief executive, Omar Berrada, remain while another head coach departs.
- Conversations with potential replacements need to centre on everyone being on the same page.
- There were disagreements over tactics and recruitment, which created tension Old Trafford could ill afford.
- Nothing will be fixed overnight, meaning the incoming coach needs explicit guidelines on what is required and must offer a clear path on how tactics and style will meet expectations.
