He talks of ‘three-year plan’ to get United back to the topHits out at Newcastle on Ashworth, keeps Greenwood door ajar
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has outlined his plans to put Manchester United back on top of Europe, with a combination of glamorous football and hard-headed realism which he believes can knock Manchester City and Liverpool “off their perch” within three years.
Speaking less than 24 hours after taking control of football operations at Old Trafford, the 71-year-old billionaire admitted that United would have to learn stark lessons from the way their rivals had moved so far ahead in the 11-years since Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure.
