MUFC Owners Must Stop Chasing Money And Focus On Trophies – Giuseppe Rossi

Sir Jim Ratcliffe, INEOS and the Glazers must stop chasing money at Manchester United and focus on winning trophies, Giuseppe Rossi has said. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, those behind the scenes at Old Trafford need to get their priorities in order because Sir Jim and the Glazers should be concentrating on making MUFC the biggest club trophy-wise, not revenue-wise.

Rossi added that he still believes Manchester United is the best club in the world despite its poor years since SAF retired.

His words, “That’s interesting. You know, do the owners of Manchester United care about being the biggest trophy-wise, title-wise, or the biggest revenue-wise?

There’s two different ways of looking at it. For people who care about football, it’s all about the titles, it’s all about winning, it’s all about being the best. Football has changed. It’s all about the dollar signs outside of football first. And, you know, they are the top dog. They’re still the top dog, I think, right? In global football, if not, they’re second to Real Madrid or Barcelona or whatever.

So what do they care about the most? The fans, they care about the titles. I care about the titles. I’m sure the players care about the titles, and rightfully so. It should be about that. And we shall see. We shall see if that’s something that the front office is going to transmit to these players and how we want to get back to winning titles instead of being the highest revenue-generating team in the world.

I think they still are. I think people still dream about playing for Man United. It is the biggest club in the world. So whenever there’s that chance, I feel like they’re able to attract.

Manchester United, I feel like, is always a destination for the best players, for the young players. It’s still the best club in the world. They just need to get back on track when it comes to results.

This year, they’re doing a great job with Carrick, filling in for [Ruben] Amorim and being able to find an identity again, being able to find the Manchester United way. People are always talking about certain goals that have been scored that look like the old way of playing in the Fergie days. And once you find that identity, I feel like you can build upon it.

And this year, they have to be realistic that their goal is to find European football again, Champions League football again. And I think they’re on a good path of doing so. And yeah, the next year, they’re able to build something, have continuity, hopefully with Carrick and get back to winning. They certainly appear to be on the right path again, United.”

WOW.

Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.

Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.

Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.

The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
