Don’t like to disagree without adding a reason as to why, and I recognise what follows is highlighting a lot of the “negatives”
So as I see this, Levy / ENIC took over the forth most successful club in English football history. In 22 years they have seen tangible success once. They have gone close a couple more times.
In that period of time they have gone through more than 10 first team coaches. Various directors of football and hundreds of players. They have sold three of their biggest assets in that period setting the team back years when doing so. They once sold Keane and Berbatov in a single window. Madness. Sold Bale and replaced him with much that was questionable.
They hit gold with a coaching team and then managed to kill the golden goose with baffling decisions. Selling Dembele and replacing him with ?? Window after window failing to buy a striker. Jose for the sake of Amazon. Ridiculous.
The stadium was ultimately a success, but for a good 5 years it was a total farce. And it was how many millions over budget ?
On the more positive, they have done a lot for the local community in recent years, they are majorly promoting the club in evolving markets and they do seem very much to be learning lessons, so maybe
we will ultimately find the good outweighs the disappointment.
....To me.
