Sir Jim Ratcliffe has said that Manchester United are no longer an “elite” club after becoming “mediocre” and believes he faces a big task to address the “inertia” at Old Trafford.
The United co-owner, who has left most fans unhappy since he paid £1.3bn to take a 27.7 percent stake in the club, has defended his decision to raise ticket prices and criticised the “poor” recruitment at the club before he came in and took charge of football operations by claiming the club’s data analysis department is stuck in the last century.
