Making 37-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo the highest-paid player in the Premier League? Where do we sign?! Spending more than £100million for the sixth time in eight years? Say no more! Having a higher wage budget for goalkeepers alone than most clubs spend on their entire squad? Well, we need options!
But spending a mere £15million to get a top-quality manager in charge midway through the season? Well, that's where we draw the line! We're not made of money you know!
Manchester United are far from the only club that has this bizarre disposition on where they will spend untold amounts of cash to assemble remarkable squads compared to appointing managers. But clutching their purse strings when it comes to hiring coaches is odd.
