The plan
It’s unlikely anyone will say it out loud even if they believe it, but consolidation. Like their male counterparts, Manchester United are hampered by the Glazers’ avaricious ownership and as such, chances are they will always be chasing better-funded rivals. No team can expect to win the big pots after first losing a player as brilliant as Lauren James, who departed in 2021, then two more of similar quality in Ona Batlle and Alessia Russo, who left this summer.
