Jason Burt: 我认为曼联目前的财政困境是过去十年管理不善和过度支出的结果。俱乐部像摇钱树一样被榨干了,现在到了该承担后果的时候了。虽然拉特克利夫也为此负有部分责任,但他已经非常坦诚地说明了情况。他指出,俱乐部可能在圣诞节前破产,这突显了问题的严重性。然而,真正的问题在于,一家曾经如此赚钱的俱乐部怎么会陷入如此窘迫的境地?这反映了之前管理层严重的失误。 此外,曼联的一些决定,例如将一些高薪球员租借出去,也加剧了球队的困境。拉特克利夫必须支持阿莫林教练,给他足够的时间和资源来改善球队状况。但他公开批评一些球员薪水过高且表现不佳,这可能会给球队带来负面影响。曼联需要想办法处理那些合同过高,且不被球队需要的球员,但这并非易事。 Miguel Delaney: 拉特克利夫关于曼联财政状况的声明,使他之前不受欢迎的决定更容易被接受。格雷泽家族对曼联的收购方式及其造成的债务问题,是曼联目前财政困境的关键原因之一。格雷泽家族的收购方式是具有争议性的,并且这种收购方式在其他联赛中是被限制的。拉特克利夫公开批评球员,这暗示了阿莫林教练可以更自由地做出改变。曼联似乎将本赛季视为重建的年份,他们已经明确表示,目前的阵容并非球队的未来。 Jim Ratcliffe: (根据报道总结) 我继承了一家负债累累的俱乐部,俱乐部可能在圣诞节前破产。一些球员薪水过高,表现却不够好,例如桑乔和安东尼。我必须支持阿莫林教练,尽管他面临着许多挑战。我的目标是在三年内让曼联成为世界上最赚钱的俱乐部。
