Manchester United, which even failed the FA Cup due to Ferguson, and Ferguson, who passed the legendary Manchester United slump in a mess

Manchester United's crisis continues. Manchester United failed to advance to the quarterfinals on the 3rd (Korea time) when it lost 3-4 in a penalty shootout after drawing 1-1 with Fulham in the fifth round of the FA Cup (the round of 16) at Old Trafford in Manchester, England. Manchester United's only way to play in the European club competition next season is to win the Europa League, which is actually currently in the round of 16.
Manchester United's slump is serious. Currently, he is in a position to worry about relegation to 14th place. The slump continued this season, bringing in coach Erik ten Haach and young leader Huven Amorim, who bombed Portugal, but the slump never ends. He transformed into an Amorim system in November last year, but has already lost 10 times in 24 games. Six of them have collapsed at Old Trafford.
It has already been over 10 years since Manchester United won the championship. The last season was the 2012-2013 season led by Alex Ferguson. Manchester United poured in money after Ferguson's retirement, but it seems to go down every season, let alone win. It is a successful situation, beating only the European Champions League ticket. The situation did not change even if the masters were brought in one after another. Rather, it is a situation where financial difficulties overlap with lax management.

Manchester United's continued sluggishness led to criticism of Ferguson. BBC commentator Gary Lineker wrote "Look at Liverpool now. There is a new manager, Arne Slot, but he is performing well without wavering"This is proof that his predecessor Jurgen Klopp handed over the club in good condition. The structure is very solid.' On the other hand, Ferguson left Manchester United at the time of his departure. Won the league that season, but not the best team coldly, and many great players were about to retire. We couldn't produce any prospects like we used to"I think that's when the problem started."
However, many fans do not seem to agree with Lineker's remarks. Ten years have already passed, but the same problem is still being pointed out because it means that Manchester United leaders have been repeating the same mistake for more than a decade.
