Jim Radcliffe is considered Manchester United’s saviour this season due to his involvement in bringing successful individuals into the club, the most notable being David Brailsford. Dave Brailsford is known for his work in cycling with Team Ineos and as the head of the cycling division for England in the Olympics. His philosophy of marginal gains—improving by 1% in various aspects to achieve overall significant progress—could be influential in Manchester United’s improvement.
Despite not being directly involved in football coaching, Brailsford’s techniques and history of success in sports suggest potential for positive change at Manchester United. There’s a mention of past controversies in sports regarding the use of inhalers, which were legal but questioned in their ethics, hinting that some sports success might come from such marginal gains.
The transfer news includes Timo Werner signing for Tottenham while snubbing Manchester United, reflecting on the club’s current appeal to players. Spanish side Villarreal is interested in winger Facundo Pellistri, and Fenerbahce is keen on forward Anthony Martial. Eric Ten Hag is looking to sell certain players to free up funds for future signings, with the possibility of bringing in Eric Maxime Choupo-Moting as a replacement.
Defensive consideration revolves around keeping Raphael Varane and potentially bringing in Jean-Clair Todibo to strengthen the team’s defense. Additionally, Mary Earps, an England goalkeeper, is being pursued by Paris Saint-Germain.
