Yes please! (speaking purely as a Liverpool fan.
)
Man Utd during the Woodward era have not been especially savvy in the transfer market, so in terms of
money paid for players maybe the squad is overrated, but it's still a hugely talented group of players, even if (again, under Woodward primarily) the club has suffered from a somewhat incoherent transfer strategy.
As I've said before, my take is that OGS is a good manager but probably not good enough for Man Utd's ambitions. He has indeed kept the club
headed in the right direction, but I question his ability to actually get them to that desired destination. He is not on the same level as Klopp, Guardiola, Ancelotti, Tuchel, Benitez, Bielsa. He's still a 'young' manager of course, but he's in one of the most demanding of jobs, one that would tax even the most experienced and skilled manager.
It's hard to entirely disentangle OGS's approach from the tools Woodward has given him, but overall I still think Man Utd are too reactive, not agile enough in changing tack during matches, and the squad is too much a collection of (admittedly generally good to excellent) parts rather than a fully coherent whole (both in composition and employment, which maybe splits the blame fairly evenly between Woodward and OGS). I don't think Man Utd would necessarily do worse under, for example, (*controversy Klaxon*) Sean Dyche...but big clubs have particular expectations and demands and OGS, for all his inexperience, has the magic stamp of 'Man Utd club legend' on him, which does have some currency with supporters, and he comports himself well. As a parallel case, Lampard was clearly not good enough at Chelsea, but many fans were still angry to see him go - right up to the point Tuchel delivered a Big Cup.
And re: Rashford, I've never seen anything to suggest that his activism has the slightest negative effect on his game.
Leciester are a really good club, not pushovers by any stretch. Could be a quite a good match.
