To be honest whoever was going to take over the reigns from ferguson would face a hard climb and an impossible act to follow.
It will take Man U years to get that formula back and may never to be honest, it happened with Cloughy when he left Notts Forest and I am not saying that Man U will go down the same road but you cannot expect a long standing successful manager to leave and expect a replacement to walk through the door and all will be as if nothing happened.
I am sure that one or two Man U fans on here will disagree with me but this is a unique situation where the predecessor set the standards and raised the bar for football in the UK and to get rid of his replacement within the first season seems a bit unfair.
