Your "rant" has always been about Borinho and the pain his sacking caused you as a groupie competing for his attention with Okokoborinko.

That's why Ole is a legend and Borinho is now a pundit.

Some clubs are "special" in that regardless of who manages them or which players play for them, they have a footballing identity and style that survives coach and player turnover. Examples include: Barcelona, Ajax, Manchester United, Juventus.

Instead of letting the coach pick the team's playing style, they demand that the coach adapt and make only incremental improvements to an established playing style that is in the club's DNA. Man Utd suffered after Ferguson because they hired and allowed managers to modify the club's DNA with radical changes in formation, tactics, and personnel.
Lest we forget, it was LVG who switched to a back 3, converted Young to a FB, and played Lingard as a RWB. Jose tried to play an attritional "win every game 1-0" style that was alien to the club.

Woodward and the Glazers should henceforth appoint a DOF who is in charge of player recruitment, and the coaches and manager should be employed with a particular playing philosophy in mind (which will survive a change of manager). The good news is that the club now has a coaching team (down to youth team level) staffed by people who were raised in that Man Utd style (OGS, Phelan, Carrick, Butt etc, along with players who came through the academy like Lingard, Rashford, Pogba, McTominay, Pereira, Tuanzebe, Fosu-Mensah).
