Simon Jordan suggests FA Cup win might’ve been free get ‘out of jail’ card for Man United
This season would’ve been a total disaster for Manchester United if they hadn’t ended up winning the FA Cup finals against Man City. Thanks to their stellar performance that night the team has something to show for their season.
However, Simon Jordan believes the time might’ve ‘got out of jail’ thanks to their FA Cup win. Let’s have a look at what the pundit had to say while speaking about the club on Talksport.
“Man United are 11 years into their cycle, we don’t know what they are, where they’re going”
“They get out of jail in people’s minds because the won a league cup and an FA Cup”
Simon Jordan’s comments reveal a lot of truth. Man United have actually shown no semblance of a plan during the last decade. The team keeps hiring managers and keeps signing expensive players in the hopes of winning titles.
However, as far as rebuilding goes, it has only been downhill ever since Sir Alex Ferguson left Old Trafford. People would’ve crucified Erik ten Hag because of what kind of performance his team put up this season.
However, they somehow rallied and won the FA Cup. That single trophy which is not even a priority for the Red Devils has led to all of the team’s shortcomings being somewhat forgotten. Man United needs to be more accountable for its failures.
