Conclusion
There are many factors as one can see causing United's current mess.
But there could be specific people who could solve them:
Possibly somebody who is respected for speaking well, and being in the media, and has respect in the game in many quarters, could be an effective director of football.
It could even be a club legend, such as:
These are all club legends and are a few of many choices. It may not have to be a United legend, but somebody unrelated to the club.
My team is Arsenal, and I feel we've seen the experience United has had post-Sir Alex, and the club is looking to correct its own structure. Club CEO Ivan Gazidis said that the club, in May 2017, needed "catalyst for change". This was roundly mocked in the early 17/18 season, but the appointments of Mislintat, Sanhelli, the moving on of Wenger, and the appointment of Emery, show a desire to change.
United needs similar, for sure. And who knows - if both clubs can change successfully, it may be pretty much a repeat of the epic battles of yesteryear. Even as a non-United fan, Arsenal and Man United share a lot of similarities, in both playing traditions, demands for success, trophy wins, and contributions to English football both on and off the pitch.
