Former Manchester United player and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has lauded Sir Jim Ratcliffe and INEOS for their transformative impact on the Premier League club, describing it as ‘staggering.’ Ratcliffe’s imminent 25 percent stake in Manchester United, awaiting final approval from the Football Association, has brought about significant changes, according to Neville.

The approval of the deal is expected next week, marking Ratcliffe and INEOS’ official entry into football operations at the club. Their ambitious plans include turning Old Trafford into the ‘Wembley of the North.’

The impact of this competition on the training ground has translated into enhanced match-day performances, with Manchester United winning seven of their nine games following Ratcliffe’s association with the club. Neville’s remarks came after Manchester United secured a 2-1 victory against Luton Town, with Rasmus Hojlund scoring a brace in the first 10 minutes of the fixture on Sunday.

The Sky Sports pundit emphasized the disruption in the boardroom as a key factor in creating a ‘complete new energy‘ within the club. He discussed the long-standing need for football expertise in executive roles and applauded the changes initiated by Ratcliffe and INEOS.

Reflecting on the impact of the Glazers’ loyalty to certain individuals over the past decade, Neville criticized the absence of serious football professionals operating the club. He likened the situation to playing Football Manager, citing a lack of coherent decision-making and recruitment strategy.

This isn’t the first time Neville has praised Ratcliffe’s involvement at Manchester United. He previously acknowledged the importance of having individuals in roles that align with their expertise. Neville sees Ratcliffe’s entry as a step in the right direction, bringing disruption and interference with the mediocrity witnessed over the past decade.

Ratcliffe’s vision for Manchester United focuses on changing the culture, with an emphasis on recruiting players who fit into a longer-term plan for success. The impending appointment of Dan Ashworth as sporting director is seen as part of this strategic overhaul, signaling a positive direction under Ratcliffe and INEOS’ leadership.
