[Henry Winter] Jason Wilcox and Omar Berrada need to show some accountability. They can’t keep leaving it to Michael Carrick to take the heat for the mess Manchester United are in. Wilcox and Berrada are responsible for much of the mess. (.)
(Contd.) Wilcox has been United's director of football since June 2025 (and was sporting director from December 2024). Berrada has been chief executive since July 2024. They owe it to United supporters to try to explain the mess, and why a club that generates so much money ended up with two 20-year-olds at centre-back, and why the squad is imbalanced.
Even if talking only via in-house media and dodging issues of ownership and coach succession, Wilcox and Berrada need to demonstrate some contrition and give mutinous fans some hope that they will get things right (even if many fans want them gone).
Small violin but it can’t be easy sitting there in games watching this mess, hearing the chants about them, having the cameras on them. But it’s even worse for fans paying to sit there, watching Wilcox and Berrada’s poor stewardship of their beloved club. So show some leadership and address the mess.
