Why is it that Man United keep spending, but their squad is still thin?
I wrote about Man United’s squad depth before the FA Cup final last year, but one whole window later, it feels like they’ve only taken baby steps toward building a team that’s strong enough to contend.
Japan won the World Cup in 2011, and what should have been an era of excellence was squandered by bad coaching and complacency. Now, 12 years later, they appear poised to win it all again.
