Sir Jim Ratcliffe may have already hinted at what Man United fans can expect after he completed his 25 per cent purchase of the club, having outlined how he would run a football club when he attempted to buy Chelsea last year.
On Christmas Eve, Man United confirmed the billionaire Ineos owner had secured a stake in the Red Devils after sealing a deal with the Glazer family.
The deal will see Ratcliffe take control of football operations at Old Trafford.
'As a local boy and a lifelong supporter, I am very pleased that we have been able to agree a deal with the Manchester United Board that delegates us management responsibility of the football operations of the Club,' Ratcliffe said.
