Too late in my humble opinion. Had the chance after they finished third in a tow horse race after getting trashed at yours last game of the season. Everybody could see that squad needed two or three marquee signings to jump to the next level but we are talking about a mediocre club where profit comes before achieving. Ship has sailed, they will always be bridesmaids.
That was possibly their best chance but they weren't the only team to blow it that year really. As for the 5-1, it said as much about us as them - a team of total mercenaries epitomised by Sissoko who when he could be bothered to try and angle for a move would tear Tottenham (and on a couple of occassions Chelsea) a new one then go to the Euros and look a totally different play to the one who'd been lolloping around our pitch for a few years. Levy really did fall hook, line and sinker for that one but it's happened to most at times.
The new Utd ?
