Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand has warned his former club they should be very careful when picking between Jose Mourinho and Ryan Giggs to be their next manager―or risk a lengthy title drought similar to Liverpool's. The former centre-back thinks the decision on Louis van Gaal's replacement is “huge,” and he fears the wrong choice could have dire consequences, per MailOnline's Jack Gaughan:
"I think if they bring someone else in, it is a huge decision because if this doesn’t go right, it could be a long cycle.
We don’t want to be a repeat of what Liverpool have gone through. Manchester United don’t want that long time in the wilderness of not really winning or being successful and not challenging for titles.
That can’t afford to happen at Man United. The problem they’ve got now is who they choose.
Are they going to go for someone who has had success, who knows how to manage teams like Jose Mourinho, or will they go with someone who is already in the house like Ryan Giggs?
That’s the problem they have got and the questions that have to be asked. If I knew the answer to that question, I would be the CEO." (bleacherreport)
