The only difference is SOD got his chance in the Championship and a few quid to helpBuild . DF would have to have build a side first, as the board wouldn’t want let wages explode like before . DF left because his team was 2 or 3 years away from being sustainable and he wanted the money now.
SO'D was all about giving players freedom and more responsibility. He would repeat that constantly in interviews. Fergie gives me the opposite impression.

Put Wellens Stock Green and Coppinger at a younger age as they were then we would have challenged for the top two. The funds Sean had at that time according to the two owners was unsustainable therefore as poster said above DF had to try and build a side capable of challenging for top six and above.

Him shipping Wellens out at the start of his tenure suggests not. If DF had those players, would he have given them the freedom to do what they wanted as SO'D did, or would he have shoved them at wingback?
The biggest difference. Look at the football been payed for the last 2 and a bit season compare that to sods football.
