SIR JIM RATCLIFFE says he had no choice but to launch a drastic shake-up at Manchester United after the club had "lost its way" in the post-Fergie era.
The Ineos chief took charge of the football side of the business as well as day-to-day operations when he shelled out £1.25billion for a 27.7 percent stake in the club in February.
He has since undertaken an overhaul of the Old Trafford hierarchy and announced plans for major changes at the club -including 250 redundancies - in a bid to restore the Red Devils to the top of the pile.
And Ratcliffe highlights the departure of former boss Sir Alex Ferguson and chief executive David Gill as a trigger for the club's on-field decline.
He said: "You can't put your head in the sand, you have to face facts. It needed a fresh start, so that's what we've done.
"(The club had) clearly lost its way.
