The current state of Manchester United's data analysis: Amid various criticisms, Ratcliffe pointed out that the club is lagging in this aspect. Despite significant spending on data, improvement is needed. The potential appointment of Michael Sansoni from Mercedes could be a game-changer. The club's recruitment has faced issues, with high spending but few successful signings. Meanwhile, teams like Brighton and Brentford show the power of effective data use.

The commitment and potential: Ratcliffe is determined to make better use of the club's financial strength through data, and Sansoni's move could facilitate this transformation.
