The current situation at Man United, Chelsea and Arsenal really illustrates how important it is that there's a cohesive approach to squad planning that matches the approach of the manager in question.
That is of course difficult to establish if you switch managers every 6-18 months, a situation in which the longer tenured executive staff will by default gain far too much influence over player recruitment and retention given their lack of expertise. Man United have looked like they've been steered by the same hand of mediocrity ever since Ferguson left..and they're on their 4th manager since then. The rot with them is almost certainly at a suite level above the manager.
