NOT VERY NICE 
Man Utd bidder Sir Jim Ratcliffe blasted as Arsenal legend claims Ineos ‘isn’t even capable of running.


EMMANUEL PETIT has slammed Manchester United bidder Sir Jim Ratcliffe as he claimed the billionaire's company Ineos can't "run Nice".

However, his credentials have been called into question by the Arsenal legend.
Petit has claimed that Ratcliffe's company Ineos is not even able to properly run Ligue 1 side Nice.
The retired star has suggested that the club has no "direction" and is in "total disagreement" over certain players' contracts.
He told Foot01: "Since Ineos arrived in Nice, I don’t know who makes decisions.

"Where they want to go, what they want to do with Nice, especially since with MUFC behind us we don’t know if they’re going to pull out overnight.
"That’s what puzzles me actually.
"A group like Ineos, which manages 17,000 people around the world and has a turnover of 80bn, is not even capable of managing a club like Nice and having a clear and defined strategy.
“When you take the best sporting director, Ghisolfi at Lens, who made miracles on the transfer market with three francs and six pennies.

“You see today that he is in total disagreement with what we are trying to impose on him concerning the extension of certain players like [Aaron] Ramsey.


“Who is making the decisions? Mr. Ratcliffe, Mr. Blanc, Mr. Rivčre, whose silence has been deafening for the past few weeks regarding the affairs. He told us in February: You’ll see, we’ll give you the name of the future coach in February.
“It’s the end of May and we still don’t know what’s going to happen at Nice. The market coming up quickly. The direction that INEOS and OGC Nice want to take, I have no idea!”
Meanwhile, rival bidder Sheikh Jassim will reportedly turn his attention to another Premier League club if he fails to acquire Manchester United.
Sheikh Jassim reportedly wants to buy the club in its entirety.
But Ratcliffe is open to securing a majority stake with siblings Joel and Avram retaining a small share.

With the Brit supposedly leading the race, ESPN claim that Sheikh Jassim will attempt to buy Tottenham if he can't get his hands on Man Utd.
