Wonder why that is It's down to Ferguson's experience that we are still in the title race. Well of course there should be more to come: but to suggest that we are gonna be as good as we were a couple years ago is absolutely ludicrous We were an excellent side, with an excellent coaching staff and manager capable of domintaing football. Now we are a good side with good coaching staff but thankfully we've still got an excellent manager who's capable of winning us the title. |

He got slated for no end product which was very harsh for a 18 year old kid in a new country etc, but he was just unbelievable to watch. |

To be kicked so often and just get back up and run at them again - brilliant. He was obviously going to be a huge star yet you still had some arseholes moaning. Some people are just Howard Wilkinson, they want a team of safe , reliable utility players who play four yard passes, 'tackle back' and don't cause them too much stress by taking risks. |

He was just one of those players that comes along once in a generation who just seems to spread an aura of invincibility throughout the club. Cantona was another one like that.
Obviously we lost games when Ronnie played, and obviously he had bad games where he didn't perform, but there just seemed to be such a ridiculous belief that we'd beat anyone whenever he played. Going to places like The Emirates, Anfield, Stamford Bridge, Stadio Olimpico and even the Nou Camp didn't seem daunting at all with him in the side. Teams used to absolutely shit it against us. That's completely gone now and we don't raise that fear factor anymore. Can you imagine £#%&!ing Basel beating us if we had Ronnie in the side ffs? I don't think he'll ever come back, as he probably sees his United/England chapter closed and he'll go to Italy or Portugal after he's bored at Madrid. I still think he believes he made a mistake by leaving United so early though. Everything was set up for him here, but he seemed to have a 'grass is greener' complex going on with Spain, and now he's there he's realised it's not the dream he thought it would be with the boo boy #@&%!s and lack of silverware. Oh well, should have known better. |

I think Barca will get their traditional win in the Clasico and Madrid will drop more points elsewhere. They have an inferiority complex with Barca and I think they'll crack under the pressure with Barca breathing down their necks come April/May. If he wins the title this season then fair play, but I can't see them dominating La Liga like United dominated England when he was here. They are light years behind Barca. Put simply, his trophy haul would have been bigger if he had stayed at United IMO, that counts for both team trophies and personal awards which seem to mean so much to him. |
