He's the most graceless manager ever to be so successful. Unlike Bob Paisley, a thoroughly decent and modest man who won everything in a much shorter space of time (receiving no gong for doing so because he did not ingratiate himself with some cynical political grandee), or even Brian Clough (who, for all his camp bombast, knew when to lower the mask and just be a gent), this nasty little man has slurred insults at opponents non-stop, bullied officials incessantly and fed off hate to fuel his ambitions. His petty reaction last night was par for the course.
I agree totally Pru, his decision to not talk to the BBC for several years is purely infantile, like a child who decides the rules of the game because it is "his ball". Most other top managers are just as bad, Wenger always blames the ref, and never sees any incidents that Arsenal commit. Also Raffa constantly plays 'mind games'. Fergie has been very successfull, but I would he has mega-millions and has often won this league which is effectively between 3 or 4 teams. |

Can't see why Fergie thought the Raphael sending off was only inspired by the Bayern players and even more astounding that he then complained about their players surrounding the referee!! Pot kettle anyone!

As we now know, yes.
Sadly, United have only one strategy - give the ball to Rooney. If he's fit and playing, it usually works.
A Plan B, there ain't..... 
Summer exits should include Neville, Berbatov, Anderson, Scholes, Hargreaves, Brown and Owen. A couple of dozen young players are on the books; its time to bring on the likes of Macheda, Gibson, Evans (x2), Gray, Tosic and James - as well as buying 1/2 with top level experience.
To state the bleeding obvious - the havoc creating and industrious Tevez should still be there, not the lazy and spasmotic Berbatov. Has this bloke ever HEARD of tracking back?

Chelsea sold him as his Agent(Father) said he wanted a move as Chelsea wouldn't up his £85,000 a week salary. Plus we got good money £25 Million, twice what we paid, selling him to Real Madrid. Also Jose preferred the newly signed Florent Malouda who of course has been brilliant this season. Unfortunately Robben is made of glass and sits out as many games as he plays,he is however a truly wonderful player and most of us wish he was still there for his twenty games a season!

Very exciting game so far 3-2 to Man U, but Bayern are winning on away goals (4-4 agg).
Great goal by Robben (why did Chelsea sell him?) and Man U are down to 10 men.
Could Bayern get their revenge after that jammy win by Man U in the 1999 final. |
