Never been to OT myself, but had the wonderful pleasure of seeing them thrash Juventus in NYC - watching with the woman who would become my wife. This was the summer after Beckham left. Van Nistelrooy was imperious, Solskjaar, Keane. It was the record crowd for Giants Stadium in New Jersey, mostly Italian Americans. Lots of ex-pat and travelling English. Fabulous atmosphere. I love United. Ronaldo will soon be gone. Personally, I thought we were on our way to building a dynasty. Last year the team was rarely in top gear - I kept thinking that when they consistently hit their stride there would be few to stand up to them. They have a wonderful team at the moment. I'll thank Ronaldo to kindly fuck off, and twist his ankle shortly thereafter. Kid has zero class. Back to the lottery stand- see you at Old Trafford one day. @PO13: Thank you.

He is and has been my favorite manager/coach for roughly 8 years, so his depature hurts few more than me. But lets be objective: according to reports, there were provisions in his contract that would allow him to leave should the chance to manage Portugal arise. It did. He rejected other opportunities to manage, Benfica being the most recent; that's a measure of loyalty. The man seems to get claustrophic being at one place too long, so 5 years of service aint bad considering. Gratefully, he's left the club with a deeper appreciation for and pratical means of applying more scientific principles. He more likely than not left because he wasn't offered the assurances of being the next manager that his contributions merit. Elswhere, I in time may agree with Grognard assessment of SAF lack of urgency and his using Ronaldo as a tool in personal crusade against the evils of the game that is taking shape. But he is SAF, so we should give him the benefit of the doubt for the moment First, CQ is not a hypocrite.
