i have to say... ferguson is a lucky man.. ok he's driven and he drives his team brilliantly but god he's gotten lucky with decisions over the years, his transfer record is less than stellar. back to veron, and all thsoe really poor bets he's made like own, bebe, etc etc etc. scatter gun approach and based on giggs, scholes and a few others... i'd hope rodgers get the time to make enough stick... rafa got the time to replace morientes pennet and such and improved. Kenny bought for one year and got sacked.. if rodgers football is right then i hope he is allowed make a bloody mistake or two and fix it... if dempsey is one he's one.
Fergie was at the right club at the right time which enabled him to splash the cash for years - Rio's only just been replaced by Thiago Silva (sp) as the worlds most expensive defender, he joined Man Utd a decade ago!!!
I can't see RVP joining Man Utd. He'll either join City for the money or Juve for the regular starting place
