Oh dear DL, the amount of time you spend on our board, you should know that it's been demonstrated more than once that various other clubs had a bigger net spend than United for the majority of the past 20 seasons. Fergie may have had the money at his disposal but he didn't need to use all of it to be the winner he was.
Thats the biggest load of **** I've read. I'm not saying he was or wasn't offered the job but for you to think that makes you a complete ****ing idiot
Oh ok, so that means that what you said isn't stupid ofcourse next time try back up your comment rather than give a stupid response like that
Any manager who wouldn't consider the biggest job in the game if offered is in the wrong business. If you're offered the job you say yes. Unless you doubt yourself.
He considered and took the Real job despite facing greatest ever Barca side, and knocked Pep off his perch
Not really the biggest job is it? Bit of a circus act more than a job. Even Ramos has been Madrid manager, infact they have had 24 managers during Fergies tenure. They have a manager turnover rate that rival Macdonalds
Still won three European cups though! Real has bigger revenue, stadium, following, trophies, European Cups and history than United. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-22193398 Real Madrid overtakes Man Utd in Forbes rich list http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deloitte_Football_Money_League Real top of Deloittes money league for a decade Real Madrid 32/10 United 20/3
Good game! Aston Villa 7/1 Chelsea 4/1 Just FYI, Real have won 9 European Cups. Jose was hired to deliver number 10.
You can't really compare the EC of the 50's & 60's to today. They really should keep them as a separate stat to the CL. No comparison.
Agreed. No way I would count Reals 5 European cups in a row. anyway who cares. We're signing a ****ing midfielder!
Don't be a complete prick all the time. Do you think they are in anyway comparable? Just look at the teams Real had to beat when winning the first 5. You're rapidly becoming just another boring manu glory hunting teenage overseas prick.
Could say the same about Liverpool some of the teams they had to beat in the 70's and 80's were awful.
