Premier league 2011/12

As I mentioned previously, I think Fergie is a bit of a Marmite character - you love him or you hate him!

That might explain why some players spend their whole career at Man U, whereas others (Tevez, Van Nistlerooy, Beckham & Jaap Stam, to name just a few), end up leaving Old Trafford in acrimonious circumstances.

And perhaps the reason Veron was terrible for Man U but did so well at Lazio (under Sven Goran Erikkson) is because he responds better to an easy going manager than a 'kick up the backside' manager!

As for being a bully, well the players know where the door is if they don't like it and the fact that the likes of Giggs and Scholes and many many more have stayed with him for their whole career's speaks volumes.

Most of Ferguson's ex-players speak with incredible warmth about him, even David Beckham who as we all know had several run ins with him.
He also seems to inspire real loyalty in his players, unlike the likes of Wenger who develops players and then can't seem to hang on to them (although to be fair wages may have something to do with that).
I think Ferguson is probably great to play for - just don't get on the wrong side of him! Even Keane didn't last long once he had annoyed the gaffer.

Another convincing win for city.

...and for United!

Another convincing win for city.

I can't wait for the Manchester Derby.

Euler,

Surely, Man Utd vs Chelsea (this Saturday) is more significant.

Blackburn's price looks a little short against Arsenal.

[Euler]

Got lucky there!

LOL Arsenal are a bloody shambles at the back

I'm not convinced Wenger will still be in the job come the end of the season

If they can't turn this around it will be a real low, Blackburn are not exactly on fire at the moment.
