My 1st choice wud be Milan... but of course Paolo will stand in the way.
So now I hope/wish Marcelo Bielsa goes to Utd next
Remember when Utd would be 2 goals down at half time but you just knew nine times out of ten they would find a way back and win the match. They are a long way from that now. Consistency has been non-existent for a number of years now.
Wales manager Ryan Giggs has denied an allegation of assault made against him.
The Wales manager has been arrested on suspicion of assaulting his girlfriend, several newspapers have reported.
Wayne Rooney has revealed Sir Alex Ferguson hated the manner in which Manchester United beat Barcelona in the semi-final of the Champions League in 2008.
United would go in to defeat Chelsea on penalties in the final in Moscow that year.
But Ferguson's side would lose to Barcelona in the final the following year, and Rooney says it was the Scotsman's desire not to repeat their defensive victory over the Spaniards which scuppered their chances at Wembley.
Rooney said: "He hated playing defensive. Really hated it.
"When we got to the final in 2009, he said to us he knew we could beat them playing that way, but then he said, 'We are Manchester United and we are not going into the Champions League final to sit back all game.
"'We are going to attack them and do it the right way.' We were all sitting there in the team meeting thinking, 'Oh f***.'
"Sir Alex went through their side, saying, 'Let's go at them.' Then you saw the names like Messi, Eto'o and Henry!
"I was like, 'F****** 'ell, how much pace do you want in one team?'"
Formosinho believes the Red Devils would have emerged victorious under Mourinho?s guidance had they been competing on a level playing field, with City deemed to have bent the rules when it comes to splashing out on new recruits.
?We weren?t champions, it?s true, but we won the Europa League, the League Cup, the Super Cup and, in a fight with a Manchester City, who did not fulfil, as proved later, the Financial Fair Play, we were runners-up at a time when, having sporting truth, we would?ve been champions,? Formosinho told Record.
Didn't knew that lukaku is Arsenal's fans
