Rooney 'knocks and strains' my arse-dropped for taking beer on Boxing Day and getting found out. Silly boy. Doesn't change the situation of Fergie being a dinosaur. 3 more years. Heaven help us.

It's best not to believe everything you read on twitter.

I hope you're on the wind up.

United have been in 3 of the last 4 Champions League finals. If this makes Ferguson a dinosaur, then you must be a resounding success at everything you do in this world.

How many of those did they win?- One and that in a penalty shoot-out. As far behind Barcelona as a donkey in a derby. Time stands still for no man. It was good while it lasted but it's time to bite the bullet.

IMO United would have won more Champions leagues if they didn't come face to face with the best club side of all time & like i said before some won't realise how good Fergie is/was until he's gone.

I take your point all right but no-one really remembers who were the 2nd best team. Ferguson has a had a great career and the English history books bear testament to this. That's all in the past though and the present squad is nowhere near good enough. The old goat is too stubborn to grasp the nettle and sign the players necessary to win in England never mind Europe

Roscommon would be like the Costa del Sol if Ireland wasn't so far north.

Everymanaman, as said before, you must live a life of impeccably high standards, if you genuinely believe that Fergie's recent seasons have not been good enough.

The most bizarre thing of all is that the only reason the likes of you can have such expectations from United is Alex Ferguson. Before he arrived, being in touching distance of top spot at Christmas was a pipe dream.

Ok that explains the last 3 years, what about all the other years??

Happy Birthday Alex, ready.

Didn't make the finals did they & for example 04,05,06 United were going through a period of transition were hardly going to trouble the best in Europe when they weren't the best in England.

Finalists in 2004, 2005 & 2006

Porto v Monaco
Liverpool v AC Milan
Arsenal v Barcelona.

At the end of the day the CL is cup competition occasionally you'll get inferior teams winning it Liverpool 05 & Greece (winning the euros) are prime examples. United on the other hand showed there consistent brilliance by reaching 3 finals in 4 years & as i said already there chances of winning those finals would have been better if they didn't play the best club ever.

So you agree Liverpool showed "there consistent brilliance" in reaching 2 out of 3 finals, or was that luck?
