    Thats funny because most people would say Unite became a trendy team some time between 93 and 00, which is when Solskjaer was a major part of the team. They didn't just become a trendy team.

    Now Chelsea is a trendy team, new money does that to teams.

    He'll be back. I believe David Gill the United chief exec. who has stated that Cronaldo will be back. I don't see him pulling a Stam, Van Nistelrooy or Heinze in starting stuff to get out of manchester. Plus all that is needed is for the English mags to give his GF more modeling gigs.

    There's a huge difference between Man U's success over the past 2 decades and Chelsea. Man U built from within. Giggs, Scholes, the Neville brothers, Beckham, Wes Brown, etc, etc, etc were all from the youth system. Yes, they've added from the outside (Van Nistelrooy, Ronaldo, Ferdinand, Tevez, etc). But, their success was due to the homegrown players with the outsiders helping to push them over the top.

    Chelsea, on the other hand, is the Yankees. They bought their way into success.

    I respect Man U's success much more than I will ever respect Chelsea.

    Terry may have spit at Tévez. The evidence, according to www.thespoiler.co.uk, is at around the 12th second into the clip.

    ":eek: That... is one magic loogie..." - name that episode (difficulty: easy)
