Totally agree with you Derek, Fergy is one cool cookie, another season like he's had this season and his value will have shot up again. But he's already planning for the future with players like Nani and Anderson, the later will be a big star in the future

I agree that Man U should try and hang onto Ronaldo for at least one more season and then another if he repeats last season’s performance.

But I suspect that many of the defenders are beginning to follow the old defending tradition of watching the ball and not trying to anticipate what the man is going to do. That is one of the reasons why Ronaldo doesn’t get past defenders to use his pace every time and ends up sat on the deck claiming that he was fouled.

But like others before him, he is not indispensable and if his demands are unacceptable Fergie will get shut, but not to an English team.
