Right ... as much as I respect those two but I do not think you are that 'old'.

No arguments here. Fergie is definitely the best manager of the decade. How many PL titles did he won in a decade? People keep pointing on that United bought youngsters and not producing them. First of all, if it is not because that stupid rule in England, any team would be able to scout for talents in any part of England.

Secondly, other teams bought youngsters too but how many of them could ever play for the first team of their respective clubs? You can figure this out by yourself. I am not bigging up Fergie's achievements but one has to be think for not seeing his success over the years.

Marketing? With the help of the board and staff, United is the no. 1 brand in football. United has a BIG fan base across the world. You can't just discount that. And successes on the field? Well, go figure.

Eventhough United bought youngsters like Rooney, Jones and Smalling, it still takes a lot of work to 'raise' them to what they are today. Especially on Rooney, he's no longer that hot-headed person. And most of our academy talents went to some other PL clubs.

I am not sure where he get his info but he is definitely wrong. Of course there are talents coming from the club, Fletcher, O'Shea, Brown, to name a few. And like I've said, most of our 'products' went to other PL clubs.

What has Istanbul got to do with the discussion? Goodness.

The rule is stupid. Hence, bigger clubs have to buy players from smaller clubs. Let me ask you, what has your club produce in the recent years? Last that I could remember is Gerrard. Oh, I'm talking on first XI. Kelly?

Want me to name ours?

You can't even understand simple English. I said BIG FANBASE.

Have you heard voices of United fans in away sections of any PL clubs? Meh.

And, the title is for the DECADE. Shankley and Dalglish? Really? Junior, you have to understand the context before replying here.

Which comes to my mind about that shitty rule of talent scouting. I can see the whole idea in protecting other club's well being and so on but England is not doing themselves a favour there.

That former AC Milan coach. Leonardo? He's good looking.

Well, both also being conquered by the same man(in PL of course).

I like Pep. He's classy.

Mourinho, on the other hand, at times can be a big jerk. But, I really have to hand it to him, capable of managing big name players. Well, except for that GENIUS Mario Balotelli.
