Promise Is One Thing. Fulfilling That Promise

As With Every Young Player These Days, Ronaldo Is 18.

Lampard, For Me, Was A Marvellous Servant For Chelsea, But I Didn't Think Of Him As An Elite International Footballer. And I Am One Of The Few Who Felt Gerrard Was Not A Top, Top Player.

I Was Doing All The Coaching Schools So That I'd Be Able To Stay In The Game, And I Gave Myself A Chance By Doing That. I Was Only An Average Player, Could Score A Goal Or Two, That Sort Of Thing, But I Wasn't A Bobby Charlton Or A Messi, Or Ronaldo. There Are Very, Very Few Really Great Players Who Have Become Great Coaches.

It's A Horrible Part Of The Game When You Have To Tell A Player, Probably Somebody Who Has Helped You Win So Much That His Time Is Up. You Treat Them Like Family, And Because They Are Your Family It Becomes Even More Hurting In The Sense That You Have Got To Say "well Son, I'm Sorry, You Won't Be A Regular Here, But You Will Still Have A Career Elsewhere.' It's Happened More Than A Few Times But It Is Not An Easy Thing To Handle.

I Never Worried About Teams Who Spend What They Want To Spend. It Never Bothered Me. At The Moment We Have A Lot Of Middle Eastern Owners, We Have American Owners Of Course, Russian Owners. It Never Bothered Me One Bit. All I Was Concerned About Was That We At United Maintained Our Level Of Expectation, Be Competitive, Be At The Top Part Of The Premier League.
