We certainly believe he will be staying with the club next year. He signed a new long-term contract and there is two further years to go on that. He is part of our squad which we are looking to improve in the summer.
Sir Alex and Carlos made their views known and I can only reiterate what they said. Ruud has a two-year contract with Manchester United and remains very much part of our long-term planning. I saw what came out of Italy yesterday but as far as I am concerned, it is just mischief making.
The board had concerns before they took over, but they've demonstrated they will listen.
The FA Cup is important to everyone at the club. We have a great record in it and we want to win a trophy.
I'm happy we're state champs. I know some of the kids who didn't get a chance to wrestle at the varsity level last year want to be No. 1 in the state -- but being a state champ is just as good.
It's been with me for many years. I don't seem to want to part with it.
As a club, Manchester United are very supportive of the collective agreement.
What the clubs would like to do is look at the actual format of the Champions League run by UEFA.
We chased it but if you are after a winger you look at maybe three but you only need one. So if you don't get number one you move onto number two.
We are very confident that we will reach an agreement to extend Ryan's stay at Old Trafford.
Yes, there is some dissent and clearly we understand the feelings but we feel it is a minority,
You f***** us over big-time, Gill I cant believe you sold us out.
We are still the most profitable club in the world. We have nothing to hide. We are transparent and publish our figures when no other Premier League club does.
The transfer market has changed. In the whole of Europe last year there were only five transfers in excess of /10m if you exclude Chelsea.
