Man Utd boss Ferguson: I wish Ronaldo was still here

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson says he wishes Cristiano Ronaldo was still with the club.

Twenty-eight goal striker Wayne Rooney has been in explosive form this season after being given more responsibility since the departure of Ronaldo to Real Madrid.

"Ronaldo's departure has nothing to do with Wayne's form," argued Ferguson.

"The credit must go to Wayne's development as a footballer and his rise in the game.

"I just wish we still had Cristiano here as well."

Great real Madrid? I suppose someone forgot to tell Lyon that. I bet you any money that ronaldo wishes he never left united, he's already stated he misses united and would like to come back one day.
Craig the problem with being so arrogant and full of yourself is that you and your team have to be able to back it up otherwise you look and feel.. Well like you do now.
