Great post. It's always very interesting to see the "behind the scenes" of transfer purchases esp. one the likes of Ronaldo. Queiroz hopefully will remain at United as the assistant until SAF steps down and I think Queiroz will be more than capable of carrying the torch.

Quote:
''Alex had to make a quick decision after Lisbon," smiled Queiroz. ''Otherwise Jorge and I would have got Cristiano." Another strange reflection is that Ronaldo might have gone to Liverpool had the Anfield budget, in Gerard Houllier's time, been generous enough to permit big wages for a teenager. United could accommodate Ronaldo.
Thank God he didn't become a f-in scouser. Obviously he went to the right team. All's well that ends well.
I can't imagine a Premier League where Liverpool could actually seriously contend for the Premiership title.
