I admire Hargreaves for these comments. Imo, if Sven hadn't shown the faith to play him during NT matches when everyone and there dog wanted Hargreaves off the team... United probably would not have made an offer for him.
Also glad that an NT player really stepped up for Sven. A lil too late imo, but there none the less.
This Hargreaves purchase is going to be make a tremendous and immediate impact on United. Very excited to see him play.
Quote:
Owen Hargreaves has thanked Sven Goran Eriksson for his support and says he is a 'fantastic manager'.
Hargreaves has completed a £17million switch to Manchester United from Bayern Munich after a year-long pursuit that began following the player's impressive showing for England in the 2006 World Cup.
But many critics had called for Eriksson to drop the midfielder prior to the competition, and Hargreaves is extremely grateful to the newly appointed Manchester City boss for keeping faith.
"Eriksson is a fantastic manager," he told The Sun.
"He had lots of success and I appreciate he supported me along the way when other people, at times, didn't agree.
"He showed faith in me because he believed in me as a player.
"His support was great."
