Do you think Ruud will leave Man Utd?  If he should decide to leave, which team do you think he'll join?

The papers say he is planning on leaving, and Man Utd is willing to sell him for 8mils. His old club, PSV, offered 5mils.. so we'll see what happens.

i think next season willbe the tightest for many years. as we all know chelsea can go out and buy whoever they want  and they will be the team to beat, especially if they do land Michael Ballack.  They need to land a top class striker as crespo and drogba are not cut out for the premiership.\nman united need to get  replacement for roy keane and also need to get the van nilsterooy situation sorted.  if they can buy someone who will strengthen the midfield and have a better combination up front with rooney then they will be hard to stop.  i don't know if they will sell van nilsterooy or just get him more settled.\nliverpool have improved a lot this season. getting over 70points in the premiership has been a long way off recently but this season rafa has the team playing well. if it had not been for that non scoring spell at the start of the season we would be up there now chasing chelsea and united.  obviously the defence is fantastic, it would be even better if we could find someone to take traore.  we need a winger, but then mark gonazalez has been doing fantastic in spain this season so hopefully his visa will be cleared this year.  and of course we need a prolific striker. fowler should stay but his days of scoring 25 goals a season are gone.  we need someone young and who has proven their talent already. darren bent maybe, or andy johnson if palace aren't promoted. \narsenal's young players really came to fruition in the second half of the season and they will have to dratically improve their away form next season if they are going to be up theree. if they manage ot hold on to henry then they will still need to bolster their midfield, especially as it appears pires is leaving. if henry leaves however, they will have a large sum of money to improve the squad. note i didn't say replace him, because a player of his skill and importance will never be replaced.\nso for next season it will be a close run thing. liverpool improved this year in having less stupid results against the minnows butin games against chelsea they suffered. that is the stumbling block for all the big teams, taking points off eachother but then taking nothing off chelsea. \nso to conclude........i think next season will depend on liverpool getting a top class striker. if they do then i think they will be the strongest contender to chelsea's title. bnt i expect chelsea to buy the title again.

van leaving isnt that big a deal, since he is beyond his peak, and was only disrupting the team at the end of the season. he had a spat with ferguson n bruised egos do nothing to help a team. saha was more impressive throughout the season anyway.\nif manu want a replacement for van they should look to get trezuguet. he is way better than van ever was and less of a wanker anyway. and with juve in strife the better players are looking to move elsewhere.\nas well, for manu to challenge for the title again, ferguson needs to leave. he's looking for one last title, but he doesnt have the fire in the belly to continue for much longer. BRING IN CAPELLO! he's already expressed desire to manage manu in the future and again, with juventus in strife, he may come sooner than expected.\nby the way, im an arsenal fan, but i like to see a competitive manu: makes our wins all the much sweeter

He used to say that he will continue to play for United because the club stood by him when his father passed away. But apparently, there were some rumours recently saying that he'll leave for Spain if either Real Madrid or Barcelona wants him after his bust-up with Ruud van Nistelrooy.\nAnyway, I hope he'll stay at United.

I don't know to much about pulis but i think he may have been forced out of stoke the first time.He hasn't done a bad job at Plymouth getting them up to mid table safety.I am a QPR fan and was very sorry to see Ollie go,he did a great job for us getting us promoted and then up to mid table safety in the first year of the championship.I hear he maybe going to yeovil but if you can get him he would do a great job for you.Good luck for next season

Still is great from the wing.  AF (Fergie) made him play on the far right and kept him there for the crosses that he provided.  Ruud made his mark with United based on that service from Beckham.\n\nHe is still a great crosser, but has a bad habit of wandering into the middle.  He fancies himself a midfielder in the vein of Zidane.  It is that wandering that got Fergie so angry at him that he kicked at boot at Beckham, cutting him over the eye.\n\nSir Alex has always put club before player and the moment a player starts thinking himself more important than the club, that is pretty much his exit ticket from United.  Jaap Stam, Yorke, Keano, Ruud(now) and Beckham.\n\nOh, what in the world happened to Beckham, he married a marketing and style icon that turned him into one too.

Yes yes yes do whatever it takes...I am with Librarygirl...but Guus is an honourable man and I think will follow through with his contract. I have wondered myself why he didn't take up a second term or was it he was not offered another term. 8 mths we had the pleasure of Guus's experience, imagine what he could do with a full 4 yrs. I think Soccer Australia should just wait a couple of weeks and see what arises and what interest is shown after their performance this WC. Whoever it is needs to be as good as Guus and nothing less or we will risk going backwards.

Henry is about to sign a 4 year deal to remain in arsenal.  It should soon be official.  I'm as choked to see him stay as I was when he put Tottenham out of the last Champions League spot.

They really don't need him and I don't think he'll want to come back to the FMF. He's always wanted to play in Europe and I wanna see how he does over there!! Didn't he just get signed there to Benfica?? Well yeah, I think it's better for him to stay in Portugal though.

life long liverpool fan here.\nsaw every champions league game and uafa game for last 4 seasons so before anyone questions what im about to say i want to clarify im not an armchair supporter!\n\nRafa is at the moment trying to make the best of a bad situation, lets not kid ourselves we do not have a world class squad! we have 5 maybe 6 world class players.\n\nGezza, Cara, Finnan, Risse, and posibly Kuyt and Sissoko the rest would not get in to any other prem team with out a fight!\n\nand untill we get some propper cash from somewear to buy some  great players we wnt catch the top 2.\n\nalso lets not forget liverpool is still a Ltd company not a PLC like the other to 25 teams in europe but to become a PLC and get the cash we will lose the controle and roots we currently have\n\nout of the top 25 earning teams of 2005 liverpool where the only none PLC!\n\nalso Rafa is buying what he knows hes a spanish bloke and buying spanish players this is not difficult to understand if i managed in spain i would buy english player because thats what i know. so we have to give there plays a little extra time to settle in to the english league. but i also agree that some are not pulling thier weight. Garcia for a start is nothing more than a big game showman.\n\nbut finaly we as liverpool supporters have never been ones to critisise a manager we are not united of everton fans are we.\n\nwe are the fans who will sing out losing side of the pitch and as for raffa he has done what only 5 english based managers have done in history and thats wine the cream de la cream European cup.\n\nwe must remember who we are and what he has done for us a fith european cup. \n\nSir Alex was nearlly sacked after 3 years and now we learn he almost joined spurs a year later but they stuck buy him and his 20 years in charge have let united get a good foothold on our records and trophy cabernet.\n\nnow lets give Rafa some time lets suport him through thick and thin and lets remember we never walk alone and nor should Rafa

There several thousand fans who are crazier than you about Man United. They have followed the club through ups and downs.\nThey have seen players, managers come and go. Be humble.

Personally, I am a Man Utd fan, and 'off the field' I say they are the best.\n\nBut, the players, on paper, I say Chelsea.  Not because of the lead in the league, but simple due to the players that have been brought in to 'artifically' boost their stock.\n\nNow, someone below mentioned Man Utd using their 'home grown' talent, and sure there's a couple, but, Ronaldo, Park, van der Saar, howard, heinze, evra, Vidic, Saha, Rooney, Ruud.... those don't look home grown to me.  But, at least they do have some home growns in there.\n\nOne thing that Man Utd has more of though is heart.  Them boys are playing very well right now, and the silverspoons in London have to at least be noticing it a little, even if that egotist manager doesn't think so.\n\nBut, I give mourinho credit, be design or chance, he has managed to hog a lot of spotlight to keep if off his players, so I guess the show isn't all that bad.\n\nGo Man U - I am sure newcastle is rooting for ya since this collapse would take them off the mantle of having had the biggest one.\n\nDo I expect it... nope.  Chelsea has a tougher schedule and are still in the FA Cup, but have enough players to do both.  the lynchpin is the game versus Man Utd.  If the devils win that, they have a chance.  if not, the Blues keep the big silver novelty plate.

Rubbish, I will be dissapointed in Shevchenko and A.C. Milan for letting one of the best players go. Also Chelsea will turn corupt, and they still are not going to win the Champions league. They might have the money but the don't have heart. And that's one thing you can't buy.

If you take the emotion out of it then the truth is that the Players are just not good enough. It didn't just happen this year and has been a problem for a few years due to lack of investment on the playing side. We got rid of Big Eck when in retrospect what he did in taking virtually the same team to the last 16 of the Champions League was nothing short of a miracle.There are players wearing the shirt who are not good enough to do so and while Le Guen may have signed some of them but he was working within the budget given to him. He has underestimated the teams that make up the SPL ( like many others) but a new Manager will not turn things around in the short term. For starters they need 3 quality defenders and 1 quality midfielder and they are only going to find them in the Summer and then if the money is available. Murray has put a lot of time and money into Rangers so I have no quarrels with him but it is time to go as he has clearly lost his appetite and is not about to put them back into debt and affect the selling price. The best we can hope for is an improvement in results which make the club look like a viable purchase without large scale investment but the root problem will still remain.
