Then again, perhaps he has decided to retire after this World Cup, so no bridges required.
Anyway, I see many people talking about his Utd 'legacy'.
Yes, he did well with us in his first stint. But to me, this is his legacy:
Utd and SAF gave him the platform to grow and become a Ballon d'Or winner.
After which, he promptly left to give his prime years to another club. And then another club.
We bailed him out when things got sticky with his last club, gave him a romantic reunion. And quite possibly screwed up that season trying to accomodate him.
And now, when we finally have a manager who looks like he is starting to set things in the right direction, he gives this interview. To an Arsenal fanboy.
Legacy.
