Legend - Would love it if he became a great coach and managed us some day

I was thinkin about all the great performnces he's made and what i thought was his best through the years back in his hayday. But then I remembered this season when he got drafted in at the last minute at Old Trafford against the Mancs, OUT OF THE BLUE, and had Ronaldo, Rooney, Tevez, Berbatov, Charlton, Best, Cantona and Law in his back pocket and I think that should be remembered as his swan song.

He looked like Ivan Drago, he'll be remembered like Rocky.

No more fanta on these emotional occasions

It was a nice touch when Gerrard put the armband on him as well. :nod

Why?

Shame Rafa didn't start with him and give him the armband, maybe we would have kept a clean sheet with him at CB.
