2008, Tahun Emas Manchester United

Manchester United are the Champions of Europe and the Champions of England too (ESPN). Sungguh merupakan malam yang spektakuler, Manchester United, tim favorit abadi saya mencetak prestasi double win, juara Liga Premiere Inggris 2007/2008, dan kemudian dituntaskan dengan menjadi UEFA Champions 2007/2008. Amazing squad, amazing manager, it is truly the golden year for Manchester United. Selamat...
Walau menonton final yang sangat panjang melawan Chelsea, namun rasa lelah dan ngantuk bisa ditutup dengan senyum lebar menyaksikan pasukan campuran tua muda ini mengangkat piala Champions. Van der Sar memblok penalti terakhir dari Anelka setelah Ronaldo gagal dan nyaris membuat MU kalah, maka meledaklah stadion Luzhniki di Moscow. Luar biasa. What a year to remember...

Melihat mereka, saya melihat kerja keras, profesionalisme, spirit super tinggi, stndar pengelolaan klub kelas dunia dan tentu saja diimbangi gelimangan kemewahan dan kehidupan glamour.

Berikut beberapa statement asli dari para pelatih dan pemain yang saya copy dari ESPN.

Ronaldo: 'I feel very proud for the lads. They believe all the time. The lads deserve the Champions League. I looked forward to winning this competition -and we won the Premier League. It's a magnificent season for me.' Ronaldo shrugged off missing his penalty in the shoot-out, adding: 'This is football. I don't know what to say. 'I think we're going to lose. I score the goal and miss the penalty. The worst day of my life. 'But the lads did the proper job and I feel very proud for them. It means everything for me.'

Ferguson: 'It's a fantastic achievement. I'm delighted for my players. I think this has the making of my best team. That's the first penalty shoot-out I've ever won. When we missed the penalty kick (from Ronaldo) we thought we were in trouble but I thought we deserved the win.'
