It has been an academic year for United. Clinching the Premiership title with 5 games to go was not what United wanted, they wanted European gold. United were beaten at what is regarded as the early stage as they crashed out 3-1 on aggregate to Bayern Munchen in the quarter finals. Not such a good domestic cup year either. In the Worthington Cup, United were knocked out by Sunderland in the 4th round. In the F.A cup in the shock of the tournament United were knocked out at Old Trafford by West Ham.

The player of United’s season has to be Fabien Barthez. Barthez was signed as a replacement for the departed Schmeichel. Everyone thought that Barthez would not fill the boots left by Schmeichel as this was a task. Barthez has lived up to the task and is now a fan favourite and will be around a great keeper for years to come.

United seem to be spending big this summer. The signing of Ruud Van Nistelrooy for £19 million from PSV is just the start. United have a long list of players with the main targets being Rivaldo from Barcelona, Pavel Nedved from Lazio, Frederic Cisse from Marseille and Lillian Thuram from Parma.

If United get these players they will be an even stronger force and I can’t see anyone catching them for years to come.

Fergie is retiring at the end of next season and his successor will have a handful living up to the reputation of Fergie. However I’m sure that United will pick the right man for the job and will remain a dominant force in the world of English football.
