As for Foreign players go and i hear Manure fans calling him a legend blah blah, he's nowhere near Legend status....... Dennis Bergkamp pisses all over him, Ole wouldnt be fit to clean his shoes in terms of foreign players that have come to the Prem.

A real ambassador for football and a great player.
he was a fair player
i really think he should be ashamed of remaining a substitute at the scum all those years and never having a real career. i think that was pretty cowardly actually.
injuring sami, his shanked late winner in the cup-tie in 1999 and his goal in their lucky and undeserved european cup win are just irritations. my overriding feeling for this player is contempt for his acceptance of being a marginal, bit-part player in a wining side rather than a first choice player in a real side.
He did show a lack of ambition IMO. He played about as much as a sub keeper does. If he had been a sub keeper of that quality and been happy to scrape enough appearances each season to pick up a winners medal, I would have said he lacked ambition. Fact is he was never going to make it as a regular starter and he just accepted it. Any footballer wants to play, he should have moved to another top side and really tested himself, see if he could make it as a key player in a big team. he got comfortable at Man U and lacked the bottle to really push himself elsewhere. Still he always seemed a likelable sort and was a classy finisher, that is for sure.
According to the BBC he played about 30 games last season (about half as sub) and scored 11 goals which for a crocked player is bloody impressive.
