Dwight Yorke had a great time at Manchester United, scoring an incredible 30 goals in his first
season with the club. 1998-1999 was a magic season for us and Yorke played a massive part in
it.
The goal that probably stands out in most memories is the equaliser he scored against Juve in
the European Cup semi-finals, after we had gone 2-0 in ten minutes in Turin.
Manchester United season ticket holder, Andy Cole, has praised our strikeforce today, claiming
that Wayne Rooney is ready to fill Cristiano Ronaldo's boots and that Dimitar Berbatov is
'elegant'.
"Rooney has started the season really well," said Cole. "He's ready to step into
Ronaldo's shoes.
Despite being one of the most promising strikers to have been produced in England for some time
Wayne Rooney has never really had the starring role at Old Trafford. Cristiano
Ronaldo was always the focal point in that particular United side but now the Portuguese wizard has
moved to Real Madrid the door has opened for Wayne to really prove himself.
Liverpool legend Graeme Souness was tough-tackling monster of a player who combined prodigious
talent with a ferocity that made him feared by the opposition. It seems that this mean-streak
continued into his managerial career, with one of his own players on the receiving end of a deadly
Souness special.
First they appoint a former England manager as their Director of Football, then they go and sign
a former England international, surely this is any clubs dream, but evidently not in the case of
Notts County.
We all thought it was too good to be true when the news broke of Sven Goran Eriksson appointment
as the new Director of Football at League Two club, but then we heard money was involved, so, it
wasn't such a shock anymore.
