4. Owen Hargreaves

 

Monday, September 17, 2007

In his own words, it was “possibly the longest-running transfer saga” in football. But after a several months of prolonged pursuit, United finally signed Owen Hargreaves from Bayern Munich in May 2007.

The Canadian-born, England international midfielder’s stock has risen dramatically in the past year. During the World Cup, one newspaper reported that he was “a shock £7million target” for Sir Alex. His eventual fee was closer to £17million when the transfer finally went through, and Hargreaves had become one of European football’s most highly-thought of defensive midfielders.

Born and raised in Calgary, Canada, where his parents moved from England in the early eighties, Owen left for Germany aged 16 to join Bayern Munich.

After earning his stripes in their youth ranks, a 19-year-old Hargreaves made the step up to first-team football in August 2000 in what was a highly successful season as Bayern claimed the Bundesliga title and Champions League crown. In the semi final against Real Madrid Hargreaves showed he could hold his own against Madrid's "galacticos", and remains one of only two English players to win the European Cup with a non-English club - the other being Steve McManaman.

~ CRISTIANO RONALDO PROFILE ~

 

Name: Cristiano Ronaldo
Born: , Portugal
Nationality: Portugal
Position: Right midfielder, Left midfielder
DOB: 5/2/1985
Current Club: Manchester United

Cristiano Ronaldo became Manchester United's newest young hero when he signed from Sporting Lisbon in August 2003 and was immediately given David Beckham's number 7 shirt.

The Portuguese teenager is expected to become one of the world's best players in years to come, but will be trying to offer support to Ruud van Nistelrooy as soon as possible.

Hailed by Sir Alex Ferguson as the most outstanding young talent in Europe, Cristiano Ronaldo is skilful, he has got an awful lot of talent and he can open people up. So much is his adoration for the Portuguese that the Man Utd manager had no hesitation in handing this tricky and unpredictable winger the No7 shirt vacated by David Beckham in summer 2003.

Among his main characteristics there are: terrific physique, balance, pace, two feet and he`s technically terrific. Also he`s got a fantastic personality and great strength of mind.

Born in Madeira in August 1985, Ronaldo joined Sporting Clube de Portugal from CD Nacional in 1997. Made his debut for the Lisbon club against Internazionale FC in the 2002/03 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round, and went on make 25 appearances - starting eleven of them - in his only season at Sporting. Joined United on 13 August 2003 - the same day as Kleberson - for €17.5m, a world-record fee for a teenager.

Ronaldo is in the mold of a past Manchester United winger, by the name of George Best. Ronaldo is as comfortable on the left as he is on the right side of the pitch.

Cristiano Ronaldo produced a performance to remember at the Millennium Stadium as Manchester United claimed a record 11th FA Cup win in 2004.

Ronaldo tortured the Millwall defence with a mesmerising display of wing wizardry that the First Division side simply could not handle.

Played an important role in Portugal's run to the finals of Euro 2004. Ended the tournament with 2 goals and 2 assists.
