Well not exactly a classical Orchestra, but Sir Alex Fergusosn still gets it right with his "Orchestra"
HI!! Well I know I was so lost in work but I have been coaching and catching the Champions League and Manchester United is the talk of the town. If there is a way to replicate or clone one man in United it would be Sir Alex, how does he just keep churning out those teams and sustain that tempo on and off the field? The simple passing game at high speed seems simple but it obviously is not, but what many people fail to notice is when United lose the ball, this is the key because they manage to get it back quickly. It is hard to see teams stringing together more then 4 or 5 passes before United get the ball, the synchronisation and training that the Red Devils demonstrate are like a well rehearsed orchestra.
Many critics especially in Europe from Lippi to Cruyff have critised English football and United, but let us be honest now, England as a national team are really in the dumps, but the clubs are really doing well. If United don't play the entertaining way as Arsenal or Barcelona do well does that mean that they bore the hell out of you? Definitely not, look at the combination of workrate and flair they have and you will see that this is a real team with the right balance and they do by all accounts entertain.
The second leg of the Champions League between Manchester United and Inter is going to be interesting and I have a funny feeling that United will win this and meet Liverpool in the quarter-finals.
