i think that if you score 21 goals (second this year to only henry[27]) you will stay where you are. Lets face it, with rooney a loose cannon and now injured, and not knowing if ronaldo will make an attempt to win a ball, van nisterooy literally carried man u offensively to a very respectable second place finish in the premiership. Ruud's solid play was the glue that held the Manchester lineup together. It would be a shame and a dreadful mistake if the mangement lets him slip away.
