On the subject of Shev and Ballack (let's not forget Veron too...) Roman was like a child in a sweetshop, trying different sweets and throwing away the ones he didn't like. United have never had the luxury of working that way. As with Jose no-one will deny he is talented however I have a feeling the lure of all this newly aquired (and bought) talent, plus an almost 'open-chequebook' mentality probably played a big part in his deciding to take the job.

And to a degree I will concur with that - however surely anyone can see that comparing where the money came from with United and Chelsea is unfair?
