Ronaldo & Manu

While it seemed impossible that the winger Cristiano Ronaldo could top his 2006/07 antics, he did just that the following season. Ronaldo played a major part! scoring 42 goals! As the Reds saw off the challenge of Chelsea to notch the Double. Strengthened by the summer signings of Owen Hargreaves, Carlos Tevez, Anderson and Nani, United recovered from a slow start to the season to being on top off the table for the majority of the campaign. Despite a late charge from Chelsea, a final-day victory at Wigan which Ryan Giggs secured a winner which secured a 17th league title for United. Ten days later, in Moscow, the Reds and Blues fought it out for silverware again. Ronaldo's opener was cancelled out by Frank Lampard and, after 120 long hard minutes, the match went to penalties. Ronaldo's miss gave John Terry the chance to take the trophy, but the Chelsea skipper slipped and smacked his effort against the post. Manu won the shoot out and won the champions league for the 3rd time
