Basically Ronaldo is the legend he Is today because of Walter Smith!
Great clip.
Always liked Fletcher as a player for Man Utd. Think with Scotland we wanted him to be something he wasn’t. In the EPL he was an excellent competitor, hard in the tackle too.

God bless Sir Walter, love the man.
As an aside I liked the bit Fletcher said about them signing Ronaldo during the 2nd half of the friendly, after Ronald ripped them apart in the first half. The players were all asking the manager to sign him.

Yes...Just shows how regardless how good Sir Alex was it needed someone else ie Walter to come in and tweak the team and players in order to take them to another level.

Been posted a few times, still great to see/hear.
Fletcher has also said in the past, when Smith was Scotland boss, Scholes, Giggs etc would always ask how he (Smith) was doing, to pass on their regards.

Did fletcher do the new year game as pundit, was it another?
did well on gantry with Boyd and mibbe hart son?
Absolutely no chance, hopefully he will one day though.
Get that rod away.
I have mentioned this on here before but many years ago i was on holiday in Portugal -Praia de Rocha.
Got chatting to the odd job guy for the holiday complex one day about football.
He was a Sporting Lisbon fan and he mentioned Ronaldo. He had only just started playing for the first team but i always remember him saying that Ronaldo would be the best player in the world one day.
Dunno why i remember this as you hear these quoted often but the guy was so insistent about Ronaldo.

Messi is the player he is without even having the advantage of Sir Walter’s influence, ergo he is better.

I loved how Andy Gray puffed his chest out and said “I love Walter”. There’s a lot about Steven Gerrard that reminds me of Walter Smith. I can think of no higher compliment.

I wonder what Roy Keane made of Walter Smith,given his massive contribution to Rangers and the fact he was a fan too?.

Keane still captain then? If so better off running home.
