Could Ronaldinho Be Like Larsson..??!!

Sir Alex Ferguson loves to pull a rabbit out of the hat in the transfer market and two iconic figures could provide him with another potential for a mid-season masterstroke.

In the 2007 January transfer window the United boss acted on impulse and an encouraging tip-off from his chief scout that Henrik Larsson might be tempted by a loan move to the Reds.

United were in need of a winter pick-me-up and the legendary Swedish striker made the temporary switch from Helsingborg.

Larsson scored on his debut to win an FA Cup third round tie against Aston Villa, scored as a sub in a 4-0 league win against Watford and bagged the winner against Lille in a Champions League last 16 second leg tie.

Three goals in 13 appearances are the simple black and white stats of Larsson’s impact. But his stamp on the dressing room lifted the Reds.

Even established stalwart figures among the United camp were buoyed by his arrival.

In his final match at Middlesbrough in the FA Cup, the Reds dressing room stood to a man to applaud the striker when he came off the field at the Riverside.

It was a touching and spontaneous gesture that rubber-stamped Ferguson’s masterstroke and it paid dividends as United went on from that mid-term fillip to win back the Premier League crown from Chelsea.

With permanent big name imports unlikely this transfer window, may the United manager would be tempted to do ‘a Larsson’ again to bolster the table-topping Reds?
