With all the talk of dumping Veron...I haven't seen many MU's players dedication expressed so clearly as this that I found at soccernet:
Veron:
'My own ambition is secondary to the enormous debt of honour and friendship that I owe to Alex Ferguson,' he said. 'It stems from those periods last season that weren't pleasant, when the headlines about me were "misfit" and "Ferguson's worst buy" when my commitment and ability were being
constantly questioned. He stood by me and defended my reputation in public. In private when he recognised there were moments of great doubt coming from within me he offered me words of reassurance and great kindness.
'He would see this, as a father does with his son, and react with a word, a wink, a smile.
'These are the qualities of not just a champion manager but a good and kind man. It is why I must repay this debt. The question is always the same - am I staying at United or am I leaving? This is the simple answer: I am staying and I would like to see out at least the remaining years of my contract - and possibly more if they want me to. I want to show the people of Manchester that I have it in me to be a champion. In achieving my own ambitions I would also fulfil the ambitions of this club.'

Sounds to me that-
A. He's not going anywhere soon.
B. We should be seeing a new Veron this coming season. (provided he's fit to play-fewer injuries)
