Ruud van Nistelrooy:
"Sir Alex Ferguson is going to build his third top team and I want to be a part of that. We are building a new team, a team to win the Champions League. United have become my club. United are, for me, the only club. I am perfectly satisfied here and the club are satisfied with me. Why on earth would I leave?
"The manager explained his plans for the future and those plans were very appealing to me. The very next day I signed the contract. I want to stay for the rest of my career and that is a great feeling for me.
"We (Ruud and his fiancée) feel at home here. We live well and we are perfectly happy. We don't want to go to Spain."
