Top man VidicA massive team effort from Manchester United, but if one player stands out over the season it has to be Nemanja Vidic. The 0-0 draw against Arsenal was their 37th clean sheet in all competitions. That is outstanding. New Kop idol? Carlos Tevez may have waved goodbye to Old Trafford as he was substituted against Arsenal on Saturday. At the age of 25, he has already won 13 major titles here and in South America. Will United fans really be able to cope with seeing him in a Liverpool shirt next season? Wrap up Rio Rio Ferdinand has missed 17 United games since Christmas and there is no chance he will play against Hull next weekend. They will wrap him in cotton wool because they need him if they are to beat Barcelona in Rome.   Changing facesYou will see a much under-strength Manchester United at Hull next Sunday. Their top players have earned a day off. If Phil Brown and his Hull side get a result which sends Newcastle down, that is not Manchester United's fault. Golden boy I wonder whether we will see Cristiano Ronaldo play at Hull. He will be in Sir Alex Ferguson's ear this week because he will want the golden boot for Premier League top scorer. He likes individual awards. Special player Will there ever be another player like Ryan Giggs? That's 11 league titles! His secret is his yoga work-outs that keep him supple. The man is an example to any young aspiring footballer. We'd all like to swap places with him.  ... and the bossFinally, I must mention Sir Alex Ferguson. The man stands over the Premier League like a giant. He saw off Jose Mourinho and stays one step ahead of Arsene Wenger and Rafa Benitez. He's the godfather of football.
