00:00ready Ronnie back out there at Old Trafford today wearing the shirt fans in

00:06the stadium how's it feeling it's always great to go out there it's and say thank

00:11you to all the fans who came out to see us and it's for a good course so it's

00:15but for us it's always nice to go out Old Trafford it's getting very better

00:19but bitch is getting bigger must be how you feeling now you think you feel a

00:24little bit the pitch is big that's for sure but it's nice you know it's in

00:30front of the crowds and it was for a good cause so what was it like being

00:34back in the dressing room with some of these lads because it must have been a

00:36while since you've been around yeah it's it's you know there's a few that you

00:41haven't seen that often of course because they played you know the air

00:45separate times and but you get to know each other and it does go really quick

00:49it's when in the changing room and and you know the atmosphere is there you get

00:54to know everybody very well really quick so that's good you know about all the

00:58pressures of playing center back for Manchester United we brought in a few

01:01new center backs this season if you could give them any advice any tips on

01:05adjusting to life at Manchester night what would they be I think first of all

01:14it's to get the partnerships going to get to know each other in and out you

01:20know on the field out on the field off the field because you need to know how

01:25your partner is reacting to every situation so if you do that and that's

01:29also when you play a few games together and you have you know don't get any

01:33injuries or just so they will they know that so they will if they get to know

01:40each other their partnership will be a really good the documentary the 99 movie

01:45came out recently how was it kind of reliving all those moments and going

01:49through that year all over no it's it's I think everybody was felt a little bit

01:55different me as a player yeah the thing is it took a little bit while to get

02:04back in that because me as a player at that time I was always like forgetting

02:08about the games I played you know everything about the game I've tried to

02:13forget just to don't want me to infect me in such a way so for me I was like I

02:19have to really have to go through everything to just try to remember but

02:24it was nice I have to say it was really nice to kind of watch it back because I

02:27can imagine as a fan I was 10 years old and I was going mental but as someone

02:30that played it and went through it must be easy to kind of miss moments and

02:34forget moments was it great to kind of relive things that yeah that's what it

02:38was it actually was really nice to also for me probably the best was to hear the

02:43other last story how they felt and how they really felt in that moment going

02:52into it and all around so for me it was really interesting to hear the other

02:56guys story so that was the most beautiful thing for one last question

03:00while we're on 99 I've got a mission to get my dad's shirt signed by all the

03:03players would you be happy to put your signature on it amazing thank you

03:21nice I'm Ronnie I appreciate it
