Owen Hargreaves:
"Sven is a fantastic manager. I appreciated his support of me when, at times, other people possibly didn't agree. He believed in me and he showed faith in me and I tried to repay that back at the World Cup.
"But City and United are two very different clubs and so are their ambitions. Sven has great potential there and I wish him all the best, but United are in a league of their own and I am focused on getting us clear of the pack early on."
