An incredible period in my life' - what are your best Van der Sar memories?

Edwin van der Sar looks back on his “incredible” six-year spell at Manchester United, a period he said arrived during the later stage of his career after joining at age 34. Speaking on the latest episode of The Wayne Rooney Show on BBC Sounds, the former Netherlands goalkeeper highlighted a trophy haul that included four Premier League titles, the Champions League, and two League Cups. He described the role of authority at the back, saying the manager asked for composure when building from behind and for the back four to provide leadership. Van der Sar also pointed to the squad’s evolution, noting Rio Ferdinand, Nemanja Vidić’s arrival, and Patrice Evra joining later. He credited Sir Alex Ferguson’s assembly of a Champions League-winning side through “three or four pieces,” blending youth, energy, Wayne Rooney, and Cristiano Ronaldo.
