Queiroz: Happy at Old Trafford
Carlos Queiroz has indicated that he would like to become Manchester United manager by declaring that he wants to stay at Old Trafford for another decade.
The Portuguese tactician has been Sir Alex Ferguson's assistant for five years in two separate spells.
Ferguson has yet to decide when he will step down but Queiroz, who has managerial experience with Real Madrid, believes he will have age and experience on his side when that time does arrive.
"I came here with a set of well defined functions which I carry out today and which I can do in the future," he told the News of the World.
"The conditions are here for me to stay another eight or 10 years.
"Sir Alex is happy, I'm happy, the Glazers are happy.
"If they think I should stay on, it is up to them. I've got extremely comfortable conditions in Manchester."
Queiroz has been linked with the role of Portugal coach but he claims he would not want to be considered.
"No Portuguese coach should ignore that possibility but I'm not offering myself," he said.
"Nor will I be available at any price."
Good news imho.......the attacking style football should continue....
Also...it should give him enough time to buy the entire Potugal national time.....
