Each week, voters spotlight a football club that deserves a mention. This week's team is ... Manchester United. By United's standards fifth place on the Top 10 represents underachievement. The Red Devils may have regained the Premier League title from Arsenal but they looked out of their depth in their Champions League quarterfinal exit against Real Madrid. The loss of David Beckham to the Spanish giant appears to be another blow to United's prestige. But Sir Alex Ferguson has cash to spend: Cameroon midfielder Eric Djemba Djemba has already arrived from Nantes while Brazilian forward Ronaldinho appears to be the club's main target. But can United recover from the loss of its biggest star to one of its biggest international rivals?
