The England midfielder was thrilled to mark his debut season at the club by getting his hands on the Champions League trophy - for a second time - and the league championship title.

He said: "I'm sure the boss will look at things again in the summer and see what we need to do to improve, because we can always improve."

Hargreaves showed a cool head to score in the dramatic penalty shoot-out victory against Chelsea in Moscow seven years on from winning the cup with Bayern Munich.

Hargreaves, who left Germany in the summer, added: "That's why I came here to United.

"Some people were saying it was about the money - which it was never about.

"I wanted to be part of something special. Most of the pieces were in place to do that but I knew I could be a good addition to the squad.

"I really thought we could achieve great things at this club.

"At the beginning of the season we said we wanted to win the league and we wanted to win the Champions League.

"You hear big teams say that quite a lot, but to actually do it is quite an achievement."
