Michael Ballack admits Manchester United wanted him but said they “weren’t good enough” 
Speaking exclusively in the April 2013 issue ofFourFourTwo, the 36-year-old admits it was a decision based on ambition with the Blues on a seemingly upward curve.
"Yes, Manchester United wanted me, and it's a good question [why he chose Chelsea].
"They came before Chelsea, but I didn't have discussions with Sir Alex Ferguson.
"At the time United were not really good in the Champions League – they had gone out in the first round that year.

"But Chelsea were growing really quickly. I wanted to be a part of this. I saw we could reach something really big in the next few years."
Paul Marin -19 is one thing, 20 is a whole other matter. It gets even worse if they win the UCL. *groan*.
