David Kelly talks to Brian O'Driscoll, who is desperate to help Leinster into the ranks of Europe's elite this weekend, in The Irish Independent.
"Brian O'Driscoll was looking forward to spending Saturday afternoon in front of the TV. But that was not necessarily how it ultimately panned out.
"Instead of wallowing languorously on the couch as his beloved Manchester United eased to a record league title triumph, Leinster's talisman had to sit bolt upright with his swollen knee swaddled for protection.
"He may have punched the air in delight when United's ascent to English football's perch was confirmed but he dared not dance a jig. Besides, as he watched Alex Ferguson immediately project his mind from this success to Barcelona, so too were O'Driscoll's thoughts already drifting elsewhere."
