Alex Ferguson News Archives


Sir Alex Ferguson – one of the most successful managers in footballing history, SAF has had 20 years at the top, and what contrasting times they have been – turning the team around in the late 80s before launching an assault on the new Premiership that has led Manchester United to 9 league titles (so far).

Ferguson should be remembered for the collective style his teams employ, attacking and defending in droves and staying disciplined without sacrificing creativity. He will also be remembered for his bustups with some of his best players – it’s a heavy price to pay for greatness, but it’s a price any Manchester United fan would pay.

You can catch a selection of Sir Alex Ferguson’s most famous quotes on the SAF page on Red Rants – the best Manchester United blog around.
