He was certainly full of it, calling me “Boss” and “Big Man” when we had our post-match drink after the first leg. But it would help if his greetings were accompanied by a decent glass of wine. What he gave me was paint-stripper.” (Ferguson’s first impressions of Jose Mourinho) He was towering over me and the other players were almost covering their eyes. I’m looking up and thinking ‘if he does hit me, I’m dead” (On a dressing room disagreement with Peter Schmeichel)

Wayne is truly blessed. He doesn’t just have ability, he has a fire inside him.’ (After Rooney joined United in 2004) Di bawah asuhan Sir Alex, MU menjelma menjadi klub yang ditakuti dan produktif mencetak juara di berbagai kompetisi dan terus langganan juara sampai 26 tahun kariernya memanajeri MU. Dari semua prestasi yang diraih ini tak heran bila gelar "manajer terhebat dalam sejarah sepak bola Britania" layak disandangkan padanya. This book is not organized as I thought it would be. For a few chapters he would talk about football, and the next, he talks about family followed by a few more chapters on football. Chapters 8 and 9 are dedicated to Cristiano Ronaldo and Roy Keane, in chapter 10 he talks about wine and horse racing followed by chapter 11 which is about Ruud van Nistelrooy. In a chapter about Jose Mourinho, he talks more about his own players than he talks about Mourinho himself Ferguson writes that he found the wine appalling at Stamford Bridge and he told Roman Abramovich so. The following week, he took delivery of a case of Tignanello from the Russian. But the chapter veers away from Mourinho, as Ferguson discusses a range of topics from George Best to the desire of Nemanja Vidic to enlist for the Kosovo conflict and his personal transfer errors, chief among them Kieran Richardson, Eric Djemba-Djemba, William Prunier and Ralph Milne. There had been expectation that Ferguson would discuss why he did not advance Mourinho as his Old Trafford successor, but there is no mention of the subject in this chapter. DH The Pizzagate match at Old Trafford "scrambled Arsène's brain" If you're a Manchester United fan, read this book. If you're a Liverpool or Manchester City fan, read this book. If you're a football fan regardless of the team you support, READ THIS BOOK

I think he was an angry man. He must have been disturbed for some reason. I think you have got to cut through the venom of it and hopefully he’ll reflect and understand what he said was absolutely ridiculous.’ (On Benitez) intellectual property. If you would like to use material from the book (other than for review purposes), prior So no doubt people are going to think me a Man U supporter for having read Alex Ferguson's autobiography. No, no, no. I would like to point out I go for a rather sad club, one that is very well supported but are run more like a comedy club than anything else. Yes, I support the Toon and unless Sheikh-el-Billionaire comes in and buys out that clown Mike Ashley, we'll never win a damn thing! At least our jail-bird shirts look cool, eh? ;) If I have my health I can carry on. There will be a point when I do quit but I have absolutely no idea when that is.”

Ferguson is the longest serving manager of Manchester United, overtaking Sir Matt Busby's record on 19 December 2010, eventually completing more than 26-and-a-half years as the club's manager. He has won many awards and holds many records including winning Manager of the Year most times in British football history. In 2008, he became the third British manager to win the European Cup on more than one occasion. He was knighted in 1999 for his services to the game and also holds the Freedom of the City of Aberdeen. I used to have a saying that when a player is at his peak, he feels as though he can climb Everest in his slippers. That’s what he was like.” (On Paul Ince) He has gone out in a blaze of glory, with United winning the Premier League for the 13th time, and he is widely considered to be the greatest manager in the history of British soccer. Over the last quarter of a century there have been seismic changes at Manchester United, with the only constant element the quality of the manager's league-winning squad and United's run of success, which included winning the Champions League for a second time in 2008. Sir Alex created a purposeful, but welcoming, and much envied culture at the club which has lasted the test of time. The book details certain players and events in Sir Alex's managerial career. Although not chronological this is a fascinating insight to one of the most successful mangers ever. Mixed within the fact and opinions about Manchester United are antidotes and facts that will keep any football fan interested irregardless of which team you support. Buku ini ditulis sendiri oleh Sir Alex. Maka jangan kaget ketika mendapati urutan cerita yang diramu suka-suka ala Fergie. Di buku ini Sir Alex membawa pembaca untuk berpetualang masuk ke dalam serpihan-serpihan kenangannya saat membina MU dari tahun 1986 hingga 2013.Jose understands winning and losing are twins in a way. When you win you don’t gloat and when you lose you don’t go bananas.” (On Mourinho)
