Sir Alex Ferguson - 20 godina

Povodom dvadesete godi?njice vođenja Manchester Uniteda koja je u ponedjeljak, evo nekih izjava slavnog managera:

"You're a fuckin' bottler Incey! You cannae handle the stage, can you? You are a fuckin' bottler!"
* Alex Ferguson to Paul Ince at half-time, Barcelona, 1994.

"I can't believe it. I can't believe it. Football. Bloody hell."
* Alex Ferguson after winning the European Cup on May 26th, 1999.

"I thought the first 45 minutes were the best of my time as a manager."
* Alex Ferguson after United had come back from 2-0 down to beat Juventus 3-2 in Turin, Italy in what was later heralded as one of the greatest comebacks in sporting history.

"That's bollocks!"
* Sir Alex Ferguson after beating FA Premier League champions Chelsea FC 1-0 on November 6th 2005 when asked if the previous week where Manchester United had endured much criticism was the worst week of his career.

"At the end of this game, the European Cup will be only six feet away from you and you'll not even able to touch it if we lose. And for many of you that will be the closest you will ever get. Don't you dare come back in here without giving your all".
* Alex Ferguson's half time team talk during the 1999 European Cup Final

"My greatest challenge is not what's happening at the moment, my greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their fucking perch. And you can print that."
* Sir Alex Ferguson responding to Alan Hansen questioning Sir Alex Ferguson's future as Manchester United manager in September 2002 in the Guardian.

"Just fucking patch him up"
* Sir Alex Ferguson to a club physio after kicking a boot at David Beckham's head which left him needing stitches above his eye.

"On you go. I?m no fucking talking to you. He?s a fucking great player. Yous are fucking idiots."
* Sir Alex Ferguson speaking to the media about Juan Sebastian Veron

"I am such a bloody talented guy. I might go into painting or something like that."

"They say he?s an intelligent man, right? Speaks five languages! I?ve got a 15-year-old boy from the Ivory Coast who speaks five languages!"
* Sir Alex Ferguson on Arsene Wenger

"It is totally out of the question. There is no way we would sell him, or any of our best players"
* Sir Alex Ferguson before selling David Beckham 12th April 2003

"What the fuck are you lot playing at? That is the biggest load of shite I?ve ever seen. Not one of you can look me in the eye, because not one of you deserves to have a say. I can?t believe you?ve come here and decided to toss it off like that crap you?re playing out there."
* Half-time at Sheffield Wednesday, 1998.

"If he was an inch taller he'd be the best centre half in Britain. His father is 6ft 2in - I'd check the milkman."
* Sir Alex Ferguson on Gary Neville

"When an Italian tells me its pasta on the plate I check under the sauce to make sure"

Fergie's Finest


The Axe is Wielded - Old Trafford booze culture curtailed
Sir Alex Ferguson inherited a set of players on his Old Trafford arrival that were gifted, but it's fair to say, also partial to the odd pint. While Ferguson has always encouraged a strong bonding between his charges, he felt there were too many disruptive influences in the dressing room and as a result, the axe was wielded for the first, if not the last time. Self-confessed chief offenders Norman Whiteside and Paul McGrath were shown the door, despite the fact they were both firm fans' favourites. History would later repeat itself.

Robins Saves Bacon - Mark Robins' winner against Nottingham Forest
The Scot had been at the Old Trafford helm for three trophy-less seasons in 1990 and with the noose tightening, a trip to high-flying Nottingham Forest for an FA Cup clash was the last thing he would have asked for. The general consensus is that had United been knocked out at the third round stage, at the City Ground, Ferguson would have been sacked. Proverbial predator Mark Robins did his boss a huge favour by grabbing a winner and, as they say, the rest is history.

An Unlikely Hero - Lee Martin downs Eagles
Ferguson's love affair with the FA Cup started in 1990 and it's no surprise he has affection for football's oldest trophy, given the fact it kept him in work. After an epic final against Crystal Palace, that ended in a 3-3 draw, the replay manifested the most unlikely of heroes as Lee Martin smashed home a fine winner to earn his manager the first of 19 major trophies.


Cantona the Red - Eric arrives in Manchester
When Eric Cantona swapped Yorkshire for Lancashire there were more than a few eyebrows raised but not from the man who brought him to Manchester. The precociously talented Frenchman arrived with a reputation for trouble that more than matched his pedigree as a player, but what followed has been well documented. Cantona was the final piece in Ferguson's jigsaw and few would dispute he is the greatest signing United have made in the past 20 years.

26 Years of Hurt - Fergie delivers the title
Prior to United's success in 1993 and the last time the title had been delivered to the red side of Manchester was 1967. The manner in which United claimed the silverware was exhilarating and in many respects set the standard for what was to come. What followed established Ferguson as a true managerial great and the next decade firmly belonged to the Scot.

Old School Banished - Ince, Hughes and Kanchelskis all shown the exit door
In the summer of 1995 changes were afoot following the previous season's collapse. The club's senior statesmen Paul Ince, Mark Hughes and Andrei Kanchelskis were all off-loaded and the fans threatened mutiny. A poll in the Manchester Evening News decreed that Fergie must go. He stayed, Fergie's fledglings emerged, and a new era at the club was ushered in.

A Stroke of Fortune - Fergie's fledgling emerge
There can be no doubting Ferguson's pedigree but even he would concede that the crop of youngsters that emerged in the mid-nineties were something special. David Beckham, Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Phil Neville and Nicky Butt all came through at the same time and effectively formed the backbone in which Ferguson created his next, and perhaps, best side. All five went on to establish themselves as top class internationals and in the case of Beckham and Scholes, as two of the finest of their generation.

The Wenger Years - They love each other really
When Arsenal's studious Frenchman arrived in North London there seemed little chance he would fast become Ferguson's greatest ever rival. The two are alike only in that they are great winners and, whisper it quietly, bad losers. There is no love lost between the Premiership's finest two tacticians and long may it continue. Would we have it any other way?

Ole Ole Ole! - Ole Gunnar's magic moment
To be called a truly great club manager the European Cup has to be part of your CV and in 1999, in completing an historic treble, Ferguson enjoyed his finest moment. Shorn of his midfield generals Paul Scholes and Roy Keane through suspension and a goal down closing on the last few minutes, United looked as though they had blown their sojourn to Barcelona. A tactical masterclass, though, saved the day as two substitutes etched their place in United folklore and in the process heaped misery on Bayern Munich. Teddy Sheringham grabbed the first, then Ole Gunnar Solskaer evoked memories of the team of Charlton, Best and Law with a dramatic winner.

Beckham Bust-up - Only one man rules Old Trafford
Ferguson has always ruled Old Trafford with the proverbial iron first and, as David Beckham will testify, he is not shy to put his point across. After a below par display against Arsenal in 2003, Ferguson went ballistic in the dressing room and in the ensuing rage a stray boot flew in the air before connecting just above Beckham's eye. Known to be exasperated by his showbiz lifestyle, Ferguson sold his highest profile player in the summer to Real Madrid. The sale of Whiteside and McGrath, then Ince and pals, showed Fergie is no sentimentalist and ever since he has been ruthless in the transfer market. Ruud van Nistelrooy and Roy Keane have both since followed Beckham out of the door marked exit.

The Future - United to regain Premiership title?
United have started the present campaign in an imperious fashion and while Chelsea remain favourites to retain the title, few would back against Ferguson's side from being their closest contenders. In Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo United possess two of the brightest talents in world football and in Ferguson, the ideal man to improve them. The future looks bright - for the next 20 years at least.

Fergie trivia

His house in Wilmslow, Cheshire is named "Fairfields" after the Clydeside shipyard his father worked in. Ferguson followed his Dad by working as an apprentice toolmaker and later a shop steward.

Football teams were one area that Alex's father did not influence him in. His dad supported Celtic, however, Fergie was a big Rangers fan and would later go on to play for them.

Ferguson was made the scapegoat for Rangers 4-0 defeat by Celtic in the 1969 Scottish Cup final. The manager blamed him for bad marking at a corner even though he was a centre-forward!

When he finished his playing career he became a pub landlord.

One of his hobbies is music. He is learning to play the piano in his spare time.

He holidays every summer in the south of France.

Fergie is fond of wine and is said to have an extensive cellar in his house.

Sir Alex is a Scottish Socialist and strong supporter of the Labour party and Tony Blair.

Fergie owns several racehorses and regularly watches them in action.

When he gets angry he shouts at players close to their face - it is called "the hairdryer treatment".

His son Darren played a few times for United in the early 1990's. He now plays for Wrexham.

He was appointed caretaker manager of Scotland following death of Jock Stein during the 1985 Wales v Scotland World Cup qualifier and managed them in the 1986 World Cup in Mexico.

Fergie was voted the 'Best Coach' in Europe at the 1999 UEFA Football Awards and received the BBC Sports Personality Lifetime Achievement award in 2001.

He is a Freeman of Manchester, Glasgow and Aberdeen.

Sir Alex Ferguson is the most successful manager in British football history with 14 major trophies in England, not to mention the trophies he won at Aberdeen.

He has won five FA Cup Finals - no other manager has achieved this in England.

Last season was Ferguson's 32nd consecutive in football management and his 20th at United.

United fan's sing: "Now every single one of us, loves Alex Ferguson"

United fan's also sing when United are comfortably cruising to victory: "Fergie, give us a wave, Fergie, Fergie give us a wave!!!"

P.S. Ne sjećam se gdje je tocno bilo, mozda post Dnevnik... Kad je Nikola komentirao signature. Al ajde kad smo vec tu. Svaka cast Herriju, treba se toga sjetit. Naime ja ga nisam savjetovao da ju stavi u pozadinu, reko sam mu da je bilo kakava pozadina ok, ali bas sam mu nedavno pricao o Arii kako ja nju volim i to, pa je valjda on pomislio da ce mi se jako svijdet ako ju stavi za pozadinu i naravno bio je u pravu. Treba imat smisla za takve stvari. Zivio Herri!

Rlija se bas potrudio napisati sve o Sir Alexu!!!
