Famous Alex Ferguson Quotes

“I do like to try and see myself in football players. Everybody is different and express themselves in different ways.

His contribution and quality have been great, even without the fantastic goals he has scored. [ . . . ] He has that wonderful velvet touch on the ball. When he gets it, it goes stone dead. It is wonderful to see that amidst all the mayhem that can happen in a football match.”
