“It was always a wish for me to work in the Premier League. To work as a manager for Manchester United, the biggest club in the world, makes me very proud.

“I never worried about teams who spend what they want to spend. It never bothered me. At the moment we have a lot of Middle Eastern owners, we have American owners of course, Russian owners. It never bothered me one bit. All I was concerned about was that we at United maintained our level of expectation, be competitive, be at the top part of the Premier League.” WantMomentsCoursesBitsLevelsUnitedTeamMiddleExpectationsConcernedWorriedLeagueOwnersEasternBotheredPremier League Author:Alex Ferguson

“Is this good for English football? In the short run, Chelsea's rise has broken up what was turning into an irritating Arsenal-Manchester United duopoly. But football leagues (look at Scotland, look at Spain) can get along OK with duopolies. A monopoly, however, is a disaster. Everyone else in the Premiership has to operate on some kind of business footing, and the terror stalking Highbury and Old Trafford is that Chelsea will be immune from financial discipline forever.” LooksKindRunningUnitedForeverFootballBrokenDisciplineFinancialTerrorDisasterSoccerAnalysisLeagueScotlandSpainMonopolyImmuneStalkingManchesterArsenalIrritatingChelseaManchester UnitedBroken UpEnglish FootballFinancial Discipline Author:Matthew Engel

“How were friendship possible? In mutual devotedness to the good and true; otherwise impossible, except as armed neutrality or hollow commercial league.

“I think what's surprised me most about the club is to feel that wherever you go, even when you go on holiday to a quiet place, you always find Man Utd supporters. It's something that you do not expect in some countries, yet we have them all around the world. Manchester United is a special and unique club because of its history. No-one has won as many trophies as we have in the English league. That history is something that you cannot buy.
