That lad must have been born offside.
Alex Ferguson
The culmination of three trophies was the pinnacle of my career and it has been rewarded with a knighthood.
Alex Ferguson
I have nothing but praise for the boy. He is easily the best player in the world. His contribution as a goal threat is unbelievable. His stats are incredible. Strikes at goal, attempts on goal, raids into the penalty box, headers. It is all there. Absolutely astounding.
Alex Ferguson
Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles.
Alex Ferguson
He's a normal, likable, straightforward boy. (on David Beckham)

The best have the courage and I say this all the time. The courage to take the ball all the time, the courage to make sure that they are not going to be intimidated by their opponents, and the courage to express themselves at all times and I think that all the great players have got that.
Alex Ferguson
The most important thing in a game like that is to win it.
Alex Ferguson

Alex Ferguson
They (the press) have a hatred of Manchester United.
Alex Ferguson
The work of a team should always embrace a great player, but the great player must always work.
Alex Ferguson
I can't believe it. I can't believe it. Football. Bloody hell.
Alex Ferguson
Sometimes you look in a field and you see a cow and you think it's a better cow than the one you've got in your own field. It's a fact. Right? And it never really works out that way.
Alex Ferguson
There are members of the London press who seek to antagonise me, deliberately.
Alex Ferguson
Promise is one thing. Fulfilling that promise is quite another.
Alex Ferguson
I used to have a saying that when a player is at his peak, he feels as though he can climb.
Alex Ferguson
Players know that they can trust me which is really important. They know that I had the ability to adapt to change, and they have seen that many times over the years. I think these are important parts of being in control of footballers.
Alex Ferguson
