More quotes by Alex Ferguson
It's a conflict of parallels.
Alex Ferguson
But there is always that unpredictability about a derby match and that's what it was today.
Alex Ferguson
I think his team are mirroring Stuart Pearce as the player he was. (on Manchester City)
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
We once went 13 games without winning. There's always pressure here. Winning is always important here. How do you handle yourself and compose yourself is important. (on Manchester United)
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
They had Jan Venegoor of...whatever you call him.
Alex Ferguson
I realized I was good at developing young people. Eventually I started to believe in young people. I think when you give a young person an opportunity, he always believes who gave him his first chance. You create a loyalty that lasts a lifetime.
Alex Ferguson
You are not going to be happy if you lose to a goal in the last minute. It is difficult to take and difficult to get out of your mind.
Alex Ferguson
Attack wins you games, defence wins you titles.
Alex Ferguson
He's such a great threat because of his power and pace. (on Cristiano Ronaldo)
Alex Ferguson
Everyone remembers Stuart Pearce as a determined, aggressive player, who played with great heart and enthusiasm that gave him a great career in the game.
Alex Ferguson
We are very focused this time and our preparation has been better. We maybe made one or two mistakes last time, but not this time.
Alex Ferguson
The pace of the game demanded a referee who was fit. It is an indictment of our game. You see referees abroad who are as fit as butcher's dogs. We have some who are fit. He wasn't fit.
Alex Ferguson
Ronaldo could play for Millwall, QPR, Doncaster Rovers or anyone and he'd score a hat-trick. I'm not sure Messi could do it. Ronaldo's got two feet, he's quick, he's good in the air and he's brave, though Messi's brave too of course. I just think Messi is a Barcelona player.
Alex Ferguson
I'm privileged to have followed Sir Matt because all you have to do is to try and maintain the standards that he set so many years ago.
Alex Ferguson
It was our worst-ever day, the worst result in my history, ever. Even as a player I don't think I ever lost 6-1.
Alex Ferguson
Everest in his slippers. That's what he was like.
Alex Ferguson
Everywhere I go the coaches all tell me that Scholsey is the player they admire. But if they think they'll get him they're wasting their time! Paul is a Manc lad pure and simple. He loves the club and there's no chance of him leaving here. If ever he decided to go there would be a stampede, but he won't be going, he's here for life.
Alex Ferguson
Keeping players happy is not easy and I think anyone with a big squad will tell you that.
