Football management is such a pressurized thing - horse racing is a release. I'm also learning to play the piano - I'm quite determined - it's another release from the pressure of my job.

More quotes by Alex Ferguson
That lad must have been born offside.
Alex Ferguson
Cole should be scoring from those distances, but I'm not going to single him out.
Alex Ferguson
You can't applaud a referee.
Alex Ferguson
I understand the intensity of the supporters. I wonder how they could turn up for work on Monday morning after we lost 5-1 to Manchester City.
Alex Ferguson
Lampard, for me, was a marvellous servant for Chelsea, but I didn't think of him as an elite international footballer. And I am one of the few who felt Gerrard was not a top, top player.
Alex Ferguson
If you were in a game of football always think you need maybe eight to win the game. Three can on an off day or semi off day but you always hard. And the players recognize that and they'll do that extra to make sure they get winning. The essence of the team is to understand and trust each other and to trust me.
Alex Ferguson
Never give in or give up easily on a cause.
Alex Ferguson
To not apologize for the behavior of the players to another manager is unthinkable. It's a disgrace, but I don't expect Wenger to ever apologize...he's that type of person.
Alex Ferguson
In any normal season, most of the teams below Chelsea would think they are doing quite well.
Alex Ferguson
Liverpool can play for only five minutes and win the game, that is the way they are. They pump the ball into the box and with good set-piece delivery they keep you under pressure.
Alex Ferguson
Sometimes you're not sure about a player. Sometimes you doubt. Sometimes you have to guess. Sometimes you just know.
Alex Ferguson
He's a novice - he should keep his opinions to Japanese football
Alex Ferguson
Gianfranco Zola once sent Gary Pallister the wrong way to such an extent that he needed a ticket to get back in.
Alex Ferguson
Go make your mistakes in the first team. You'll learn more in a month in the first team than you will in two years in the reserves.
Alex Ferguson
He is improving all the time. He is only 21 and who knows what he is capable of. (on Cristiano Ronaldo)
Alex Ferguson
I tried it 100 or a million times it couldn't happen again. If I could, I would have carried on playing.
Alex Ferguson
I was doing all the coaching schools so that I'd be able to stay in the game, and I gave myself a chance by doing that. I was only an average player, could score a goal or two, that sort of thing, but I wasn't a Bobby Charlton or a Messi, or Ronaldo. There are very, very few really great players who have become great coaches.
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
My greatest challenge is not what's happening at the moment, my greatest challenge was knocking Liverpool right off their f*****g perch. And you can print that.
Alex Ferguson
Football, bloody hell!
