More quotes by 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
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
Never give in or give up easily on a cause.
Alex Ferguson
I've never played for a draw in my life.

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
I remember the first time I saw him. He was 13 and just floated over the ground like a cockier spaniel chasing a piece of silver paper in the wind.
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
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
I'm-A-God-Look-At-Me.
Alex Ferguson
David impresses by his example on the field. He never stops running, he plays with supreme confidence, he always tries his hardest and he scores important goals. (on David Beckham)
Alex Ferguson
In any normal season, most of the teams below Chelsea would think they are doing quite well.
Alex Ferguson
Promise is one thing. Fulfilling that promise is quite another.
Alex Ferguson
You can't applaud a referee.
Alex Ferguson
Evolution happens. There's no football team in the world that has stayed together for time ever more.
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
I do like to try and see myself in football players. Everybody is different and express themselves in different ways. There are different kinds of talents of course and there are many who I would never have had the talent that they have when I was a player. But I still had that determination to be successful and try my best.
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
Distinguish between power and control, delegate, be decisive - and always remember people's first names.
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
