If I was a fan of an English club other than Man United, I'm sure I'd have hated him as much as the rest of England - but its impossible not to acknowledge just how influential he was to the clubs he managed.

He also won 2 European titles for them, those were the only times Aberdeen won anything in Europe throughout 121 years history. Ferguson is truly amazing! Pep won with the biggest clubs in the world. Ferguson didn't only win for Man Utd. He won with an Aberdeen side who has barely won anything in their history. In the 7 years he was at Aberdeen, he won 10 trophies.

@@Hoolzz SAF basically brought the 4-2-3-1 into English football when everyone was playing Four-Four-F*cking-Two. Sir Alex always had a withdrawn striker/False nine (Cantona, McClair, Hughes) dropping between the wingers with two midfielders alternating between going forward and holding. When the Class of 92 showed up and they won the treble, he was playing an asymetric 4-2-3-1 with Neville as the right winger because Beckham would often pass from deeper (the attacking RB position), Giggs either going to the byline for a cross while the wing-back Irwin cut in, or him cutting in while Irwin took the width, Keane holding more often than not unless there was a break on, Scholes being the playmaker/scorer next to him, and Cole and Yorke alternating who was the False 9 and who pushed up. He then tried moving to a straight 4-3-3/pure 4-2-3-1 (1 striker, 1 AM) in 2001 by buying Veron, 3 years before Mourinho "brought the 4-3-3 to England." And the 2008 League + Champions League double was one using a mix of 4-3-3, a funky asymetric version, and the insane 4-2-1-3 hybrid of the two. The man was constantly shifting his tactics and players around. He shut Barcelona down over two legs for the 08 victory. The big difference between him and Pep regarding tactics is that Sir Alex preferred letting the players play, compared to Pep's obsession with controlling the game and micromanaging every position and player movement.

Just a small example but SAF basically allowed his coaches to teach a lot of what they wanted to do tactically during training.

In Manchester, growing up, he was seen as a figure of guidance, authority, respect and discipline. He just didn’t tolerate shit. Many will have fallen short of the high mark but he pushed the players and everyone benefitted from this amazing club he built. He was Manchester United. His spirit was incredible.

come on, for the vast majority of his reign he had the #1 budget in England. He had most domestic success during an era where England was absolutely terrible in Europe and at best the 4th best league. The best team before that (Liverpool) was in shambles. Soon as Arsenal then Chelsea got their act together he won only 1 BPL in 5 years. That first period is comparable to Lyon in the 2000s or Bayern last decade. On top of that he was blessed with a crop of young talent that hasnt been rivaled since in the English game and wasnt replicated by himself either. His biggest achievement is actually the latter part of his career between 2007-2013. These 5 titles were won when the BPL was the #1 (2007 - 2008) and #2 (2009-2013) league in Europe, and he combined it with European success. However one shouldnt forget that United was absolutely destroyed by Barça twice. Ferguson was a great manager but to be in the conversation with the likes of Pep or Carlo he needed more European success.

gave the players freedom to play and express themselves is a pretty good tactic and proved very sucessful

THE GOAT.

"You have to treat losing as part of the progress..." - SAF. That's why ETH should be given time to change the mentality and dynamics of the squad.

aberdeen also won against bayern munich in the same european cup winners cup , where they won their first trophy vs Real Madrid. Also, As of 2024, this match remains the last time Real Madrid have lost in any final of a European tournament. Truly amazing.

I'm getting so emotional when I watch those. GGMU!

Best sporting manager of all time not just football

Legend ❤

Remember SAF never been sacked even once in his career.

Took years to build a successful team. These days they sack managers too quickly.

Facts!!

Sir Alex had the astonishing ability to make excellent teams from group of good players. Contrast him with Mourinho who has taken several groups of excellent players and made good teams.

This man is a legend. As a Man u fan I can't help but notice the tiny similarities between him and ETH and how their Manchester united career began. 🧐🤔

Genius❤❤❤

Thanks for making this. WP

The great man

He was a macro scale manager - he organised teams and picked the squad to implement a game plan Current managers are more micro focused - telling every individual their exact role within the system to blend it all together

Good video

I love how football fans are realizing that though pep may have the numbers, but he simply isn't in the list of top 3 managers of all time 🔥

Regardless if you love or hate the man, there's no denying that it was purely due to his relentless drive for success that made United's dominance for 2 decades. Now, 14 years after his retirement, we are seeing why Sir Alex is considered the greatest British manager in living memory? Looking at Pep now reminds me so much Sir Alex, on how to stay consistent and achieve success year after year?

Pep nothing near Sir Alex

When I coached the boys here in Odense some 30 years ago I didn´t have any tactics, nothing preset, no defined approach. Instead I took a look at each and every single player, tried to assess their strengths, their favored style of play and made my "tactical approach" based on what I had to work with, that includes those I deemed to be reserves. I was only there for one season due to personal reasons, had to move. In that season I employed a 3-6-1 which won us the league. Too many managers out there wanting a certain style play which doesn´t suit their current squad at all. But I know, coaching juniors isn´t exactly the same as a top flight challenge.

That's the best way to win junior football. Stacked midfield and a quick striker. The defense doesn't matter because if they bypass the midfielders they score almost 99% of the time unless you're playing a 5 at the back.

One of the greatest man-managers in football history; an absolute titan of a man!

Love you sir Alex

No current manager anywhere in the world comes close to this guy.

Why he was on top is because he changed staff, players everything, he was magic no one could to what he did, him and carlo are the best managers of my generation

Will always be considered the greatest manager of all time and I can't see it changing. Some people falsely say Pep but he took over a Barcelona side with Messi and best players in the world players that were brought up on Cruyff's style and also doped up we know now against us in the finals, then the same with Bayern but he pretty much failed there and at Man city cheating once again even though they were already a winning club with the best players in the world, he has players that can play any position, I believe any decent football fan can do the same things Pep do and until he takes a mid table club like Ferguson did with Aberdeen and Manchester United he will never be compared to Ferguson apart from by young highlight watching stat obsessed social media following football fans but any real supporter who understands the difference in the work they had to put in will know. Ferguson managed and looked after the whole club, had to look after every player, tactics and coaching though he delegated last ten years, and keot every player motivated. All Pep does is say go play good and doesn't even have to man manage as he has so many players and can just sell and buy a player who is unhappy and his whole style is based on Cryuffs and its still not as exciting as Fergusons style of direct attacking, always passing forward, wingers,crossing,aggressive,risky,and never giving in and the way adapted over the years and changed his team is what makes him the best just look at Klopp he couldnt do it or handle it on the pitch or off it and he hardly won anything and if United manager would be considered a failure! Also premiership teams don't bother trying against Man City and just write the game off and get rest but in Europe teams do so City fail there. By far the greatest manager of all time

'Also premiership teams don't bother trying against Man City and just write the game off' that quote seems so true , when united where under Sir Alex everyone wanted to beat them , didn't kevin keegan have a rant about that. the only teams who care to beat city are maybe the top 6 sides

Worst case of brainlessness I have ever seen.

When I see drive and fire like that it hits me hard

how fast time flies

greatest ever and will be. Thank you sir alex ferguson.

Tactics were not as complicated as what they are now. Only very few oppositions bothered Sir Alex enough to adjust his game plan to match the opponent. What he did best was motivate the players to play at their peak in every game consistently.

He won 13 titles with 5 different teams. Fergie was the master of building teams.

I worked with a guy in the NHS who was in the Youth Academy at United, he never made it in professional football. He was at the club in the mid 00s. SAF knew all the academy boys names when he visited.

His recruitment was fantastic. They always got the right players with right attitude.

The last guy to beat Real in a European final the undisputed GOAT

1:55 “The real reason for losing your temper is because of expectation. People say i am ruthless, i’m not ruthless. I’m doing my job for Manchester United.”

Ferguson adapted to the game tactical requirement while adding his interpersonal touch and make players give 150%. That is what he does in a nutshell. He is always outmaneuvered by new tactic revolutionaries like Wenger and Mourinho but ended up winning against them by adapting to how they play.

Why so many hate in the comments? Cant those haters just appreciate SAF’s success?

Sir Alex can adapt to changes and that was his main strength.Moreover,his power to read his opponent and tweak his system to exploit any weakness is second to none.

Definitely a bait title and I'm glad it hooked me in. Cracking video

The greatest manager to ever live

Tactically speaking, Ferguson always build partnership of 2 players or more on the field. You may see it but rarely understand it. Beckham - Gary Neville are a right side overlap combination. Its Gary job to make sure Beckham always have room for crosses. Scholes-Carrick also a solid partnership example. Carrick is the one who protects Scholes so he can rule the game freely. Cole and Yorke is telepathic duo. Scholes and Keane combo is unbeaten against any 4-4-2. Scholes-Cantona, Rio-Vidic, Nistelrooy-Beckham, Nistelrooy-Scholes, and finally trio Cristiano-Rooney-Teves can secure 2nd Champions League medal for him. Thats why he can always survive when a player leave, even Superstar player. because he still maintain other partnership combination setup on the field to make sure the team doesnt lose identity. thats why Ferguson doesnt have tactic named after him. because he micromanaging his team tactic.

Arsenal fan here. I always hated him for sporting reasons. But undoubtedly he is the best manager of all time. He did everything from scratch and dominant across 4 decades against all sort of ideology change the game has witnessed. There will be none like him. Guardiola is great, but cannot pitch him above SAF

the Legend of the game

One of one can't replicate or replace him

The greatest user of the power of friendship

Wish we could have him back 😢
