The old and the young

  • Gary Neville was asked just before Wembley's final against Barcelona : ... if Alex Ferguson “retire at the top” if he would beat Barcelona in the Champions League final. He said Ferguson does not think this way. It is not about “goals”. If it was about goals he could have gone in 1993, 1996, 1999, 2008… take you pick. The 19th title could have been a bench mark too.
  • And Eric Cantona, also this season, referred to something else. He said he found it amazing how Ferguson relates to players now 40-50 years younger than him. You know what? maybe generational gap is overrated. Maybe some things don’t change.
For me ...I find it incredible that a manager almost 70 signs and upgreade players almost 18,19 and 20 years old .Take  De Gea for example , will become the polished article in 3-4 years time. For Ferguson it’s about challenge and belief. Not planning his own biography
  • Ferguson once said that he liked working with youngsters because they have no fear. Well, with a considerable overhaul taking place at Old Trafford, the old man don’t seem to be too afraid either..."Managing my Life"
