It’s simply impossible not to think about Sir Alex Ferguson when it comes to thinking about Manchester United.

The Scotsman was the person who brought so much success to United, and dedicated his life to the club for 27 years, even after being on the brink of being sacked in 1989.

In his 27 years with the Red Devils, his achievements are endless. He won 13 Premier League titles, 5 FA Cups, 4 League Cups and 2 Champions League trophies.

And in addition to that, he did a good job individually too, winning the LMA Manager of the Year award 4 times, the Premier League Manager of the season award 11 times and the UEFA Manager of the Year award once.

He is not only something that springs to mind when It comes to just Manchester United either. When mentioning the Premier League, you can’t help but think of the Scotsman, who has been the greatest manager the league has ever seen.

Even with how the Premier League evolutionized, not once did he fall out of touch with the game. He learned how to combine flair from the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo with versatile players like Park Ji Sung and never lost the respect of his team, always keeping the togetherness.

He is a legend of the game, and will live on in the memories of United fans for many years to come.
