Fergie gives himself another three years max at Man Utd

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson reckons he has another two or three years left at Old Trafford and is determined to leave on a high. "I think you always want to go out on a winning note," said the 70 year old to BBC Radio Five.

"Hopefully we can do that. I don't know how long I can last now but if my health stays up I don't think another two or three years would harm me any."

And, while he insists there is no other role for him directly involved in football after he leaves his Old Trafford post, he has no plans to fade into the background.

"I would definitely finish - but I would remain active," he added.

"I think there would be a role at United after I finish."
