Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is delighted with the loyalty shown by his players.

Ferguson believes the commitment of the senior players helps set the club apart.

"There's no club in the world who can keep players the length of time we've kept the likes of Giggsy, Scholesy, Rio Ferdinand, Gary Neville. For years and years," he said.

"In my time there's been, I think, 10 testimonials. No club can do that.

"Players stay at Manchester United. They love staying at Manchester United.

"They ingrain themselves in the whole bloody place."
