Man Utd boss Ferguson: Just call me PHENOMENON!
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has dubbed himself a "phenomenon".
Ferguson described himself as a phenom in an interview with the New York Times.
He has been in charge at Old Trafford for 25 years, and when asked if anyone would repeat that feat, Ferguson said: "I don't think so. I'm a phenomenon."
"They are cocooned by modern ideas, modern parents, modern agents, and they are cocooned by their own image at times.
"It's a different world for me, so I have to change myself to adapt to that. I have changed because of these things.
"One thing I've learned in the last decade is delegation. In the early days, I was involved with scouting, coaching, youth everything. You can't do that for a long period of time."He continued: "I have certainly mellowed. There's no question about that. It's a more fragile human being that I am dealing with today than 25 years ago.

Hi there just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your post seem to be running off the screen in Safari. I'm not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I figured I'd post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem resolved soon. Cheers
pep is no where near him, how hard is it to do well in a two team joke "league" where two teams take and spend all the money while operating at record debts and having to beg banks just to pay wages!
Also in regards to pep
claim how great he is when he's built 2-3 teams!
