Man Utd legend Yorke: Ferguson can admit he's wrong

Manchester United legend Dwight Yorke has spoken of being on the receiving end of the hairdryer treatment from Sir Alex Ferguson.

Yorke told TalkSport: "It's not pleasant. You know at some stage it will come to you. All of us are not perfect in there and I would think that every Man United player who's been through it has come across it at some stage. If it's once or twice but you just do not enjoy it when it comes your way.

"I'm sure he probably does (admits he's wrong) behind closed doors and that's the great thing about him and that's why he is such a great manager as well. He doesn't have to do it in front of everybody. I'm sure he's man enough to know when he's done wrong and he does it in a very professional way.

"He will call you in and say, 'yeah, I probably was (wrong)' and I think that's the difference with him and many other managers out there and that's why I call him the boss of all bosses."
