How Sir Alex Ferguson Rebuilt Manchester United

- Sir Alex Ferguson and Manchester United. The most intimidating string of words in all of English football for a period spanning almost 3 decades.
Sir Alex is the greatest manager of all time in my opinion, and that statement is the furthest thing from controversial I can think of.
He guided Manchester United to 13 premier league trophies, famously knocking Liverpool off their perch and winning 49 trophies in total when it was all said and done.
Today's video is part two of a previous video I've made detailing Manchester United's incredible treble win. The period from 1999 to 2013 is our focus here.
So, without further ado, how Did Sir Alex Ferguson create and recreate Manchester United's incomparable football dynasty?

The fact that he won a league title with Jones, Smalling and Young makes him an elite manager. The Greatest Manager football has ever seen
Were they regular starters tho? Vidic, Ferdinand, Rooney and RVP were all still at the club
Pep Could never
@@ped09576 Vidic was injured most of the 12-13 season. So yes Smalling and Jones were regulars alongside Ferdinand.
@@taliamason7986 Jones was still solid before injuries
@@taliamason7986 smalling?? The guy who was in top5 combined team of the week 🙃
Nobody can rebuild championship winning team after championship winning team like SAF! Greatest manager of all time with absolute ease!
Not even Guardiola can top that
@@lexkanyima2195 fax
No he is not greatest manager of all time
@@Sonicboom726 don who's
The amazing thing was that he could take mid players and know perfectly what they were good at and how to use them. He could coach anyone and make them better.
I get Ferguson broke records at United but I feel his work at Aberdeen is criminally overlooked.
Man won agaisnt both Real Madrid and Bayern Munich with Aberdeen, if that isn't incredible, damn.
I think that’s why he’s top of list for managers. Even pep can never beat this guy no matter how long he’s coach cause you don’t see pep managing a semi pro team
@@Al-oe7md thats why i regard pep and jose above pep.
@@Al-oe7mdPep would fail at smaller clubs MISERABLY because he wouldn't have the calibre of player to play his style so he would need a massive cheque book and rarely develops youth players.
@Al-oe7md lost 2 finals against Pep the real 🐐
I don’t think anyone can compare to sir Alex Ferguson when it comes to man management.The fact that he took Aberdeen from not winning any league titles to breaking the Rangers/Celtic Dominance to winning the league and the Cup Winners Cup against Real Madrid
don't forget that Aberdeen also beat Bayern Munich in the quarter-finals
Agreed. Sir Alex Ferguson is an exceptional manager and managers dream to be like him one day.
I would like to thank him to gift us with a shining gem in the form of Cristiano Ronaldo who helped us reach new levels Europe.
Aberdeen were also a semi-pro team at that time if I am correct
@@BPLRClubs yeah because in his documentary on prime he said they used the local park pitch and the beach to train
@@BPLRClubsthat is right he got to turn professional inside 18 months read his first biography managing my life.
Greatest manager of all time.
The only one who comes close IMO is Brian Clough
@@AmirulMokhris with a very good squad tho.
@@AmirulMokhris Sir Alex won 2 and 13 Premier leagues with 2-3 differently built teams and adapted to every opponent that came up (wengers arsenal and jose’s chelsea for prime examples)
@@AmirulMokhris with a team was was built by mourinho
@@AmirulMokhris Zidane is shit compared to Sir Alex also if Zidane is so good then why did he resign for Real Madrid and why have no clubs come up to try and sign him also Zidane hasn’t won 49 trophies. Zidane is nothing compared to SAF.
He rebuilt the team while staying in the top 3. Greatest manager to ever live
“The man the myth the legend ,Sir Alex Ferguson
The impossible dream made possible. The greatest manager of all time. Sir Alex Ferguson
Glazers in
Sir Alex is the undisputed GOAT of football managers. 27 years at the top. Remarkable. Btw, Great content as always. A bit surprised that you're still at 80k subs. You'll get there 👍
Yeah its unbelievable he hasnt passed the 100k mark.. the quality is always top class
27 years at the top???? How did you arrive at that figure? Complete myth.
@@bryanbelshaw7725 It's obvious mate if you're butthurt cuz he knocked your ass of your perch, keep moaning cuz that's all you can do 🤷♂️
@@bryanbelshaw7725 you’re right, it was 33. Breaking the Celtic Rangers deadlock in Scottish football in 1980 and winning his last PL title in 2013.
33 years, he also managed a scottish club and won the league with them, knocking Celtic off their fucking perch
This is just like a career mode save
Basically 😂
I am a Liverpool fan and for me Sir Alex is the greatest manager of all time because he doesn’t need splashed cash to create legendary players and he’s very consistent with championships players and won many titles
His best signings were due to smart scouting, like Schmeichel and Pallister. His trust in the academy puts pretty much everyone who isn't Van Gaal and Wenger to shame, too.
Honestly Klopp is simailar in that area just less succesful
@@dxrk7 klopp is good but no way near consistent.
@@dxrk7 in Klopp's defense, he is against pep's City with money. Scoring 100+ pts and not winning the league is simply unbelievable.
@@chrisr4023 in Klopps offence, u don't sit quietly after winning UEFA C.L and P.L without having managing the weak point of Ur team. It's not like he hasn't bought players from Thiago to Nunez but he has just been trash after winning the E.P.L and C.L.
Even though I don’t support Manchester United I now admire how he kept them competing despite the glazers and Manchester City’s transformation. He was a forward thinker like sir bobby and a great man manager. However because he oversaw everything United where left with a massive knowledge gap which despite big name managers like Mourinho they still don’t have the DNA that Ferguson built his dynasty on like Busby did before him. As well as that patient like he was afforded isn’t given to his predecessor’s .
Mourinho never had any control over the transfer or over which players he wanted to play, and the club supported the players who threw him under the bus, SAF had to deal with all of this, show why he is a great, and the problem is growing at man utd
Amazing content as always , i don't have words for how underated this channel is , only 80k? Deserves way more imo.
Love from Portugal 🇵🇹
Rafael the GOAT🙌
I agree, the guy knows his football.
Facts
@@FootballIconic Yes, has been helping liverpool while not being their manager
I don't see how anyone can argue that Fergie isn't the greatest manager ever in English football. His track record is untouchable. This from an Arsenal fan who was 10 years old in 1992 when Sir Alex began his reign of terror. He's been a source of anguish and despair for 3 decades for me. And he's still the best manager ever.
Fergie was on a roll and didn't develope a legacy yet in the late 80's
Once upon a time United had Rooney - Tevez - Ronaldo as the front 3, arguably the best front 3 of the EPL era with Nani - Giggs - Park as subs, Carrick - Scholes - Fletcher - Park could play as a mid too, Vidic - Rio - Gary - Evra with O'Shea - Brown - Pique for depth
Giggs was not a sub?
Playing Darren Gibson in a Champions League semi-final 2nd leg and winning. That's badass
Gibson had a rocket on him when he shot from a distance, he had a couple slappers i’ll give him that he’d let em go in successful fashion.
Liverpool played Igor Biscan in the semis and won. Top that.
His final years are why he is the undisputed GOAT of football managers. The team he took to win his last Premier League title should have been fighting for the top 4 on paper, but he made them play like winners.
What he did at Aberdeen was miraculous.
Ferguson kept reinventing his methods to adapt to the changing football methods to stay competitive, his man management, his ability to sign great talents and develop them, the winning mentality, emphasis on teamwork and not individualism
Interesting fact: Eric Djemba Djemba made his United debut in the same match as Cristiano Ronaldo made his.
Ronaldo replaced Nicky Butt in the season opener vs Bolton Wanderers on 16/08/2003 while Eric Djemba Djemba replaced Ole Gunnar Solskjaer
Thank you for sharing that
Greatest manager ever definitely. Apart from Stevie G single-handedly winning us a European cup & an FA cup, this man made my childhood hell
Back when we used to sleep well even when we don't watch the game we know we would win lol
We will never see an another manager like Fergie and Wenger
I feel like Simeone is going that way. Doubt he's gonna be as successful but he's been at Madrid for 10 years already and has done fairly well considering his rivals are Real and Barca.
Wenger HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@@viksinha5410 don't talk when the big boys r talking
Guardiola exposed Alex
@@charlesmartel6508 wdym by exposed lol
Every head must bow, Every tongue must confess that Sir Alex is the greatest manager of all time.
city fans say pep is better cause he beat saf in ucl 1. saf did it first 2. they are basically saying ole tuchel klopp viera are better
@@El-qs7wp that was prime barca against a washed up Man Utd, even Sir Alex beat Pep's barca in 07/08 UCL, they are just jealous of our history and the fact that they have not won a CL and we have, 3 times
@@jr5034 Pep was not Barcelona coach in 2007 to 2008 season. It was frank Rijkaard. Plus at that time we're In a slump in form and their season was not so great plus they were in decline.
@@bhutochakrabarti4173 Sir Alex is one of the greatest managers of all time, thats all I am saying, just because someone is better does not mean he is bad, something many people do not understand
@@jr5034 Nobody is jealous of the fact that you won 3 UCLs, 2 of which were before I was even born. I don't think Pep is better than SAF at all.
The quality of these videos never ceases to amaze me. Keep it up mate
Cheers!!
Alex Ferguson is an exceptional manager. I would like to thank him to shape up a talented gem in the form of Cristiano Ronaldo who helped us reach new levels European Competitions. Absolutely classic.
Sir Alex was unimaginable, like damn what? A legend you can’t begin to comprehend
I found your channel a couple months backs and since then I have watched and loved every video you have posted. Great and knowledgable content from all across europe.
Cheers, Tremaine!
Have watched this vid multiple times since it came out, it never gets old. Great stuff that you're doing man!
His rebuild was from one European champion to another. In between MU was still dominant in England and winning trophies every year. His greatness is seen only now when he left, and MU is just another big rich club that overpays and underperforms. I really don't think there was a club as stable, consistent and at the top of the game for so long under any other manager in any team ever. And he did it the right way-develop local from youth, buy if you have to but what you really need not just to buy a star, proper club culture etc. Greatest ever.
His achievement with Aberdeen is just as impressive.
Tactically, SAF was never a inovator; but he was a fast learner and never made the same mistake twice
Just watched this for the second time, first was when it originally got released.
Keep up the great work!
Your channel is brilliant mate love the content. Keep up the good work ❤️💪
wonderful commentary and review my man!
As a life long liverpool fan, Klopp is currently revenging my childhood sufferings under the Fergie era.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
with his 1 league in 7 years. Yes you've won other trophies too, but you're just second fiddle to city
@@MH-vp7lf no by beating United 9-0 in the league last season. Man city were nothing in my childhood, there is no revenge to get there
@@MH-vp7lf We're the best
1 league title and 1 UCL hardly makes up for the countless trophies Fergie won in the 2000s alone.
Another great video as usual. Keep it up
great documentary, watched from begining to end. nice one
Love the content, binged for the last few days
Love this channel mate, keep the content coming. Youll be big some day, you have a keen eye for detail
Big shout-out to JT, we really needed that slip of yours in the final
Lol
Great stuff man👏
Your Videos are a piece of art❤
I remember both teams the treble one and the mid 00s.I became a united fan during the treble season and o boy mid 00s were the glory times,amazing football was played these years.I miss that team so much
Pretty much the best footy assesment channel in the world! Well done pal, your videos are very accurate. Keep doing what your doing
Thanks, friend!
I think you should do a timeline series, starting from the beginning of football's birth. It may be interesting to people who may not know.
THESE VIDEOS ARE SO GOOD !!! ENJOYED IT
amazing video!!!! left wanting more!!!
This squad imo was better than any other Manchester United squad
Sir Alex Ferguson and Christiano Ronaldo: The Father and Son Of Football ⚽
They changed Manchester United forever
Banger as always
Brilliant video, thanks a lot!
His longevity and consistency in winning trophies... 27 years... pioneering and adapting during the evolution of football made him a true legend of the sport. His story started even before he landed in Man U when he won home and European titles with a team without a proper training ground in Scotland -- epic.
Outstanding video. This United fan enjoyed the trip down memory lane. All we have now haha. Seriously though keep up the good work. Always impressed with the detail put into these. Also great to see some love for Djemba Djemba at last.
The greatest manager of all time and it should not even be a debate.
'sHoULd nOt EveN bE A dEBaTe'
Well we live in a society where we have freedom of speech. And there are very many non delusional people in continental europe who think that by far Ferguson IS NOT the greatest manager of all time.
@@user-oz3vl4xd1k Sir Alex Ferguson got to 4 UCL finals. The last two that he lost to Barcelona - Barcelona should NOT have even been in the finals (referees robbed Chelsea in 09 and Arsenal/Madrid in 2011).
Sir Alex also won the European Cup Winners Cup with Aberdeen beating Bayern Munich and Real Madrid in 1981. Something no manager could do.
This channel is a hidden gem
Late 00s-Early 10s Man United = one of the greatest teams ever.
I'm an Arsenal fan but credit where its due 🙏
YES IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
I've been waiting for this video for so long lol
Merry Christmas 😂
@@FootballIconic just finished watching it and you did djemba djerba dirty 💀
Great content keep it up
You've got a great sense of humor. I cracked up quite a bit.
Can we just appreciate how good is the video?
Underrated Channel
I have been loyal Liverpool FC fan for over 23 years now( mind you I am 35) but i think Sir Alex is by far the best of all time.
great video, your channel is sick, you should make a video about Zidane's unexpected 3 seasons! BIG FAN
Great one bro
These videos are outstanding
Fergie is the greatest manager of all time and I say that as an Arsenal fan. I loved Wenger but for me what Fergie did is kept teams competitive and regularly freshened up his coaching staff as well.
This ensured the players stayed on their toes. I always though Wenger didn't adequately replace players, granted the Emirates was a drain but we needed to have a better recruitment strategy. We just went to hemorrhaging stars.
Your statement on the Glazers at the end was well said
CR7 and CH14 at man utd would have been a deadly duo
The fact that Sir Alex Ferguson won the league with Smalling and Jones and Pep spent over £1 billion and still can't win the Champions League with City
There are levels to this
lol this comparision with Pep. Pep beat Fergie's Utd twice with 7-8 home grown Barcelona talents.
@@vinhbao9738 he's talking about city though.
Peo bulldozed prime Utd cry
Smalling and Jones were very good back then.
@@vinhbao9738 that’s because Pep got lucky that Xavi Iniesta Puyol were already household names. Pique was nurtured by Sir Alex the previous year in 2008 and won the UCL with the United team too.
Pep got lucky with Busquets Pedro. Messi was given his debut under Riijkaard.
Give Sir Alex his 99 team with academy players like Giggs Scholes Beckham Butt Neville at their peak, and he’d have beaten Pep the way he beat Pep’s mentor Cruyff’s Barcelona in 1991/92.
great videos!
Glory Glory Man Utd. Also love your content
I grew up supporting Man Utd since Championship Manager 2003 came out (I was 8 back then). One thing that I realize from the squad up to 2013 is that how FLEXIBLE they were. O'Shea virtually can play almost every position. The same can be said for Park mid-upward. Heck even Kieran Richardson was a MR/L, AMR/L. ST lmao.
You've got a great wee channel here mate , got anew subscriber from Dundee, Scotland. ✌😎🏴
Welcome aboard!
cant wait for this channel to blow up tbh
Klopp studies Ferguson. Arguably his back four took inspiration from Ferguson's team.
Great vid
Football Iconic = goated
Awesome content
Fantastic channel bro
Underrated channel bro. Just as good as Micheal Carrick run with united. 0 l's
Legend❤️
United now undergoing a revolution to get back on top... just goes to show how great Sir Alex was... Looking forward to the new era.
how have you only got 71k subs, deserve more
Man U was global. You could feel the excitement all the way from across the pond.❤️
Nicely done with the Lebowski usage
United fans were spoiled silly with Ferguson in the 90's and the noughties, like Liverpool fans before them in the 70's and 80's. It's weird that neither of these two great teams are ever at the top of their game at the same time.
3 3 draw at anfield in in 94 I think it was. Absolutely an amazing game. But I agree, imagine united and the Scousers fighting it out in the league now!!
2008/9 was the only time in recent memory
I love this club!!! Thanx!!!!
This is my favorite football essay channel, love every vid! I'd like a bite more Arsenal though 😝😝
Love the content man. I thinking of starting my own as well any advice appreciated 🙏🏾
Hey man, you should do it!
Only advice is make sure you have a passion for whatever you're making videos about. Something that doesn't feel like work (for me it's football, of course)
Then just start. Don't worry about training or equipment or whatever. Use your phone to record if you don't have a microphone, use basic editing software. Just start. You'll be bad when you start, but you'll get better the more you do it!
Just have fun with it.
@@FootballIconic thanks much. Will definitely do 💪🏾
Would love to see a video on Ole Gunnar Solskjær. As a player + your opinion on his time as our manager 😁
Already done one on his time as a player!
Manchester united Ferguson era was so untouchable!
phenomenal vid coming from a united fan personally
This here is the first time watching a CZcams video and searching for the Facebook heart reaction...I'll just paste the imoji here then..❤❤❤
The undisputed 🐐 SAF 👑
@20:20 absolutely crazy facts. I’m an Arsenal fan but Man U were beasts in that era
man united is such an unbelievable club, what they survived no other club could ever manage
you should make a video in the future about Ajax's 1995 UCL winning team as i just searched up on youtube and not many people have made videos on it and i'm curious about it
Love your content man. I really need to know what steps you take while editing your videos so it complies with fair use. Please it's really important for me to know so I can learn from someone who has successfully implemented it because many people usually encounter problems due to these things.
Yes bro ..........biggest issue when editing CZcams videos with several video clips
@@tjfootball1908 Exactly
Very enjoyable
This has become my favourite football content page 😂 and the jokes 🤣🤣🤣
