A total of 13 of the 30 titles Sir Alex Ferguson led Manchester United to were league titles.
But since his time at the club, the successes have been few and the search for a new place at the top has been long.
Despite that, the coaching icon has faith that the club will return to the top – at least before Tottenham.
The question of whether the latter will ever win the Premier League makes him burst out laughing.
– No, no, Ferguson replies.
It hurt Sky Sports reporter Matt Chapman.
– What’s so funny? You break my heart.
Sir Alex: “Never in my life”
Ferguson continues:
– 1961 was the last time they won. It’s been a long time. Considering the positions that Liverpool and Manchester City have today, they are so strong. Even compared to United.
Then Chapman went on a new reconnaissance.
– It is more likely that Spurs will win than United, he says.
Ferguson, who last year suffered a brain haemorrhage, then struck back with lightning speed:
– Never in my life.
At present, however, Dejan Kulusevski and his Tottenham are closer to league leaders Liverpool. Seven points up to the top has the team in fourth place in the Premier League.
United? They are a further six points and two places behind.
