LAM, the League Managers Association would be the most envious lot bamboozled by the secret behind the success of the man they call Sir Alex Ferguson. Yet, ironically it is the same group of people that had to invariably vote him as the manager of the year for leading his side to the tenth EPL title in 22 seasons he has been in-charge. It could well have been Avram Grant had his side managed to clinch the title, but for the genius of Sir Ferguson he was denied the same.
Accepting the honors the way he has been over all these years, Sir Ferguson quipped:
It is a tremendous honour that my fellow managers should deem me worthy of this award. I’m very proud to receive it.
The 66 year old manager is though not done with the laurels and he is more than keen to make this honour count on the 21st of May when his side faces Chelsea in the first All- English Champions League Final. Going by his verdict, ManU could beat Chelsea for the confidence they now have from clinching the English title.

Sir Alex Ferguson proves every season that he’s as hungry as ever. It is amazing that even after so many years of success he keeps on going strong. He’s made some very shrewd buys last season and those along with other United stalwarts have led the success story this year.
It is really hard to imagine United without the fiery Scot.
