I miss being a football manager – Sir Alex Ferguson

Legendary Manchester United boss, Sir Alex Ferguson, has admitted that he misses life as a football manager.

The 82-year-old stepped away from manager after the 2012/2013 season.

Ferguson retired after leading United to their 13th Premier League title in what was his 27th year at Old Trafford.

United have struggled for success ever since Ferguson’s departure, with Manchester City leading the way for much of the last decade.

Speaking on BBC Breakfast about life post retirement, he said: “Yeah, I miss it sometimes.

“I think the first year after retirement, I went to the European final and I said to Cathy ‘this is what I miss’ – big games, the European games.

“So then I went to most of the European finals because I find something I can relate to, something I would like to have done every day.

“Because these are the big events that United should always be involved in.”
