It is important that Manchester United keeps its identity. Their heritage is to produce and develop players, something that started with Sir Matt and continued with Sir Alex Ferguson.

Peter Schmeichel

A lot of people know Sir Alex Ferguson was the heart of Manchester United. He is a legend.

Patrice Evra

The chairmen of the largest companies in the world can cancel an appointment or move a board meeting; a manager cannot change the date of a game. In the combined 42 years that Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger have managed in English football, I can only remember one occasion when Sir Alex did not attend a Manchester United game.

Howard Wilkinson

Manchester United is a world-famous club, and yet if you say, 'Manchester United,' then immediately you think of Sir Alex Ferguson. To have achieved so much and have so much importance at such a big club is extremely rare.

Frank Rijkaard

I think he [Sir Alex Ferguson] may have even surpassed the achievements of Matt Busby for Manchester United.

Kenny Dalglish

After Sir Alex Ferguson, it's been a difficult time for Man United, but actually, many people know that after Sir Alex Ferguson, it would be difficult for Man United.

Park Ji-sung

I always said as a kid that I'd like to play for United, and I once spoke to Sir Alex Ferguson about it. We chatted for around 20 minutes, and I told him that my dream was to come here to Manchester United.

Alexis Sanchez

As long as we are successful on the pitch, then I will be here-unless Manchester United put in a call. But I don't think Sir Alex Ferguson is planning to step down just yet!

Paul Ince

Sir Alex Ferguson was a genuinely nice man. We met many times and even had dinner together on a few occasions. But woe to the person who threatened or bothered Manchester United in any way. Then Ferguson would not spare his venom. I know, because he often aimed that venom at me.

Sven-Goran Eriksson

I have been a few times to Manchester United to have a look. I got a tour and spoke with Sir Alex Ferguson. Being a 15-year-old and being able to talk with him is great!

Andreas Pereira

Part of being a Manchester United player under Sir Alex Ferguson, perhaps the most important part of being one of United's attacking players was that when you were in possession, you had to take risks in order to create goal-scoring chances. It was not an option; it was an obligation.

Paul Scholes

You will never see United manager Sir Alex Ferguson in the media taking problems he has or the squad has or the club has into the open. Never, ever. But you do see that at Manchester City.

Peter Schmeichel

Arsenal needs Arsene Wenger, but also Arsene Wenger needs Arsenal. For me, he will die at Arsenal. He is like Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United. After you think about Ferguson and United, you then think about Wenger and Arsenal.

Robert Pires

I want to thank Manchester United, David Gill, Alex Ferguson, and the fanbase for two years there, but this is my new life, and I am very happy to be with Manchester City.

Carlos Tevez

We saw — we conducted the experiment. I mean, it’s been done. We saw Apple with Steve Jobs. We saw Apple without Steve Jobs. We saw Apple with Steve Jobs. Now, we’re gonna see Apple without Steve Jobs.

Larry Ellison

We saw - we conducted the experiment. I mean, it's been done. We saw Apple with Steve Jobs. We saw Apple without Steve Jobs. We saw Apple with Steve Jobs. Now, we're gonna see Apple without Steve Jobs.
