Sir Alex Ferguson is one of the best managers in football history.

Tim Howard

I have a great deal of respect for Sir Alex Ferguson. He has done a great job. Without any doubt, he is one of the best and most influential around. He is the embodiment of football.

Frank Rijkaard

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

Sir Alex Ferguson must be very high up on the list of greatest managers ever. Then there is Fabio Capello, and people forget how much Giovanni Trapattoni achieved at Inter and especially Juventus.

Sven-Goran Eriksson

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

A piece of football history. A unique coach [Sir Alex Ferguson], among the greatest of all-time.

Roberto Mancini

A lot of the best managers in the game were forced into it by financial necessity. From Sir Alex Ferguson to Jurgen Klopp, their main incentive to move into coaching after their playing careers was to make a living.

Jermaine Jenas

I don't know much about football but I know when Alex Ferguson retired this guy called Moys came in and he was doomed to fail. He could have been the best manager in the world, but karma tells you that after that prolonged success you're always going to have problems.

Chris Harris

I know I would have had a lot more trophies in my cabinet if I went with him [Sir Alex Ferguson].

Paul Gascoigne

I think the fact that Sir Alex Ferguson rested Howard Webb had a lot to do with the result.

Noel Gallagher

It's a great honour that someone like Sir Alex Ferguson goes out of his way to mention my name.

Joe Hart

Sir Alex, one of the best managers of all time. After 26 years of success in the game, we all owe him a tribute.

Vincent Kompany

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

Sir Alex Ferguson sent me a letter wishing me good luck before my fight with Floyd Mayweather Jr. He also sent me a United shirt, signed by all of the players. It was a really nice touch and typical of the man who has always made himself available to managers in this country whenever they've needed advice.
