For over two decades Sir Alex Ferguson dominated the Premier League, overseeing a sustained and unparalleled period of success with Manchester United. He was a visionary, able to move with the times and build title-winning teams both on and off the pitch. He was a man-manager of phenomenal skill, and increasingly he had to deal with global stars. His relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, for instance, was excellent and David Beckham has described Sir Alex as a father figure.
In his bestselling autobiography, Sir Alex reflects on the highlights of his extraordinary career and reveals his remarkable story, from his very early days in the tough shipyard areas of Govan to winning the Champions league in Moscow in 2008.
Revised and updated, this edition offers reflections on events at Manchester United since his retirement and offers fresh insights and details on his final years as United's manager.

'Fascinating ' Evening Standard
'His book is really a piece of oral history, and his life is a conduit to a time when a working-class man of talent could, not by the magical alchemy of elite education or the stardust of celebrity, but by a lifetime of hard work and hard thinking, rise to the very top and, flaws aside, remain true to the best of the world he came from .' Guardian
Biografie
Sir Alex Ferguson, geboren 1941, wuchs im Glasgower Werftarbeiterviertel Govan auf. Als Spieler stürmte er unter anderem für die Glasgow Rangers, bevor er seine Trainerkarriere beim schottischen FC East Stirlingshire begann. Über den FC St. Mirren und den FC Aberdeen, mit dem er ab 1980 drei schottische Meistertitel gewann und dreimal in Folge Pokalsieger wurde, ging er - nach einem kurzen Intermezzo als Nationaltrainer Schottlands - 1986 zu Manchester United. Dort gewann er 1999 das Triple Landesmeisterschaft, FA Cup und Champions League. 2008 folgte der zweite Gewinn der Champions League. Bis zu seinem Abschied am 19. Mai 2013 absolvierte Sir Alex Ferguson 1500 Pflichtspiele für ManU. Unnötig zu erwähnen, dass der engagierte Sozialist sowohl auf dem Feld wie abseits von diesem ein stets gefürchteter Gegenspieler war, intelligent, schlagfertig und kompromisslos.
