Liverpool fans force to agree with Sir Alex Ferguson after captain 'brutally exposed' in team meeting
There are few players who have represented both Liverpool and Manchester United. The number of people who have led both clubs is significantly less. A one-man club. Ince, Paul
Alex Ferguson rarely missed an occasion to slam Liverpool.
When he took over as manager of Manchester United in November 1986, he knew exactly what he had to do: knock the Reds "off their f****** perch... and you can print that," as he famously revealed years later.Some feel that Liverpool had already knocked themselves out by the time United won their first Premier League title in 1993.
Ferguson's 26-year reign came to an end with the Red Devils having converted an 18-7 league championship deficit in Liverpool's favor into a two-point lead for the Old Trafford club following thirteen consecutive title wins.
And he was only able to make a dent in Liverpool's European Cup dominance, with his two victories in 1999 and 2008 being leveled up by the Istanbul miracle in 2005, which Liverpool stretched into a 6-3 lead in Madrid in 2019.Ferguson had one of the most humbling experiences of his pre-United managerial career at Anfield, when, after leading Aberdeen to only their second ever Scottish top flight title in 1980, he saw his first crack at the European Cup ended in the second round by a ruthless Liverpool on their way to a third triumph in the competition in five years, Terry McDermott's sublime chip at Pittodrie the precursor to a 4-0 hammering in the Anfield second leg.
Liverpool and their exploits were the standard Ferguson knew he had to meet even as his Old Trafford era began to take shape and produce trophies, which may explain why his career was peppered with jabs at Anfield.After a tense 3-3 Easter Monday draw at Anfield, he claimed opposing managers "have to leave here choking on their own vomit, biting their tongue, afraid to tell the truth," and Dalglish retorted by suggesting reporters would get more sense out of his baby daughter Lauren, whom he was holding in his arms after the match.The rivalry between him and Rafa Benitez was well-documented, with the 2008/09 title race producing the Reds' Spanish boss' infamous 'facts' speech about Ferguson's influence on referees and the FA, and Ferguson responding later in the season by supporting his pal Sam Allardyce's contrived suggestion the Spaniard had somehow disrespected Blackburn with a hand gesture during a game during the run-in.
Liverpool fans would have rolled their eyes at their Scottish nemesis' antics on two occasions, but one of his less-remembered blasts from just over a decade before would, in time, have some nodding their heads in begrudging agreement.
