Short description
Sir Alex announced his retirement as manager of Manchester United after 27 years in the role. He has gone out in a blaze of glory, with United winning the Premier League for the 13th time, and he is widely considered to be the greatest manager in the history of football. He has been reflecting on the highlights of his extraordinary career and reveals his amazing story as it unfolded.Blurb
Sir Alex Ferguson's compelling story is always honest and revealing he reflects on his managerial career that embraced unprecedented European success for Aberdeen and 26 triumphant seasons with Manchester United.
Sir Alex Ferguson's best-selling autobiography has now been updated to offer reflections on events at Manchester United since his retirement as well as his teachings at the Harvard Business School, a night at the Oscars and a boat tour round the Hebrides, where he passed unrecognised.
The extra material adds fresh insights and detail on his final years as United's manager.
Both the psychology of management and the detail of football strategy at the top level can be complex matters but no-one has explained them in a more interesting and accessible way for the general reader than Sir Alex does here.
MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY is revealing, endlessly entertaining and above all inspirational.
Biography
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.
