Manchester United: Fans love the message Sir Alex Ferguson sent to Arsene Wenger
One of the greatest managerial rivalries in English footballing history has to be Sir Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger.
Is this the worst Manchester United team in the Premier League era?
Yes
No
The two legends reigned over their respective clubs – Manchester United and Arsenal – for more than two decades together, and shared some of the most thrilling moments in top-flight history.
They had a mutual respect for each other but rarely displayed it due to the passionate rivalry between themselves and their teams, but now the pair are no longer in the hot seat at Old Trafford or the Emirates, that respect is free to flow effortlessly between the two legends of the game without interference.
Former Gunners boss Wenger – who only parted company with the north Londoners in 2018 – was attending the Nordoff Robbins Legends of Football charity night on Monday evening, and though his former nemesis in the dugout, Sir Alex Ferguson, was not there to pass on his best wishes in person, he did send a short video to the Frenchman which has today surfaced on Twitter.
Unsurprisingly, the Scot’s kind words have gone down a storm with United fans:
Won’t ever see managers like them anymore

They will go down as the 2 greatest PL managers in history. Their rivalry over the years was mammoth but they have the utmost respect for each other.
