Will Fergie retire if United win the Champions League
=======Will Fergie retire if United win the Champions League
>>>>>>> .r8797The story goes that Sir Alex Ferguson will retire as Manchester United manager just as soon as United win the Champions League. The other story goes that Fergie is so convinced that his current crop of youngster will be the best ever that he’ll not retire for many years yet whether or not the Champions League Cup comes back to Old Trafford.
Yes - Fergie will retire
His one major regret as Manchester United manager is that United never followed up their 1999 Champions League win with another win. He is only carrying on as manager so he can prove to all doubters that he is the best manager ever by winning the trophy twice and bettering Sir Matt Busby and proving that 99 wasn’t just a one season fluke.
No - Fergie won’t retire
Winning the Champions League isn’t the only motivation for Fergie. He has proved that he has the ability to build and rebuild great teams - 93-94, 99 and 07-? He is so excited by the current side he has gone on record saying that this team has the ability to be his best ever. He wouldn’t abandon the likes of Ronaldo and Rooney at the end of this season when they have many years ahead at the top of their game.

I have in the past been one who would like Fergie to retire, but I think may attitude is changing. I seem to be happier with both his selection and his tactics. At the moment I don’t see a ready replacement I would be happier with (another vote perhaps?). Carlos is not right for me and I think it would be a big mistake to promote him. I do admit to not knowing how much influence he has behind the scenes at the moment however. Sparki is not quite there, Brucie is still battling and Keano needs experience. As romantic as all those choices are Martin O’Niel is doing well with his set of players as usual. Lets stick with Fergie a while yet :

The man lives football it’s his life. I think we’re looking at a Bobby Robson, he’ll wait until he’s put out to pasture at 70 .

I know that the biggest prize for Fergie is the Champions League, but somehow I can`t see him retiring even if Man United win it this season. He just goes on and on, and I reckon there`s a few more seasons left in him yet.
