From a Madridista for the Greatest manager of all time !!!
In about 70 years of age, many of us will eventually retire. Will lay back. Relax, and Enjoy the remainder of our life in a quiet and peaceful manner.
Me, You .. Heck, we all would want to, right? Just kick back when we hit the big SEVEN ZERO (70). Satisfied with what he achieved. Our goals and ambitions.. At peace. But in life, you often come across a man or a group of people who defy odds. Driven by their ambitions, and the desire for more .. these people just keep on going, facing and tackling every obstacle head on and somehow prevailing and conquering new heights. Writing their names, forever, in the book of greats. Just like a Knight of shining armor, returning victorious after a dreaded battle. In the world of Football, such hunger and desire is not seen that often.
Specially in the modern version of the game. Ambitions driven by money and wealth. Players/Managers leaving or joining for money or fame. Loyalty to one club is just a mere phrase now. Out of this dark abyss, only one name shines through. And that is, without any doubt, of 'Sir Alex Ferguson'.

I am still in shock over the retirement of this great man, this legend.
Thank you for all the trophies you have won for us, and all the great players you have nurtured . 38 trophies, 26-years. Thank you for everything, Sir Alex.
We will miss you and your chewing gum when you are gone. =(

A goal by Rio Ferdinand, and this is his celebration. Had me in tears!
He is so used to it. I'm sure he will do the same after his retirement, too. But we won't get to see it like this. God, why!

I will miss him more than anyone. Sir Alex, please don't leave.
