Sir Alex Ferguson admitted the FA contacted him over becoming the England manager. 👀 Fans will love his reply... 👏
"The thing was, why would I leave Manchester United? I was as happy as a landlord at this great club. The motivation was there, you look at the training ground and see all these great players.
"The motivations were the players, the dressing room, the opportunity to win football matches and the biggest motivation of all was to win football matches and I was definitely at the right club. "To sit in the stadium at Old Trafford on a Saturday afternoon with no one in it, or a Sunday morning with no one in it, unbelievable motivation.and the club knew that. There was absolutely no way I would have managed Scotland, other than the fact I couldn't have gone back to Scotland."Whilst there was little chance of the former Aberdeen boss taking charge of England, he nearly did manage the Great Britain side at the Olympics in 2012.
The team might not have been knocked out of the quarter finals by South Korea if Fergie had been in charge, but we'll never know... SPORTbible Stories is the brand-new podcast from the SPORT team at LADbible. The first episode features a chat with former Burnley manager Sean Dyche as he opens up on his departure from Turf Moor, what the future holds and the amazing story of the spin wheel for fines while in charge of the Clarets.
