Alex Ferguson's Marmite FC: A team of 11 players he loved and hated the most
The former Manchester United boss laid his cards on the table in his new book, but who did he hit hardest with his stinging criticism?
Alex Ferguson has passed his judgemental eye over Manchester United players new and old in his autobiography, some received a literary pat on the pack, the less fortunate ones got the knife.
Mark Bosnich had the honour of being called a lazy porker, Owen Hargreaves was termed the 'most disappointing' signing of Fergie's career, and Gary Neville was labelled 'explosive' - off the pitch, of course.
Sir Alex Ferguson's new autobiography is a rollercoaster journey of praise, insults, insight, and a smattering of stinging criticism.
But Fergie reserved his highest praise and his lowest blows for only a special few players, the players who made the biggest impression on the great man, whether it was good or bad.
For the most part, his quips were delivered with the skill and accuracy of a man with abundant experience in the area, having battled through the world of football for most of his adult life.
These were the parting words of a man whose managerial prowess may never be equalled in the beautiful game, and they're well worth a read.
