Sir Alex Ferguson has amusingly explained why his Manchester United dressing room believed Bryan Robson was his son. Securing his place in Old Trafford's hall of fame from 1986 to 2013, Sir Alex reaped a bounty of titles and awards, managing a galaxy of elite players, including football powerhouse Cristiano Ronaldo, new coach Erik ten Hag's right-hand man Ruud van Nistelrooy, midfield maestro Paul Scholes, and brick wall goalkeeper Peter Schmeichel.
The celebrated 82-year-old shared a laugh with compatriot Ally McCoist on TNT Sports this week, where the ex-Rangers star-turned-broadcaster questioned him on his man-management approach.
McCoist asked: "You clearly worked with far and away some of the best, Robbo [Robson], [Eric] Cantona, you mentioned [Carlos] Tevez, obviously Ronaldo. "Just unbelievable talent.
Did you treat them all the same or within reason did you have to do things accordingly?"
