That United played aesthetically pleasing football under Fergie. Bar a few moments here and there, it was just very effective, 4-4-2, Allardyce-esque, bang-it-in-to-the-mixer-and-fill-the-box shite. I don’t blame them for playing like that because it won them a lot and they had the players for it. But ex-Trafford pundits seem to be repeating this myth more and more but 99% of neutrals who were around in the 90s and 00s know that Arsenal (among others) were rightly regarded as the better team to watch.
