All across the media today there's a lot of 'Fergie's best moments' features. They include things like that magic fucking night in Barcelona (TM Clive Tyldesley).
I think we can do better. Here's a first stab:
5. Being utterly outclassed by Barcelona in the Champions league final of 2011
4. Being thumped 6-3 by Southampton only to utter the immortal excuse that his players could not see each other in their grey strip
3. Losing 5-1 to Manchester City in September 1989 after spending £20m strengthening his team - described in his autobiography as the most embarrassing defeat of his career. (little did he know what was to follow...)
2. Losing 1-0 to Manchester City in April 2012 in front of a global tv audience of 650 million in a game that would have almost guaranteed the title had he won it - his team did not manage a single effort on target
1. Losing 6-1 to Manchester City in front of a fast emptying Old Trafford in November 2011, conceding three goals in injury time. The title would be decided later that season by goal difference.
Come on blues, I reckon there are loads more we can come up with
