How deluded is Alex Ferguson?

How dare he claim that Liverpool-Manchester United is the biggest game?

Delusion - A delusion is a false belief held with absolute conviction despite superior evidence.

He is beyond that. Dare I say it, I'm even beginning to question whether he really knows the sport. The man is in a bubble.

Manchester United v Liverpool isn't even a derby for starters, it doesn't get the most views and besides there being no evidence of it being the biggest and best game... it is also one of the most poor games on this planet. Watching paint dry is more entertaining.

It is not in the same league as the el classico and north London derby - in all aspects! Viewers, entertainment, and ferocity of the match.

In addition to a point I made earlier about questioning how much this guy knows the sport, you may point out the trophies, and I will point out the money. Wenger is the best manager, without consistently breaking the British transfer record, and need for rich owners, he has won trophies through SKILL and KNOWLEDGE of the beautiful game.

Without money, Alex Ferguson wouldn't have won any trophies, fact.

When someone contests that the 2 most successfull clubs in england have great rivaly and goes ahead to claim that he knows more about football than SAF(I hate him but that doesnt mean he isnt good), then he is the perfect defination of delusion.

You really ought to educate yourself on the impact that SAF had at Aberdeen and how he is the only manager in almost 30 years to break the Old Firm stranglehold.

I've not read all the coimments so if this has already been said you have my apologies.

I don't think anyone refers to LFC - Man Utd as a derby do they? Certainly don't round here. It's a North West derby, sure, but we all know that's a little tenuous and there are many others clubs in that bracket such as Bolton, Blackburn and so on.

The reason it is billed as the biggest game is simply because it is. The two clubs have the most fans, the most success and arguably the greatest most historical rivalry. This has been the case for decades even when Man Utd were not doing well and now when, to a lesser extent, LFC are not doing so well.

The OP sounds jelous tbh. I doubt many get up at four in the morning in America, etc, to watch some North London derby that no-one cares about between two clubs that have, in comparison, won feck all and never will be on the same level nationally, globally or successfully.

The NL derby is only competitive now because Arsenal are now so rubbish, Spurs are a better team. Before hand Arsenal just won over and over, not much history in the London derbies.

And based on what you said the El Classico can't be a derby either because they are hundreds of miles apart

OP is an idiot!
