What do you think of the Alex Ferguson statue that was unveiled today?

He’s not quite looking at his wristwatch but it’s a pretty good likeness, right?

MANCHESTER UNITED CHIEFS this afternoon unveiled the statue depicting manager Alex Ferguson, in front of the stand now bearing his name.

He’s not quite looking at his wristwatch or chewing Wrigleys, but it’s a pretty good likeness. What do you think?

    @Colm, very similar post to the one you made on the Fergie/Benitez fued. Troll or just a bitter Lfc fan.

    I’ve never seen him strike that pose. Is he about to break in to gangnam style?
