Players and managers pay tribute to outgoing Manchester United boss.
David Beckham (above) - EX-UNITED PLAYER
“Without talking about the success that he has had, the impact that he has with the team, players and fans, I don’t think anyone has had an impact like that in football, ever.”
Avi Glazer - JOINT CHAIRMAN
“His contributions to Manchester United over the last 26 years have been extraordinary and, like all United fans, I want him to be a part of its future.”
Vincent Kompany - MAN CITY CAPTAIN
“Sir Alex, one of the best managers of all time. After 26 years of success in the game, we all owe him a tribute.”
Michael Owen - EX-UNITED PLAYER
“What an act to follow. I guess only Mourinho would have the confidence to strut through the door. If it were me, I’d go for Moyes.”
Sam Allardyce - WEST HAM BOSS
“He’s the greatest ever club manager in this country or in Europe. Football will miss him. United have a massive task in replacing him.”
David Gill - UNITED CHIEF EXEC
“It has been the greatest experience of my working life being alongside Alex and a great honour to be able to call him a friend.”
