Few statues were erected last year, an Old trafford road was also named in his honour. We all know why everyone adores SAF. A new portrait of revered ex-Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson has the names of all the 218 players he managed during his 26-year reign.
Created by Annemarie Wright, the statue which will sell for £3,500 has the names of the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, RVP, Rooney as well as others. The artist, a 34-year-old fine arts graduate who's not really a fan of football said Fergie's huge in influence in football inspired her to create the unique piece of art.
"My dad has been a fan since the 1950s. He is not from Manchester but has followed the team since the Munich Air disaster. I bought him the Alex Ferguson autobiography for Christmas and I started thinking about the huge impact he has had on British culture. His face is so well known."
