Sir Alex Ferguson offered Manchester United some important words of advice before he put the hairdryer away for the final time and retired in 2013 - not that they bothered listening.Fergie called it quits at Old Trafford almost a decade ago, dramatically announcing his decision to step away from the technical area in May 2013. And after his final home game in charge - a 2-1 victory over Swansea City - the legendary Scotsman took to the microphone to issue a final request to the club's fans and board."I would like to remind you this club stood by me in bad times, the players and the staff," he told supporters inside Old Trafford.

So much so that Ferguson wanted to hit the now-retired player with a stick as he was that frustrated with him.Former United coach Nick Clegg spoke of the incident to The Athletic, he explained: “You could never find a nicer person [than Anderson] — he was popular with everyone — but he was a lazy bleeder.
