Although i cheer for Chelsea,i am more of a soccer fan and for this reason,i constantly keep tabs on the events that occur in the English Premier League.
Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement comes not as a surprise but more as a reality that has been waiting to happen and we have no concrete reason why the most successful coach in the EPL is retiring.
There are speculations that it could be as a result of the hip operation he's about to undergo or the fact that his family wants him to spend more time with them,in other words spend some of the money this rich man has been making all these years.He might have had enough of the everyday football life as well and for a man of his age(71 years),that's very possible but whatever the case may be,he will be missed come next season and there's no doubt that younger coaches will now be aspiring to achieve as much as Sir Alex Ferguson.He has won 49 major trophies as the manager of Manchester United.For this reason,i can say that he is a very successful coach and he has indeed rebranded Manchester United over the years.This is why the announcement of his retirement affected MUFC's stock price on the NYSE.
The Club's owners are now faced with the challenge of finding a perfect replacement for him.Could it be David Moyes,Jose Mourinho,Ole Gunnar Solskjaer or even Ryan Giggs? What do you think?
