During the Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United era, a lot of memories were created. The legendary manager created a domineering image of the club to the rest of the sides in the English Premier League, while he also painted a picture of the Red Devils to the rest of the European giants. The culture and DNA that the Scot instilled in the club during his reign as their manager was a formidable one and they were a force to reckon with across all of Europe. He had a lot of charisma, characteristics, and qualities of a top manager no doubt, but even though he also he had an eagle eye when it comes to spotting raw talents in players, he was way more than that.

Sir Alex did more than just sign players and have them thrown into the team just for the sake of it. He would follow up with that by establishing a great relationship with his players and do more than just coaching them on the pitch or on the training ground. There have been several occasions where some of his former players would admit to having a great time under his management because of how he was very careful in being an approachable manager as it had a lot of positive impact on all the players individually and on the team in general.

During the summer transfer window of the 2012-13 season, Manchester United completed one of the greatest signings in their history after luring former Netherlands international striker Robin Van Persie away from Arsenal. The Dutchman was already unsettled at the Emirates Stadium and then told the club that he would like to leave in order to try out another adventure at another club. After deciding to quit Arsenal, there was only one club he wanted to join and it was Sir Alex Ferguson’s Manchester United; the best team in the league at the time. Van Persie was also one of the hottest strikers in the league then so it seemed like a perfect match made in heaven.

United signed the striker for around £30 million from Arsenal and it would go down in history as one of the best bits of business they’ve ever done. The striker would go on to have a fantastic season at Old Trafford, scoring 20 goals in the Premier League as he helped them to win their 20th league title. It was also an amazing feeling for van Persie, who had not won the league title since playing for Arsenal and he only achieved it after spending just one full season at Old Trafford.
