Alex Ferguson: Liverpool clash will be the biggest game in the English Premier League
Today, Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson, talked up his side’s clash with Liverpool, claiming that will be the biggest game in the English Premier League.
The two teams are perhaps the fiercest rivals in the league and Ferguson, who once claimed that his biggest achievement was ending the dominance of Liverpool in the English game, is relishing the chance to lock horns with his friend Roy Hodgson, who took
over as boss of the Reds earlier this summer.
Ferguson told reporters today that, “I sound like a parrot but this is the fixture. There is no question about that. It doesn't change. The form fluctuates quite a bit, but we won the last game so hopefully that turns it back towards us again."
Reds out for revenge
Liverpool will be out for revenge after losing the last time the teams met back in March, when Park Ji-sung scored the winning goal.
Ferguson did not enjoy a close relationship with Hodgson’s predecessor Rafael Benitez, but while the Scot is looking forward to pitting his wits against Hodgson, he will be setting his team out to pick up three points after they drew in two of their last
three EPL games.
He said that, “I have known Roy for a long time. I first met him in 1987 when I went on an aborted trip to Malmo. It was a European tie against Ajax and they abandoned it after one minute. He was at the game and we went for dinner afterwards. Roy has the
experience. He has gathered a wealth of experience in Italy, Switzerland and Finland and the job he did at Fulham was absolutely extraordinary. But our approach will not change. We have to express ourselves the way we always do."
