Fergie always knew

Alex Ferguson toasted what he called his greatest achievement in football with champagne on Sunday as Arsenal's 3-2 defeat by Leeds handed Manchester United their eighth English crown in 11 years and claimed he had never doubted his team would do it.
The 60-year-old Scot admitted that he had questioned the players' hunger after the 3-1 derby defeat by Manchester City in November but in the end he was satisfied that they had what it took to win the title.
"I never doubted that we could do it," said Ferguson, who has become the most successful manager in British football.
"Once you've been with a group of players for a long time you get to know them well.
"However, after the Manchester
City game I did question the hunger of the players and whether they were hungry enough.
"You must ask that question of very rich players who have had a lot of success," added the former Aberdeen boss.
Nevertheless Ferguson said they had shown their character and by having won it had given him his greatest achievement in football, even putting the 1999 Champions League title behind it.
"It is the greatest achievement as we were up against it.
"However we have shown perseverance and determination allied to natural ability and we never gave up," he said.
Ferguson revealed that the early part of the season had been the hardest part as his side struggled and Arsenal made an explosive start which led to their manager Arsene Wenger claiming they could win the title without losing a match.
"We had a lot of injuries at the
start of the season but we decided to bite the bullet and take the poison and wait for those players to return fit," he said.
Ferguson admitted he had kept his promise of not watching the Arsenal match as he attended his grandson's birthday party on Sunday.
"I turned my phone on at six o'clock and a friend of mine phoned me to tell me that Leeds had scored and I waited nervously for five minutes until the final whistle went," said the Scot.
However Ferguson, who only last season had revised his decision to retire form the post, said there was much still to be done particularly in the Champions League.
"It's simply not good enough for a club the size of this to have only won it twice," he said.
"It is the most important thing remaining to me in a football sense that I want to achieve - bringing in anonther Champions League title," he added.
