Sir Alex Ferguson, his most memorable Man United games and death ‘crossing his mind’

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has released a new memoir titled Games of My Life, detailing 21 matches that hold personal significance. In extracts from the book, the 84-year-old reflects on his mortality, noting that death occasionally crosses his mind as he hopes to see the completion of new stadium developments. The memoir highlights deeply emotional milestones, beginning with his return to Old Trafford following a life-threatening brain hemorrhage in 2018.

Ferguson also pays tribute to his late wife, Lady Cathy Ferguson, and explores significant fixtures, including Manchester United's 2-1 victory over Manchester City in the 2024 FA Cup final. He notably omitted the 1999 Champions League final, instead choosing the 3-2 semi-final win over Juventus as Roy Keane's finest performance.
