12.4 Soccer


Soccer fans around the world know Manchester United as a top team full of great players, including the Korean star Ji-sung Park. But when it comes to local fans, the most famous person on the team isn’t one of the players — it’s the head coach, Alex Ferguson.

 He led Manchester United to numerous championships. To stay number one, Ferguson has always maintained several principles. First of all, he believes the team is more important than individual players, no matter how great they are. If any player ruins the teamwork, Ferguson removes him from the team, even if he is a star player. 

Also, he’s willing to pick up young players. By signing little-known players based on their potential, he’s discovered such stars as David Beckham and Christiano Ronaldo. And finally, he does everything to win. He’s good at changing his strategies unexpectedly according to each situation. He also places players in the right position at the right time to win games.

For more than 20 years, Alex Ferguson has been leading Manchester United to more championship than any other team. Theres no doubt that he is one of the sporting worlds greatest leaders.
