He emphasized that the UEFA Champions League is a major tournament that Manchester United should always participate in and strive for the title, and that this desire for victory and the pursuit of glory has never diminished due to his retirement.

Despite United's unsatisfactory performance in the Champions League in recent years, Sir Alex Ferguson's love and support for United has never changed.

In addition to his love of soccer, Sir Alex Ferguson also talked about his retirement and his health. He said he was lucky to have maintained a good memory and kept his brain active by reading books and doing quiz games.
