Paul Ince: Sir Freud was right when he called me a pretentious drama actor back then, we had a good relationship

Manchester United former player Paul Ince recently interviewed the Manchester Evening News and recalled Ferguson's insult to himself.

Ferguson's poisonous tongue burns like venom, and cannot be shaken off like Velcro. You just need to ask Paul Ince to know this. Paul Ince played for Manchester United. After transferring to Inter Milan, he returned to the Premier League from Inter Milan and joined Manchester United's arch rival Liverpool.

Before the Premier League Double Red Chamber in April 1998, Ferguson focused on deploying tactics against Paul Ince in the locker room. The camera footage recorded a classic scene. At that time, Ferguson was roaring and suddenly threw out a humiliation that had been recorded in history: "If he was allowed to ride on you, this bastard would be so happy. Let me be hard!"

Ferguson patted the tactical board and emphasized: "You'll be fine if you stare at him. Do you know what kind of virtue this guy is? He's just a big-time Charlie!"

The word big-time Charlie became synonymous with Ferguson's conceited personality in suppressing the locker room. In 2008, Ferguson admitted that this was a mistake and promised that he would never allow the shooting of tactical meetings. But the one who agrees with this evaluation the most is Ince himself.

Ince smiled and said to the Manchester Evening News: "Am I a pretentious drama artist? Of course! You must be a little arrogant when playing for the world's top clubs, as long as it doesn't get annoying. To some extent, Ferguson is right, but this cannot affect our relationship as close as father and son."

Ten years later, when Ferguson played against Ince, who coached Blackburn, he took the initiative to resolve his grudges: "I regret saying that, the camera entered the locker room for the first time and made me lose control. Although Paul He has a hot personality, but never disappoints people."

In response to this, Paul Ince responded freely: "People always misunderstand that we have a bad relationship. In fact, when I coached, I learned from him every day. His words were just a provocation. Nowadays, players may care, but I am Paul Ince!"

Now, this pair of masters and apprentices still maintain a wonderful relationship of enemies and friends. Ferguson, who is over 70 years old, often receives cross-border calls from his old disciples, and their battlefield has been transferred to the snooker table. Ince smiled and said, "I always like to go to his house to play billiards, which makes him so cruel."

Thirty years of grudges and revenge are all in this statement.
