Iconic quips from Sir Alex Ferguson and Jose Mourinho have made their way into the Oxford English Dictionary.
The legendary former Manchester United manager and uber-successful ex- Chelsea boss were both renowned for coming up with memorable phrases during their time in the Premier League, whether it was in the heat of angry post-match interviews or during witty weekly press conferences.
The Oxford English Dictionary has issued its quarterly update which includes a fresh batch of football-related terms ahead of this year's World Cup in Qatar. Acknowledging the additions, the OED said: "There's a World Cup kicking off in November, and while the OED already covered a large number of football terms, from catenaccio to nutmeg to water carrier , this select batch of fifteen additions fills a few gaps in our formation."
