Legendary Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson banned the use of his popular nickname at Old Trafford having only spared two players from his infamous hairdryer treatment.
The iconic Scot was in charge of the Red Devils between 1986 and 2013, leading the club to 13 Premier League titles, two Champions League s and a whole host of other trophies. Alongside that, the Scot also developed a reputation of having a furious temper should his players not necessarily perform the way expected of them.

Speaking to The Telegraph, the current Aston Villa star said: “You can’t say ‘Fergie’ either,”
