Over the years he has won every trophy going.
Sure, he never won the European Cup this year, but remember it isn't him that was on the pitch. The team just couldn't cut it. Not his fault. So he will go out and buy people, and sell some too.
You can't knock the guy.

> He's not necessaily the best tactician in the game
Understatement of the day. His ongoing love affair with the 4-4-1-1 formation cost us the title last year. Only Kevin Keegan is worse when it comes to tactics
And a certain Danish goalkeeper, who wasn't a bad investment.
Regardless though, Ferguson is, always has been, and always will be a motivational manager. He's not necessaily the best tactician in the game, and he's not necessarily the most shrewd in the transfer market (that would be Wenger) but he does a very good job of motivating and developing the players he has. Admittedly he does this by intimidaton and discipline, but it works.
