A team does not become consistent in one week, a month or even a season. Achieving stability, especially in the top tier, demands the utmost level of endurance.

The actual character of a team is portrayed under the strenuous challenges that it faces; be it the jeers of the away fans or the cheers from the home ones, be it ending up on the losing side or coming out as winners and be it conceding in the opening minutes of the game or scoring in the dying moments. Over the years one club that has made winning and being resolute a run-of-the-mill job is Manchester United.

In 1986, a gentleman from Scotland arrived at Old Trafford to change the face of World Football. Regarded by many as the Best Manager of all time, it was none other than Sir Alex Ferguson. A paramount figure in United’s dominance and success over the years, Ferguson won 38 trophies, including 13 Premier League titles, five FA Cups, two UEFA Champions League titles and the famous treble in 1998–99 making him the most celebrated manager of all time.

The 26 years of Sir Alex with Manchester United were the clubs redefining era making them one of the top dogs on the European stage.

The club is the home to 65 titles, most in England, and 4th in Europe after Bayern Munich, Real Madrid and Barcelona. The benchmark of consistency set by United in their 138 years of illustrious history is second to none.
