He brought unparalleled success to his club, winning 38 trophies during his reign. a statement he said: "The decision to retire is one that I have thought a great deal about and one that I have not taken lightly. It is the right time. It was important to me to leave an organisation the strongest possible shape and I believe I have done so." He added: "I must pay tribute my family. Their love and support have been essential."

Twitter said the news Sir Alex's retirement received four times more mentions than news the death Margaret Thatcher last month. The top names football were quick to pay homage the legendary manager. David Beckham tweeted: "Without him, I would never have achieved what I have done my career….I am truly honoured to have been guided the greatest manager football."
