Ferguson: Beckham has proved us all wrong at Man Utd

Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has paid tribute to fellow retiree David Beckham. Beckham plays his last senior game this weekend for PSG.

Fergie said: "When he went to America, I didn't think there was a person in this place who thought he could really have a career.

"And yet he still went on to play for his country and played for Milan and PSG in European ties.

"He is an amazing person. I think he has picked the right time.

"He is exactly the same as myself - he's got plenty of things to do with his life. He's a young man and I'd imagine fashion will be his role."
