@JM91 i am with you. If you read what i wrote properly you will get that as well! I hate the word legend being thrown around like trash for any retired player. Cheapens it.
@John Doe I agree John there was very little loyalty shown to many players of that era . Roy Keane was in my opinion our greatest ever captain and the way he was treated in the end was disgusting. United demand loyalty from the players but it’s very much a business at their end when a player isn’t preforming to the standard it doesn’t matter what you have previously done ur gone
@conrad black well he was ruthless just not in this. But his ruthlessness wasn’t always positive for the club, telling Stam that he has been sold at a gas station etc
@Ali Hassan At least players now have the freedom to move at the end of contracts. Not like before when clubs could hold them until they get a transfer fee
Well that is exactly how all players will answer nowadays to any manager as they have massive fat wages even the kids so don’t mind if I stay left out as I’m getting the pay.
I miss watching Berba play; it was pure artistry! The only player who could go from box to box and _still_ somehow keep up with the fast attacking play while _never_ going faster than walking pace. 😂
@Hegelian Dianetik don’t know how much you watched him mate but he didn’t need to the game was played around him he made football simple and his touch and tekkers was something else
@TheRo33a at the time Tottenham we’re short on strikers as Darren bent was injured regularly and pavlyuchenko had only signed the day before Campbell he was promised to get plenty of game time hence why he went to Tottenham but it didn’t work out and they resigned Defoe and Keane that jan
@Domancave this just isn’t true. Wigan were respected for their achievements, sure, but they were never a bigger or better club than Spurs. In 2009 the Spurs even demolished Wigan with 9-1.
What a player. I'm in Scotland, so I also appreciate Stiliyan Petrov. I'm also old enough to remember watching Hristo Stoichkov! Considering Bulgaria's size, you have had some *top* players over the years. :)
Respect to sir Alex for being up front with him. He could have given him loads of bollocks about what a great move this is for him, but he was honest - this deal hinges on you, what do you say?
Berbatov was already at spurs balling out if the deal hadn’t gone through berbatov would’ve stayed at spurs, would’ve been there when bale became a beast and would’ve played for us in the ucl or he may have had another offer from another big European club come through
This is a no Brainerd. Alot of many Manchester United Club legends will never be praised enough. Most who wore thr shirt sacrificed so much for the club and made decisions that they weren't comfortable with for the growth of the club. No player can ever be bigger than a Club especially not one as deeply rooted as ManchesterUnited FC. A club, a people and a culture built on the backs of millions and millions of people. GGMU
"No Fergie, it's my time, forget the Bulgarian" Silence...... Scottish Accent on other end of the phone: "You got guts kid, you're playing the Champions League Final instead of Wazza on Saturday"
Was this a test, to show that he wanted to fight for his place? That he failed… There’s no reason that I can think of that would prevent them from making that signing if he didn’t go on loan. He wasn’t on a massive wage.
@User 2500 i was like 14 maybe and he told me t stop smoking so i walked up the road and continued so he came up grabbed the cig and docked it on my cheek
So he was going to sign with Wigan but SAF called and said he needed to go to Spurs on loan instead? This short doesn’t make any sense and is poorly put together.
Spurs were losing a striker in the last minutes of the transfer window. Frasier went the other way on loan for the rest of the season to make up numbers for Spurs.
Whole respect from the team
Berbatov is a legend!
@123borehamwood The word has no power anymore. Time for a new one.
Michael Jordan: _”That’s all I needed”_
That would have made me into Messi before Messi. Just out of spite and revenge.
Four years at the club . First season was his best he done a job for us no way a legend. I could pick 10 strikers in our history I’d have over him
@JM91 i am with you. If you read what i wrote properly you will get that as well!
I hate the word legend being thrown around like trash for any retired player. Cheapens it.
@Zehan Jalnawalla not everyone has to be a legend. Berbatov played his part in the story. Stop obsessing with words like legend
Fergie was ruthless, we need such character
You think the way Ten Hag handled Ronaldo wasn't ruthless? Really? Ten Hag is ruthless
I think that Erik Ten Hag does a splendit job for now and show who's the boss
He had no shame
@John Doe I agree John there was very little loyalty shown to many players of that era . Roy Keane was in my opinion our greatest ever captain and the way he was treated in the end was disgusting.

Frazier Campbell. Should be included somewhere on video details but can't see his name.
I was racking my brain trying to remember him!?
Ikr smh 🤦🏾♂️
Also doesn't say anywhere that Tottenham was the club in question for the change of loan
@Russell Chan OK Russell.
He said his first name in the video. Not hard to work out it’s Frazier Campbell after that.

😃🤭
Worked for Phil Jones
Well that is exactly how all players will answer nowadays to any manager as they have massive fat wages even the kids so don’t mind if I stay left out as I’m getting the pay.

Watch him on youtube
He was like Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th. Victims ran like crazy, he walked and always caught up ! 🤣
My all time favorite United striker, guy was the definition of poetry in motion
😂😂😂
@Hegelian Dianetik don’t know how much you watched him mate but he didn’t need to the game was played around him he made football simple and his touch and tekkers was something else
Smart from Fergie, gave the player the choice but he knew it was an illusion. There was only negatives to him saying no
@Lee Green greatest manager with only 3 champions leagues?
@Mia Mitten no, to see who's a team player lol
just a LOAN
@Mia Mitten it's not like he was getting sold it's just a loan
Football can be so cold sometimes
@TheRo33a at the time Tottenham we’re short on strikers as Darren bent was injured regularly and pavlyuchenko had only signed the day before Campbell he was promised to get plenty of game time hence why he went to Tottenham but it didn’t work out and they resigned Defoe and Keane that jan
@Domancave not true at all
@Domancave you smoke strong crack. Your dealer is amazing 😂
@Domancave this just isn’t true. Wigan were respected for their achievements, sure, but they were never a bigger or better club than Spurs. In 2009 the Spurs even demolished Wigan with 9-1.
Tbf he was getting sent to Tottenham. Feel like it would have been ample times worse had he had to go international.
He deserves more respect, chose his club over himself
@Greg Mc Elhinney Wigan won the FA Cup and played in the Europa league while in the Championship. Spurs.......ugh 🤔
@Not Real debatable because he was going to start at Wigan but would be behind defoe bent and Keane at spurs
@Not Real without hindsight, not necessarily. You’d be more likely to get more game time with Wigan rather than being a bench warmer
You ignored the part where he was going on loan to Wigan but instead got to go to spurs. It was better for his career.
I won't forget how a lot of fans trashed berba calling him a lazy player when we signed him. He was a genius I called it!
Ngl he was sly lazy
Reminds me of how people saw Glen Hoddle back in the day.
Respect . Fraizer campbell !!!
Michael Jordan: _”That’s all I needed”_
That would have made me into Messi before Messi. Just out of spite and revenge.
If Man Utd had proper owners during Sir Alex reign he would have won even more trophies
So that means its the owners who won you trophies not the manager??!?
@PALMARIUS🌴 Owners don't affect the outcome of a single game bro, Barcelona were just better that day
Facts
@PALMARIUS🌴 lmao hows that possible. Terry slip made u win 08. And no chance in hell u were beating PEPs barca
Thing is Fergie got everything he asked for
Respect 💯🙌
That's United ❤️💯
This shows what SAF had to do to run this Club under the glazers!
I think he was saying that Totenham wouldn't accept the deal unless they got a striker the other way for a replacement.
@Logan M.S.Z okay cool I wasn’t sure
Only got to sign a 30 mill player (probably 70 mill now) in exchange of a squad player? Yeah sounds terrible
@S R Leemingthe we're full owners of the club for 3 years by that point and had shares in the club for 5 years at that point.
Im from bulgaria and im proud we have a person like berba 🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬
why does he look like a vampire though? That hairline a Bulgarian thing ?
@Tr3ndZz berbatov legend in man utd
@badm0t0rf1nger Petrov was brilliant for the hoops, truly excellent.
What a player.
I'm in Scotland, so I also appreciate Stiliyan Petrov.
I'm also old enough to remember watching Hristo Stoichkov!
Considering Bulgaria's size, you have had some *top* players over the years. :)
@B Doc thanks bro❤
Steve Bruce, ex United. Probably was the reason the two of them were sat together in the first place. SAF was ruthless.
Respect to sir Alex for being up front with him. He could have given him loads of bollocks about what a great move this is for him, but he was honest - this deal hinges on you, what do you say?
Respect to Berbatov
Frazier Campbell - United Legend.
Back in my United’s FM Save, this man went on loan forever from one team to another team. A true ronin Frazier was….
He did great in his first spell at hull city. We won’t ever forget what he did that 07/08 season!
Michael Jordan: _”That’s all I needed”_
That would have made me into Messi before Messi. Just out of spite and revenge.
fergie had to be brutal to be sucessfull
Michael Jordan: _”That’s all I needed”_
That would have made me into Messi before Messi. Just out of spite and revenge.
Gave him 3 to 4 minutes to think about how his life would be hell if he refused lol……Fergie was a master!!
SAF always got the work done
Berbie was a silent killer. Class, skills, football intelligence at his pace. Many understand his brilliance now.
Respect Campbell 👍
Barba sublime! The epitome of cool!
No pressure, then 🤣💀
What surprised me is how he understood what sir alex said
Wonder where Frazier Campbell is now…sure he hasn’t retired from football - he was much younger than Giggs, Scholes, Butt, Nevs and that bunch
He’s 35 and currently without a club after leaving Huddersfield last year
"man management" comes at a cost
The fact that he understood what ferggie was saying ,for me makes him better than berba..
We should thank him if he say no then we will never see Dimitar Berbatov
Berbatov was already at spurs balling out if the deal hadn’t gone through berbatov would’ve stayed at spurs, would’ve been there when bale became a beast and would’ve played for us in the ucl or he may have had another offer from another big European club come through
Berbatov was pure 🔥 and swag
Definitely wouldn't want to be the player who returned to Man Utd a year after scuppering Fergie's big £30m transfer!
He had no choice.
It’s not as if it would have been a tough choice. Who wouldn’t want to go on loan to Tottenham instead of Wigan?
Can't say that he didn't do his bit for the club when they called on him, fair play
Happy Birthday Mr Berbatov🎉🎉
Frazer Campbell and Josh King were elite youth players
Frazier was brilliant at Sunderland

Most random loan deal ever since Tottenham didn’t need him or use him at all
I've watched this video twice and I still have no clue who that guy is 😆
Frazier Campbell
30 mil for the Bulgarian magician, what an absolute steal.
He'd be worth 100+ mil in this era...
At the time it was one of the highest price tags. It certainly weight on berbatovs shoulders a littlle bit.
The accent is so wonderful 👏
"No Fergie, it's my time, forget the Bulgarian"
Silence......
Scottish Accent on other end of the phone:
"You got guts kid, you're playing the Champions League Final instead of Wazza on Saturday"
Fancy getting played like that when SAF came up with the idea for him to be included in the deal. A pon in the chess game.
Sad really. But then something had to give.
Ferguson has never held back that the worst part of being a football manager is to let people that has worked endlessly hard go.
Fraizer campbell used to go to my high school. I remember him coming back to the school after he left to come see the geography teacher.
As a Liverpool fan I hate fergie for all the heartbreak he caused us but that man knew how to handle people
Frazier Campbell was excellent at Sunderland
Did he really refer to himself as "Sir Alex"? Lol
I know his grandma.... She volunteers in Kirkwood hospice charity shop in Huddersfield
Was this a test, to show that he wanted to fight for his place? That he failed… There’s no reason that I can think of that would prevent them from making that signing if he didn’t go on loan. He wasn’t on a massive wage.
Berbatov is such a legend
Brutal man management
Great man manager
Massive respect to Fraizer Campbell
Imagine if he never went on loan 😮
I’m telling him I want a 2 million pound bonus for moving no if buts or maybes
Sorry Frazier, but I think they'd have found a way if you had said no. Don't think the deal actually hinged on you
Some of that famous “man management“ from fergie
Professional!
Big respect
Scholes has let himself go
Fergie's true colours showing through. This isn't admirable from him, as if he was some sort of supreme leader.
To be fair Tottenham not the worse move. It was still a top 10 premier League Cup. Still playing top level football
Am I the only one who finds it weird that he would call himself Sir Alex while on the phone to one of his players?
Malaysia said "Don't be a ruler 📏 brother" 🗿
I don’t think he does, that’s just how Frazier addresses him even when impersonating him
Thank you Frazier
Modern day footballers would say nah mate
I like Frazier back then for the few times i saw him at man utd.
He calls himself Sir Alex?
Frazier Campbell the og fm wonderkid
Spurs got screwed twice there in one swift move 😩
He calls himself sir Alex.... Or narrator just to using that time...
do you think he rang the phone saying it’s sir alex
I need that withheld number 🔥🔥
What relevance do the deals have with each other?
He was going on loan to Wigan, then the deal with Spurs for Berbatov had him going to Spurs instead of Wigan as long as he accepted it.
Bruce was at Sunderland at the time. Not Wigan
David May is the GOAT
I remember the time...berbatov on the bench at the spurs and didnt want to play... its that true ???
Who is that ?
Right...Alex Ferguson himself rang up this nobody of a footballer.
Hello its sir alex here😂😂😂
Frazier cambells dad once docked a cig out on my face when i was a young lad true story 😂😂
@User 2500 i was like 14 maybe and he told me t stop smoking so i walked up the road and continued so he came up grabbed the cig and docked it on my cheek
Why?
Sitting , not 'sat'.
Who is he?
My name is Dimitar 🤣
Should have said no . Didnt want you COYS
Tbf I'd rather have played for Fulham over Wigan
it must be hard.
So he was going to sign with Wigan but SAF called and said he needed to go to Spurs on loan instead? This short doesn’t make any sense and is poorly put together.
Who’s this guy ?
Who is he
Berba was an overrated showpony who couldn't step up when it really mattered.
Thankyou❤
I don't get it, why does Campbell have to go on loan for Berbatov to sign??
Spurs were losing a striker in the last minutes of the transfer window. Frasier went the other way on loan for the rest of the season to make up numbers for Spurs.
Sometimes teams ask for a player in return as part of a transfer.
Respect chambel one reds always reds
Yrs l8r berba regretted movin to m utd.
