"As a manager I depended on my memory," Ferguson said. "You see games today where some managers take notes during the match. I never did that.

"I always depended on my memory and when I went to the dressing room that was very powerful for me.

"I can't understand why a manager would take notes during the game. Put your head down to write and you miss a goal?"
