On 1999 Man Utd being better than current Liverpool
I would say so wouldn’t I, but let’s see when the season has finished. We’re just past halfway and there are many, many games to go. Last season the race between Liverpool and City was amazing. You look at Liverpool now and they have 33 wins and five draws from the last 38 games and that’s a decent season, 104 points. It was close between them both last season. They both have half a season to play.
That [1999] showed as a squad we could cope with three tournaments. It was an amazing season, an amazing group. The personalities, the camaraderie. I’m sure with Liverpool, they can win all three, so I’m not going to say no or yes, but let’s see in May.
You have to do it again and again and Sir Alex is the only one who has won it three times [in a row]. He had an exceptional way of motivating us and getting us ready – a way of just letting trophies be trophies. Win them and move forward.
