'He was evil' - Man Utd legend claims Sir Alex Ferguson's management style would land him in PRISON if he worked in the current era

Premier League

Chelsea

Manchester United

<p>The former United left-back played under Ferguson between 2006 and 2013 and saw just how fiery the Scot can be, including the infamous 'hairdryer treatment'. The ex-France international quipped that had Ferguson been in management today, he would likely go to prison.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>He told the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qtQvgFXFlY" target="_blank"><em>SDS podcast</em></a>: "If Ferguson was coaching right now he would probably end up in jail. There's no way Ferguson would not be in jail with what he would do to. Do you know how many players I saw cry because he gave them the hairdryer, throwing boots - he was evil."</p>

WHAT EVRA SAID

<p>While Ferguson's managerial style was not for the faint-hearted, he will go down as one of football's greatest managers and brought unprecedented success to United. But his man-management would, perhaps, need tweaking to get the best out of players in the modern era.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Aside from yesteryear at United, the current team take on Chelsea in the Premier League on Friday, with the Europa League final to come next week.</p>
