Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish has paid compliment to rival boss Sir Alex Ferguson as the Scot celebrates 25 years at Manchester United this weekend.
The Reds boss believes that his fellow Glaswegian may have exceeded the success and glory of Sir Matt Busby in the 1960s.
"He has been fantastic for Manchester United and I think he has even surpassed the legend that was Sir Matt Busby with the achievements and success he has had," The Mirror quotes Dalglish as saying.
"To be anywhere for 25 years is unbelievable and every success he has had is testament to him and the football club.
"When you remember where the football club was when he came in I think it is a fantastic achievement where he has taken to them now."
The 69-year-old has won 37 trophies with the North West club including 12 Premier League titles, two Champions League trophies and a host of FA and League Cups.
