He was a good player but eventually when he moved to Newcastle proved to be not a great player but a perfect Fergie player who didnt moan,groan and won titles as a component of a multi talented and committed squad.

Nicky butt says it well. Man Utd while trying to get better and they have a long way to go don’t have a back bone it’s eroded since Ferguson. If Utd don’t score first they don’t seem to get back into the game like other teams. Utd have a long way to go. Utd fan.
We can all big up our own team and it is even easier when you are on a platform to dis another... Butt was always a fierce player... almost a Keane mini me... I admire and respect their love for United... but what I admire and respect more is their honesty, shown here again by Nicky... saying what he sees without bias and I always have time for that... whether it be positive or negative... truth always wins out!
Nicky is being diplomatic and plays it down ..Not sure why he’s uncomfortable talking about it ..But it was a combination of things made the 92 great ..But the schooling and fighting for each other their biggest difference ..
@@NBl-qw8cg Very true. They really would, class of 92’ were a fabulous team. Swept all before them, leagues, cups, doubles, double doubles, trebles you name it they had it.

It’s very simple. Utd struck lucky with getting an academy class who all turned out to be decent, and got there act together business wise before the others, giving them the power to spend when needed on the best players available. Once teams could compete financially in terms of buying players like Chelsea and then Man City, their huge advantage was gone, now it became a more even playing field
@TheMrbc74 Yeah but ManUtd still won 2 more PL's (should've been at least 4 more, with VAR would've been) than Chelski from the Abramovic period until Ferguson left and people always pretend Man$ity's money upset ManUtd the most but not only was I originally pleased for a team (Chelski) other than ManUtd to frustrate Arsenal when Chelsea were bought but Man$ity coming 5/6 years after Abramovic's arrival was actually the most inconvenient for Chel$ea who were the only 'sugardaddy' team in the PL until then so if ManUtd or Arsenal were having an off season or in the middle of building a stronger team that needed time Chel$ea would easily take advantage until Man$ity came along plus again having Man$ity made for a fairer competition overall if ManUtd unluckily lost to Chelsea because of the decisions they always got then ManCity could beat Chelsea to even it out a bit (although still didn't stop ManUtd being robbed of the 4 in a row in 2009/10) plus Man$ity achieved greater things and winning in better styles that Chelsea couldn't even buy.
can happen and it did, look at Southampton. if Southampton didn't sell there players they would have won the prem. you just got to look at the amount of amazing players they have produced.
7:27 How can Butt not remember he never finished lower than 3rd for ManUtd lol Also ManUtd only lost by the narrowest of margins the season before the treble yet he thought it was a lot more comprehensive. Maybe he got it mixed up with 2001/02 or 2003/04 but still a bit weird because ManUtd easily could've had 6 PL's in a row 1995/96 to 2000/01 especially if Scholes gets the pen he should've got at 2-2 at Highbury Nov97 plus injuries cost ManUtd that season and the fact they played ChampionsLeague & Arsenal were barely in Europe at all. Only started finishing 3rd when the team were experimenting new things and having to change the formation to fit the new signings in but keep other quality players on. Still were doing better in ChampionsLeague than Arsenal though. Or maybe it's because the standards were higher in Butt's time at the club. He probably felt anything other than 1st was nothing.
Its a massive Error in Judgement on behalf of United fans to make any kind of comparisons in between today and Ferguson era. Ferguson was the BOSS with no Director Of Football, No financial tightropes, no FFP no PSR no nothing. The owner didnt care about his profits.

@dresantorini1770 No it was 5 trophies/pieces of silverware in 1 calender year not season. 3 in 1 and the other season they only won one-game competitions (CharityShield & SuperCup and the shield isn't counted as a major trophy, whenever it's been ManUtd winning that people never count it or say they were trophyless if it ended up being all they won including the players at least in the Ferguson era where there was higher standards and I don't know if they view the SuperCup the same).
@dresantorini1770 Plus the LeagueCup is often known as the MickeyMouseCup and they only had to beat a lower league Birmingham in the final which went to pens. To win 5 trophies in 1 season you would've had to have won at least 1 probably both of the big 2 trophies PL & CL (at least in seperate seasons and pretty much all the other trophies up for grabs in the next season after qualifying for them by winning CL) which of course Liverpool around that time didn't win either competition and didn't compete in CL fullstop in 2000/01 where they won those 3 trophies. Not saying Murphy was a bad player though...and he did well with Fulham (or very well actually for Fulham's standards).
Cos they had more money than anyone until Chelsea got bought out. United were spending 30 million on a CB over 20 years ago, crazy. Their biggest rival for a bit was Newcastle, so they just bought their goalscorer to stop them 😂😂 and they have the audacity to call out other teams for buying success, even though they're arguably outspending them today still
@Two_Seat_Pete_FatA55 They bought RioFerdinand with their own money but that only cancelled out Arsenal getting SolCampbell who was even more in his peak from Spurs for FREE he shouldn't even be signing from Spurs to Arsenal really, nor for free and they probably couldn't have afforded him for his real valuation or only if they did as a part exchange for 1of their own stars and at least ManUtd earned the money unlike Chelsea who didn't deserve to have an endless supply at all. Ferdinand may not have been worth 30mil at the time ManUtd got him (some would've said he was he was rated highly then) but they spent what was required to get him as it was well worth it for his longevity and I don't understand how him being a defender makes it more ridiculous. All positions are important and a year before that Juventus bought Buffon a goalkeeper for I think 32 mil or something. Ferdinand ended up being part of a defence that holds a PL record 15 years on most amount of mins without conceding and still clinging on to another good record also from 15 years ago the ChampionsLeague unbeaten game run. It's not like ManUtd always got defenders for loads. Most of that solid ManUtd defence were cheap or from the academy.
@Tebohomotitimi 2002 And Arsenal got SolCampbell for free in the year you said when he was even more in his prime. The Ferdinand signing only cancelled that out (although Arsenal had already won the league in Sol's first season by then). He shouldn't have gone to Arsenal from Spurs even if Arsenal could afford him at his real valuation which they couldn't unless they part exchanged maybe, at least go to ManUtd if you're leaving Spurs for trophies (or abroad). ManUtd with Ferguson wouldn't usually pay that much at all for defenders/GK's but he was worth it for longevity. Juventus also bought Buffon in 2001 for more than Rio cost ManUtd in 2002.

ManUtd "Paid refs" to disallow their own perfectly valid goals even in the treble season (the most successful one in the club's history) and had the hardest cup draws in both FAcup & ChampionsLeague 🤔 ManUtd really wanted to "buy" all that yeah whatever.
Not quite everyone's but at least although exaggerated you didn't mention the decisions miff like so many clueless people have. A bit more originality, at least despite it still being an anti-ManUtd comment.
@@davidg5305 been a utd fan since 1982 when they were winning eff all. Don't tell other people whos a fan or not. I'm sick of them undermining utd managers from the sidelines. Scholes talks absolute cr*p all the time (but he's my favourite utd player of all time). They were really unfair to LVG but never criticised Ole. Loved them as players but not as pundits. They all failed as managers and like previous comment you'd think we never had any other players apart from them.
@@goldenboots507 Not a United fan but I think you are spot on. The constant comparison and expectation to match the Fergie dynasty seems to undermine and stunt a lot of the new players.
They dominated football for so long because they had such a huge financial advantage over other clubs when the Premier League started in 1992/93 season.
@@sonnyv1055yeah easy to forget they never spent any money and all the players played for free. They definitely didn't buy Thier rivals too scorer halfway through the season or break the transfer record multiple times.
Not really, then why didn't they win the league in the 80s and the 70s then? The money Utd earned was generated by them. Didn't mean alot from 67-68 onwards did it?
They were the first club woke up to the reality of English Premier League. First club to rebuild the stadium and increased the capacity ,first club to use the club merchandise to boost their income and so on. They bought well but never in huge numbers, only foreign players they had were Cantona,Schmeichel in the days of Serie A was unmatched with their ridiculous super star names ,massive transfer fees..They achieved everything with sheer hard work,good planning..They won things and built on it to attract better players.
@damifeisaac Another boring clueless so called football fan with no knowledge so he just echoes what other jealous fools regurgitate. Get some proper knowledge.
Football just seemed to produced different players back in the 90s, it was a different game, but how much better was it...can you imagine a Duncan Ferguson or a Roy Keane today...
Other way round. Had VAR existed when ManUtd were the best team they would've won so much more than they did and more records (i.e City shouldn't have been first PL team to win 4 in a row ManUtd were robbed in 2009/10), looking at all big decisions for & against throughout the years (anti-ManUtd fans like you only think of the one's in favour of ManUtd and every team get decisions for & against but ManUtd aren't allowed to be normal they have to be robbed most games for you to be satisfied, I know ManUtd had games where they'd have pretty much nothing and so many times both good & bad often resulting in ManUtd winning and people like you only wanted to count the good ones they got) ManUtd should've won more PL's looking at this and the points margins of winning title's/losing title's, would've won more FAcups & more ChampionsLeague's too. Always had to be the most deserving ChampionsLeague winner in terms of looking at the whole campaign to win it. Never won it because of bad decisions or a lucky cup run because the year it would've been an easy route 2004 they were robbed vs Porto when Scholes was played ONside by 4 Porto players.
They dominated Prem Becuz Sky Sports started feeding them humongous money 😂Fergie had PGMOL in his pockets..Yeah let's not talk about that becuz we want to paint a Saint picture about Pep's son and his United😂
Liverpool and Newcastle spent as much money as United and many of Fergie's best signings such as Cantona, Schmeichel and Solskjaer were relatively cheap and the class of 92 were all homegrown. Once again you have proved that you have no idea what you're talking about with regards to English football.
Fergie time just means attacking until the end wearing teams down and scoring late goals but anti-ManUtd fans like you think it means goals when too much time was added on. They weren't highest scorers in the PL constantly just because of a few late goals that you think were later than should've been allowed (especially as by a few I literally mean a few over the course of many seasons if at all, if I'm wrong you tell me which ones were after the whistle should've blown because the game I remember the most for so called controversial amount of time added on was ManUtd 4-3 ManCity in the season ManUtd were cheated out of 4 in a row by the way 2009/10...and they quickly verified after working it all out it was proven correct, there's also been several lies told about certain games ManUtd scored in the 97th minute or 99th or something like that when you can look those games up and it says 93rd or 94th etc...3/4 mins added on is normal it would be abnornal if it were less).
Buying all the competitions best players and having refferees in the pocket. As soon as Chelsea and City started spending big money the drop off was inevitable.
@askido351 No those who DIDN'T watch it back then regurgitate that same bs but hope you never get questioned because you don't know how to back anything up or you think you do at first then give up very early because you're way too predictable. I certainly wouldn't have been a fan of ManUtd if they were as the likes of you boring fools echo. Try to be more original think for yourself and also use the facts rather than the comments from clueless anti-ManUtd fans or people with bad memory.
The most corrupt referee ever was Martin Atkinson and he hated ManUtd (and Spurs). He loved Chelsea and before Abramovic (when he was a linesman) he helped Arsenal a lot.
What a player, just harder and more down to earth than these modern pampered lot.
He was a good player but eventually when he moved to Newcastle proved to be not a great player but a perfect Fergie player who didnt moan,groan and won titles as a component of a multi talented and committed squad.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 We all know how you did it. The refs were all united fans and or were scared of Alex! 😂
... because they could buy everybody else's best players. There you go, summed up quickly, no video required
Not quite everyone's but at least although exaggerated you didn't mention the decisions miff like so many clueless people have. A bit more originality, at least despite it still being an anti-ManUtd comment.
8 academy players?
Jim white is so pompous and entitled!! 🤮
Everyone in Scotland can’t stand him he embarrasses our country
Chooney!!

Leeds and Liverpool spent as much, if not more
As a utd fan im sick of the class of '92'.
Yeah, you’d swear nothing came before them and nothing after with all the media coverage 🙄
You're definitely not a United fan, because youd never get sick of the class of 92. A large part of the DNA of our club
@@davidg5305 been a utd fan since 1982 when they were winning eff all. Don't tell other people whos a fan or not. I'm sick of them undermining utd managers from the sidelines. Scholes talks absolute cr*p all the time (but he's my favourite utd player of all time). They were really unfair to LVG but never criticised Ole. Loved them as players but not as pundits. They all failed as managers and like previous comment you'd think we never had any other players apart from them.
@@goldenboots507facts
@@goldenboots507 Not a United fan but I think you are spot on. The constant comparison and expectation to match the Fergie dynasty seems to undermine and stunt a lot of the new players.
They bought all the most expensive players thats why. They also bought all the refs
Omg😂😂😂
They dominated football for so long because they had such a huge financial advantage over other clubs when the Premier League started in 1992/93 season.
The club was built on home grown academy talent. Beckham,Scholes,Giggs,butt , g Neville , Phil Neville. British talent that dominated europe
@@sonnyv1055yeah easy to forget they never spent any money and all the players played for free. They definitely didn't buy Thier rivals too scorer halfway through the season or break the transfer record multiple times.
Not really, then why didn't they win the league in the 80s and the 70s then? The money Utd earned was generated by them. Didn't mean alot from 67-68 onwards did it?
Do some research before commenting waffle.
They were the first club woke up to the reality of English Premier League. First club to rebuild the stadium and increased the capacity ,first club to use the club merchandise to boost their income and so on. They bought well but never in huge numbers, only foreign players they had were Cantona,Schmeichel in the days of Serie A was unmatched with their ridiculous super star names ,massive transfer fees..They achieved everything with sheer hard work,good planning..They won things and built on it to attract better players.
Butt and Shearer could be twins

Another boring clueless so called football fan with no knowledge so he just echoes what other jealous fools regurgitate. Get some proper knowledge.
Football just seemed to produced different players back in the 90s, it was a different game, but how much better was it...can you imagine a Duncan Ferguson or a Roy Keane today...
Built to last eh Nicky? lol
FO
Jim White makes me ill
He looks ill .
It was fixed for Man U for sure. Extra and being helped by the referees 😂
Other way round. Had VAR existed when ManUtd were the best team they would've won so much more than they did and more records (i.e City shouldn't have been first PL team to win 4 in a row ManUtd were robbed in 2009/10), looking at all big decisions for & against throughout the years (anti-ManUtd fans like you only think of the one's in favour of ManUtd and every team get decisions for & against but ManUtd aren't allowed to be normal they have to be robbed most games for you to be satisfied, I know ManUtd had games where they'd have pretty much nothing and so many times both good & bad often resulting in ManUtd winning and people like you only wanted to count the good ones they got) ManUtd should've won more PL's looking at this and the points margins of winning title's/losing title's, would've won more FAcups & more ChampionsLeague's too. Always had to be the most deserving ChampionsLeague winner in terms of looking at the whole campaign to win it. Never won it because of bad decisions or a lucky cup run because the year it would've been an easy route 2004 they were robbed vs Porto when Scholes was played ONside by 4 Porto players.
They dominated Prem Becuz Sky Sports started feeding them humongous money 😂Fergie had PGMOL in his pockets..Yeah let's not talk about that becuz we want to paint a Saint picture about Pep's son and his United😂
Are u on drugs?? Yh fergie success is down to a broadcaster paying him huge money u mug !!
Liverpool and Newcastle spent as much money as United and many of Fergie's best signings such as Cantona, Schmeichel and Solskjaer were relatively cheap and the class of 92 were all homegrown. Once again you have proved that you have no idea what you're talking about with regards to English football.
Wats with laughing emoji … wat u said wasn’t funny or fact bloody idiot
You are clueless. Why do some people find it so hard to give credit where it’s due. That hate can’t be healthy
He's forgotten how northern referees cheated for United to win titles. Have you people forgotten what Mike Riley did for United?
😂😂😂 cope better!!!!
Don't stop crying, you'll feel better tomorrow.
Still bitter eh?
lol loser
Grow up you absolute melt. How are you even allowed to make a comment when you are this thick
They had league sanctioned cheating affectionately referred to as fergie time.
Fergie time just means attacking until the end wearing teams down and scoring late goals but anti-ManUtd fans like you think it means goals when too much time was added on. They weren't highest scorers in the PL constantly just because of a few late goals that you think were later than should've been allowed (especially as by a few I literally mean a few over the course of many seasons if at all, if I'm wrong you tell me which ones were after the whistle should've blown because the game I remember the most for so called controversial amount of time added on was ManUtd 4-3 ManCity in the season ManUtd were cheated out of 4 in a row by the way 2009/10...and they quickly verified after working it all out it was proven correct, there's also been several lies told about certain games ManUtd scored in the 97th minute or 99th or something like that when you can look those games up and it says 93rd or 94th etc...3/4 mins added on is normal it would be abnornal if it were less).
One word: referees.
Jealous Liverpool fan 😂
Cause Sky had a 10% stake in the club 😂
Many a true word said in jest 👍
Take away the goals they scored in Fergie time. 😂
They would have been below Spurs every season.
Fergie was a genious!
You certainly aren't 😂 genius
And the referees who helped him

Money that's why
The prem wasn't even half as competitive as it is nowadays.
Lets all reminisce over 20 years ago
Buying all the competitions best players and having refferees in the pocket. As soon as Chelsea and City started spending big money the drop off was inevitable.
He needs to butt out mateeee
The rest of the league was so poor which is why. No City or Liverpool. Man U had the most money.
Those of us who watched know thr refreeing corruption that took place for years. The premier league is dodgy
you're definitely a n0nce
@askido351
No those who DIDN'T watch it back then regurgitate that same bs but hope you never get questioned because you don't know how to back anything up or you think you do at first then give up very early because you're way too predictable.
I certainly wouldn't have been a fan of ManUtd if they were as the likes of you boring fools echo. Try to be more original think for yourself and also use the facts rather than the comments from clueless anti-ManUtd fans or people with bad memory.
The most corrupt referee ever was Martin Atkinson and he hated ManUtd (and Spurs). He loved Chelsea and before Abramovic (when he was a linesman) he helped Arsenal a lot.
