Sir Alex Ferguson personally signed Nani in 2007

The Portuguese winger was signed by the legendary Scottish manager in 2007 and made 230 appearances over eight years at United.

And now at Fenerbahce in Turkey, Nani is well aware of how much he owes his boss at Old Trafford.

“I think there is no one in the world who can be compared with Alex Ferguson," Nani told Turkish TV. 
"We know each other very well.

"We worked for six years together, but even one year is enough to understand how good a person and manager Ferguson is.

"You can easily notice how big a role he is playing in the world of football. When I was playing for Manchester United, I could see that Ferguson was everything for the club.

"Sometimes the team were not doing well, but with a single word he managed to change everything and won the match."

After Ferguson retired, Nani fell out of favour at Old Trafford, making just 11 appearances in 2013-14 as United finished seventh in the Premier League and replacement boss David Moyes failed to see out the season.

And Nani believes there was no continuity between the two managers, which had a serious effect on the squad.

"Moyes took responsibility and came to Manchester United in the hard times," Nani added.

"He came after Ferguson, who won 26 titles within 25 years, and this put a huge responsibility on Moyes‘ shoulders.

"Continuing after Ferguson, taking over the managerial responsibility, caused pressure on him. This was the whole case.

"We had a system that we worked with Ferguson on for years and this changed with Moyes.

"Moyes had a different system and while we were trying to get used to it, things didn’t go well."
