If you’re a journalist, asking stupid questions of Sir Alex Ferguson is a risky proposition at the best of times. When he’s in a bad mood, things get much, much worse. And moods don’t get much worse than seeing your team lose 3-1 in the Champions League final. I’m slightly confused as to why whoever asked the Manchester United manager which Barcelona player he’d most like to sign with infinite funds at his disposal, but he certainly deserved the response he got:
