"Super-agent nicknamed Jorge Mendes believes that only God could have replaced Alex Ferguson at the wheel of Manchester United, but he is currently coaching London's Chelsea. Ferguson left Old Trafford in 2013, having won 38 trophies during his 27-year career at the club. Neither David Moyes nor Louis van Gaal managed to lead the team to success during their short time at the club. Mendes says that if Ferguson were still coaching the Red Devils, they would play much better. "It's totally impossible to find a person like Sir Alex Ferguson, because he is a god and a genius," the agent told BBC Sport. "In England right now, there is only one - Jose Mourinho." "Alex Ferguson's leadership ensures that you immediately have 12 or 15 points more. He has already retired, but he is the kind of person whose presence is really felt." Mendes, representing Mourinho, also took the opportunity to talk more about the Portuguese coach. "He will definitely stay for a long time. He will become the Alex Ferguson of Chelsea." "He loves the fans, loves the city, and I think he will stay here for more than a decade."
