Against the backdrop of further major changes at Manchester United, Darren Fletcher temporarily took control of the club. Following the dismissal of Ruben Amorim, Fletcher was appointed acting head coach of the "Red Devils." And most interestingly, he openly stated that before making this decision, he first spoke with Sir Alex Ferguson.
Fletcher stated that the incident "fell to him unexpectedly," and everything was resolved very quickly. But one thing remains unchanged for him: consulting Ferguson before making important decisions is like a club tradition.
"It's hard to believe, but everything happened very quickly. The first thought that occurred to me was to talk to Sir Alex. I'll tell him about all the important decisions I make in football," Fletcher said.
According to him, Ferguson's advice always comes down to one thing: to act for the club's benefit. Fletcher also considers this path to be his main rule.
The most impressive part is that for Fletcher, managing Manchester United stands above even his bravest dreams. He didn't even imagine that such an opportunity could come. Perhaps that's why he rated the situation as "better unexpected" - because there was no time to think too much and hesitate.
"If they had told me about this beforehand, I probably would have missed this opportunity," he said.
Fletcher said that his familiarity with the team atmosphere, the people inside the club, and the players also helped him make a quick decision. That is, he didn't come here as a "stranger" - he is a person who feels the breath, pressure, and demand of the club from within.
In short, a temporary chapter of a new era opened at Old Trafford. Now fans are waiting for one thing: how will Fletcher use this opportunity not just as a "power," but as a real opportunity? In football, sometimes the biggest stories begin with unexpected decisions.
