How Paul Ince sent himself out of Man United: I told Sir Alex to f**k off

For six years, Paul Ince was an irreplaceable part of Manchester United's midfield, but one moment when he lost his self-control, he 'bought' himself a one-way ticket - to Milan.

Ince came to Inter in the summer of 1995, and what preceded it he told in the "Up Front" podcast. Similar to the situation with David Beckham a few years later, he also got into a conflict with Sir Alex Ferguson and that's where he ended his mission in Manchester.

"Everything happened after the game with Norwich. We were leading 3-1, played a very good match, I played quite well. In the last five minutes I tried to dribble past two players and I lost the ball. And that was it. We went into the dressing room, "high-fived" each other and said, "Great result." And then Sir Alex burst into the dressing room screaming. I thought: "Why is he going crazy like this, we just won 3-1", Ince said.

And Ferguson went straight at him.

"He pointed his finger at me and shouted: 'You're not Ryan Giggs or Andrei Kanchelskis. Your job is to pass the ball." I said back to him: "What the f**k are you talking about"? He started walking towards me and was getting closer to me. I didn't understand what was happening. I didn't care about the consequences. I told him, "Boss, you can f**k off!" I don't care, f**k off, do whatever you want. You complain, but we won."

It didn't end there.

"He said back, 'You can't talk to me like that,' and went at me. Brian Kidd jumped, Lee Sharpe jumped and that was the end of the story," said Ince.

But when the season ended, he packed his bags and moved to Inter in a transfer worth €10,500,000.
