Andy Farrell is a big Man City fan but he had great admiration for Alex Ferguson's Man United:
Murray Kinsella Reports from Portugal AS YOU MIGHT have heard before, Andy Farrell is a big Man City fan.
“It takes a strong character, a strong mentality as a team to go to somebody’s backyard that means a lot to them and play your own game.” It almost pains him to admit that Man United are one of the great examples of a club that had sustained success. You will have gathered by now that Farrell is massive on the mental side of sport. He has overseen the tactical transformation of this Ireland team’s attack, but he appears to place an even greater emphasis on their mental skills.
“It’s great for us,” he said, very convincingly. “It’s the same as Johnny [Sexton] pulling out the last game [against Australia in November]. It’s great for us, learning, adapting, making sure we build trust in others.
