Former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has gushed praise on his old rival Arsene Wenger.

The two set the standard in the Premier League in the 1990s and early 2000s.

Despite being bitter rivals in those years, Ferguson and Wenger have developed mutual respect in their later years.

And Ferguson was not afraid to speak out in praise of Wenger, as the Frenchman received recognition at the Nordoff Robbins charity award dinner.

Ferguson said via video: "The career you had as a manager at Arsenal was absolutely fantastic - an absolute legend.

"I loved the competition against you.

"We had some great times and it's wonderful you're getting this award tonight.

"So good luck, my blessing [is] with you."
