Alex Ferguson is getting worried about his team's recent poor form against Arsenal. He just can't understand it,
Man U are the biggest club in Europe, have all the best players etc, but every time they play the Gunners, they get beaten.
So Alex gives Arsene Wenger a call and explains his problem. Arsene is very understanding and invites Alex down to
watch his team training. So Alex turns up in London and spends a day watching the Arsenal players.
At the end of the training session he says to Arsene "I still don't understand, we seem to do all the same things in
training that you do, but you still beat us all the time". "Ah" says Mr Wenger, "I don't think its anything to do with the training.
I think its because my players are more intelligent than yours".
Alex looks a bit peeved and asks Arsene "What the hell do you mean by that?".
"Well" says Arsene, "We also train our boys in lateral thinking".
To demonstrate his point he calls over Dennis Bergkamp. "Dennis, here's a problem for you.
He's your father's son, but he's not your brother; who is he?". "That's easy" says Bergkamp, Its me." "Correct" says Arsene.
Alex is very impressed. He goes back to Manchester and next day in training he calls over David Beckham.
"David, I've been talking to Arsene Wenger and he reckons his players are more intelligent than ours".
"That's bollocks, Boss", is Beckham's considered reply. "OK", says Alex, "I've got a question for you.
He's your father's son, but he's not your brother. Who is he?" Beckham looks blank and replies
"Need some time to think about this one boss, can I tell you tomorrow?"
Alex agrees and Beckham goes home thinking about the problem. He asksPosh Spice,
but she hasn't a clue what he's talking about. He eventually decides to give Juan Sebastian Veron a call,
thinking that as Arsenal have a lot of foreign players, maybe he will understand.
"Hello Juan, its David. I've got a question for you. He's your father's son, but he's not your brother. Who is he?".
"That's easy", says Juan, "Its me". So Beckham calls over Alex Ferguson the next day in training and says
"Morning Boss, I've got the answer to that question" "OK. What is it?" asks Alex.
"Its Juan Sebastian Veron" replies the confident Beckham. "You stupid bastard" shouts Alex,
"Its NOT Veron.............Its Dennis Bergkamp!"
