Manchester United are becoming the neutrals' choice to win the Premiership this season.
With many fans becoming disillusioned with Chelsea's unmatched spending power and their perceived negative tactics, they are starting to consider the unthinkable and actually cheer on United in the two-team title race.
It is a situation Ferguson has rarely experienced during his two decades at the United helm, and not one he is entirely sure how to deal with.
"The neutrals do want us to win," said the Scot.
"It will take me a long time to get used to that but I am working on it."
