Manchester United is a particularly interesting outlier, as it lies furthest above the upper limit of the outlier. Sir Alex Ferguson managed the team for over 25 years; Ferguson has been a part of Manchester United and the Premier League long enough to know the right tactics to use for each club he faces. He had a long-term strategy for the club; he created a large recruitment network bringing together world-class players such as Cristiano Ronaldo and youth team players such as David Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville. This has improved the team's morale, allowing them to finish in the top 3 in the last 13 seasons and win the title 7 of the last. 13
