They are both absolutely fantastic.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The former Vitesse glovesman worked with Sir Alex Ferguson during his spell at United from 1996 until 2002, and made it clear that the Scottish manager is a great motivator.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ferguson keeps a close eye on the physical condition of all his players,&#8221; he said. &#8220;That is the reason why players like Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes still play.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ferguson knows exactly when to rest them and when to play them. That is not easy, but Ferguson has a huge drive to get the best out of every player. He always knows how to motivate you.&#8221; \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Van der Gouw also gave his thoughts on Saturday&#8217;s game, and feels his old club will exact revenge for their defeat two years ago.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was in Rome when United took on Barcelona in the Champions League final,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It was a real shame that they lost that game.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I have a feeling that they will have more luck this time, though. They have my support on Saturday.
