Saha: I scored twice and still got Sir Alex \'hairdryer\'

The 33-year-old has enjoyed a great start to his Spurs career, having netted three times in as many games, and will face his ex-manager when Manchester United visit White Hart Lane on Sunday. The Frenchman will never forget the time he first felt the notorious ‘hairdryer’ though, despite having netted twice before half-time in what was only his second game for United. “When I headed towards the changing room, I was feeling proud,” Saha told The Sun. “As soon as I sat down I was woken up in a violent way – Sir Alex Ferguson rendered me deaf. \"He was going mad and I quickly understood why. He was unhappy because we came in with only a three-goal lead when we should’ve wrapped the game up. “He was furious about my missed chances and reminded me that this is the very top level. I woke up even more sharply when 45 minutes later Everton had come back to 3-3. “Only a Ruud van Nistelrooy stoppage-time winner helped me escape the nightmare.” Saha was speaking ahead of the launch of his autobiography, and revealed that he conducted and interview with Ferguson, for He also praised the Scot for his support during four-and-a-half injury-hit years at Old Trafford. The forward is currently with the French national squad, having earned a re-call due to his impressive club form. He will be hoping to perform well against Germany on Wednesday in order to cement a previously unlikely place in France’s European Championships squad.
