利物浦發表聲明支持重病中的費格遜：「強大的宿敵，最好的朋友。費格遜在我們最艱難的時候支持著我們，我們希望費爵爺盡快完全康復。在這期間，我們會盡一切能力幫助曼聯及費格遜家庭。」

這是一個宿敵，這是一個終其一生，要把利物浦踢下神壇的宿敵。但足球的情感不超越生命，當年希斯堡慘案，費格遜二話不說，致電杜格利殊表明會盡一切能力幫助度過難關；今日費格遜病了，利物浦亦致以關心，要全力幫助費格遜平安度過。

足球是對抗，亦是友誼。

A great rival but also a great friend who supported this club during its most difficult time, it is hoped that Sir Alex will make a full recovery.

In the meantime, the club will offer its full support to Manchester United and also his family.
