Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has revealed he made a mistake by not signing up Joe Hart for only £100,000 earlier in his career.
Hart has since joined arch rivals Manchester City for £600,000 from Shrewsbury and has become one of the Premier League's most consistent keepers and England's No. 1.
Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live, Ferguson said, "I could have bought Joe Hart for £100,000 so we all make mistakes."

Ferguson went on to praise Hart as England's best keeper for years.
"I've no doubt [that Hart will be England goalkeeper for the next 10 years].
"If you look at the England goalkeeper situation for the last 20 years, I would think he's easily the best."
