Still got it: Sir Alex Ferguson celebrates Manchester United's winning goal against City earlier this season[LNB]Patrice Evra has predicted Sir Alex Ferguson will remain 'until his last breath' as manager of Manchester United.[LNB] Fergie, 68, came close to retirement in 2002 but the France defender doesn't believe it's in his nature to walk away from the job. [LNB]He said: 'He doesn't see himself taking it easy at home reading a book or watching TV. Personally I think that would bore him. [LNB] 'I don't think he will call an end to his career. As long as he's strong he will carry on. He will stay until his last breath.'[LNB]And Ferguson's passion for the game is certainly not diminishing, his reaction after the 3-1 win over rivals Manchester City showed what the Carling Cup semi-final victory meant to him. [LNB]Evra explained, 'Sir Alex is a child. We saw it against City. He's so passionate, he was jumping up and down like a child after that game. You could be forgiven for thinking he'd never won a game before.' [LNB]The League Cup is not the main prize for United this season, the club are on course for a unprecedented fourth league title in a row after their demolition of Arsenal at the weekend but the defender isn't taking anything for granted. [LNB] Team man: Patrice Evra (right) insists United are a better unit this season [LNB]'For us it's normal when you play a good game and it's normal to win the championship. It's Manchester United but we don't have the right to make mistakes.' [LNB]Speaking to French TV station Canal+, Evra added: 'We miss Cristiano and Tevez but the real star at United is the team. With Cristiano we relied on him in certain games. [LNB]'Today we need to do a bit more each of us to to create danger for our opponents.'  [LNB] Revealed: Rooney's bumper teenage deal - United star earned £500k in image rights as a 16-year-old at EvertonOwen's Italian job - Ferguson wants Hargreaves back to face BeckhamSurge for Sergio!
