Sir Alex Ferguson: The Official Manchester United Celebration of 25 Years at Old Trafford (MUFC)

Synopsis

The official Manchester United celebration of Sir Alex Ferguson's 25 years as the club's record-breaking manager

Not only celebrating what Sir Alex Ferguson has achieved at United, this fascinating book also seeks to explain just how he has gone about creating this remarkable dynasty, constantly rebuilding the team and driving them forward to yet more glory. When Ferguson joined Manchester United in November 1986, he came with a great track record from his time in charge of Aberdeen. But reestablishing the Reds as the most successful club in the land was an enormous task. Famously, he knew he had to knock Liverpool of their perch. At the dawn of the Premier League era, in 1992-93, United had gone 26 years without being champions, but that season Ferguson finally led the club to title success and in 2010-11 he finally achieved the record-breaking 19th title. On top of that, Sir Alex has led Manchester United to two Champions League victories and many other trophies. In an era when most managers are lucky if they last two years, Sir Alex's achievement of lasting 25 years at the very top is truly astonishing. This book is the club's fitting tribute to his career.
