Description
In 1999, Manchester United completed a unique treble by winning the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League – even more remarkable was how they achieved it, and the stories behind this historic success. When the season began, Manchester United was up for sale, the legendary Eric Cantona was retiring, rival Arsenal was the reigning double champion, David Beckham was a hated figure in the nation after his expulsion during the World Cup, and even manager Alex Ferguson's position was being questioned. Driven by the indomitable will of captain Roy Keane and supported by homegrown talents Beckham, Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, and Paul Scholes, United embarked on a long unbeaten streak. Matt Dickinson was close to the United locker room throughout this time. He highlights key moments and speaks with those who were at the center of events, as well as those who remained in the background. 1999: It is much more than just a book for Manchester United fans; it is an insight into team building, the will to succeed, and a story of pride. It reveals the true stories behind the legend sealed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's last-minute goal in the Champions League final.
