Riassunto

Voted for by Manchester United's fans from around the world, a collection of the greatest games the team has ever played

Was the greatest Man U game the famous comeback in added time to win the Champions League final in 1999? Or could it have been the Busby Babes' swansong—a 5 to 4 thriller at Highbury? And who can forget the 8 to 2 thrashing of Arsenal in 2011? These are just a few of the greatest games ever played by Manchester United. In this remarkable and fascinating book, United fans have voted by the thousands to say which matches they believe were truly special. Featuring contributions from many of the stars who played in them, as well as individual supporter memories, this book takes the reader to the heart of why Manchester United is a club like no other: throughout its history are so many matches that no one who saw them can ever forget. Deciding which game was the best of the bunch will be the fans' choice.

Dalla seconda/terza di copertina

There have been countless unforgettable matches during Manchester United's rich, trophy-laden history. Now, you can relive a half-century of the very best. Assembled by a distinguished panel of club experts, with the Top 10 ordered by manutd.com users, this is a thrilling countdown of the greatest games in which United have partaken.
From Old Trafford to Luzhniki Stadium and Maine Road to Camp Nou, United have been all over the world and served up some infamous occasions. Inevitably, the Reds' dominance of the Premier League era and trio of Champions League triumphs all feature heavily, but the exploits of the Busby Babes and the sides that followed them are also responsible for some of the memorable moments.
There are devastatingly one-sided victories embossed in the record books, heart-swelling underdog triumphs against star-studded opposition, and glorious nights and afternoons rewarded by the glint of silverware. Be they wonderful team displays, games enlivened by incredible moments of individual brilliance, or just thrilling affairs decided by last-gasp drama, each one of the Top 50 has fully justified its place in the pantheon of great matches.
Read on, digest and debate, for only one thing is certain: when it comes to providing unforgettable matches, United have always been the masters.
