It was somehow appropriate that Sir Alex Ferguson's first signing for Manchester United should be Viv Anderson and his last Wilfried Zaha, meaning that he had gone from A-Z during his remarkable 26 years as manager of the club. Now, in this definitive and comprehensive volume, Iain McCartney takes the reader through every single one of the 850-plus players who have ever donned the United shirt, from the club's first official fixture in 1886 right through to 2013. For each player, there is a brief career summary detailing their full name, dates of birth and death, nationality, debut appearance, playing role, appearances and goals, seasons played, and other clubs in their career. Beyond that, there are brief biographies of all the key players over the years. These player profiles are a mine of fascinating information and trivia. So, if you want to know the name of the only player to have seen action at all three of United's home grounds, or to find out which former United FA Cup-winning hero became a trainer for Manchester City and then inspired his side to a semi-final triumph over the Reds by showing his charges his medal, this book will provide the answers. The Official Manchester United Players' A-Z is a treasure chest of information for all Reds, and a book that is sure to provide the answers for many questions about the world's favourite team.
