United beat Crystal Palace 1-0 thanks to a 59th minute Lee Martin goal. Giving âAlecâ his first silverware south of the border.
1/38


The âTennentsâ Charity Shield was shared

2/38


Perhaps the greatest achievement in the history of association football, remains the 91 ECWC campaign. Facing Johan Cruyffâs mighty Barcelona in the final United swept them away thanks to 2 stunning Mark Hughes goals.
3/38


Facing off against the â91 European Champions Red Star Belgrade, Old Trafford saw United run out 1-0 winners thanks to Brian McClair.


Building up a winning tradition and mentality, United followed up successive trophies by capturing the League Cup against Nottingham Forest, thanks to another McClair winner.
5/38


The signing of Eric Cantona to replace the injured Dion Dublin proved to be a master stroke - the Frenchman providing the catalyst to take United over the line for our first title in 26 years.
6/38


United faced Arsenal in the 71st Charity Shield. Notably Roy Keane made his United debut. The only other notable thing was George Graham wasnât aware the shield would be decided on pens in the event of a draw. United won on pens
7/38


Proving last seasons title win was no fluke, we followed up by retaining the league in spectacular fashion. The â94 side is a favourite of many reds, because of its raw pace, power and ability to play football or mix it against tough sides
8/38


Cantona started the 2nd half battering of Chelsea by scoring two penalties in the space of 6 minutes, followed by goals from Mark Hughes and Brian McClair, a fitting 4-0 victory! Sir Alex's first domestic double with United.
9/38


After winning the double, we faced Blackburn in the Charity Shield and we didn't give them a chance to win this either... Cantona & Ince scored and David May made his club debut after joining from Blackburn just weeks before.
10/38


Keeganâs meltdown.
Ericâs return.
You wonât win anything with kids.
Anything but ordinary Premier League season, but 3 titles in 4 years, means a familiar name on the trophy.
11/38


The Double Double. Cantona inspired a young United to domestic champions and now inspired a 1-0 win over fierce rivals Liverpool, scoring the only goal as United complete a 2nd league and cup double!
12/38


Following Euro â96, Fergie got giddy, signed Jordi Cruyff and Karel Poborsky. They debuted in this game, and it pretty much peaked there for them both.
13/38


Cantona bowed out as a champion for the 4th time in the 4 seasons he completed with United. But the makeup of the team was changing, as the class of 92 lads began to take centre stage.
14/38


Another trip to Wembley for Fergie and another trophy coming home.
United needed penalties to get the job done, after drawing 1-1 in 90 mins.
15/38


A new era. One of the most complete sides that ever took to a football field.
Schmeichel, GNev, Irwin, Stam, Johnsen, Keane, Scholes, Beckham, Giggs, Yorke & Cole - Solskjaer, Sheringham, Berg, Blomqvist, PNev, Butt + Brown.
Legends
16/38


The FA Cup Final was the pre-party to the big one in Barcelona, but itâs still the FA Cup and it still needed winning. It was easy in the end. Up the reds!
17/38


Did we deserve to win the game? No.
Do we care? No.
Losing Keane & Scholes was a huge blow. But we scraped through thanks to injury time winners from Solskjaer & Sheringham.
The unprecedented Treble. Best team in all the world.
18/38


United would face Palmeiras in the 1999 Intercontinental Cup. Roy Keaneâs single goal proving the difference.
19/38


First 3-in-a-row of Sir Alexâs reign. 7th title. But cracks were showing - and Fergie would try and adapt the side to better perform in Europe following the ease of winning domestically, but the struggle in Europe.
21/38


Mixed feelings on this season, Ruudâs only title win. Beckhamâs last. Didnât retain it, and you get the impression it was a Frankenstein team stuck between two eras.
22/38


Arsenal played the role of foe for the 81st Charity Shield, held at the Millennium Stadium, Cardiff.
23/38


An unlikely opponent in Millwall, lined up against a United team in transition. Ruud van Nistelrooy bagged a brace and the MOTM award, but it was also a game where Ronaldo seemed to come of age.
24/38


Wigan became the first victims of the Rooney and Ronaldo era of United. The pair, combined with Saha stuck 4 past Wigan Athletic to take home the 25th trophy of Sir Alexâs reign.
25/38


3 long seasons without winning a league - can you imagine! Felt like a lifetime in the wilderness. But Fergie has assembled another great side. How good can they be?
26/38


Jose Mourinhoâs Chelsea faced off for the 85th Charity/Community Shield. Van Der Sar saved all 3 of Chelseaâs pens as Rio, Carrick and Rooney scored for United.
27/38


Ronaldo scored 31 league goals. United narrowly saw off Chelsea for the title, but weâd meet them soon in Moscow. Above all, there was a confidence in this United, it knew it was good. You felt weâd beat anyone, from any era.
28/38


Once of the most entertaining of all time. End-to-end. It had everything. Then it went to penalties. Ronaldo - flawless all season - misses. John Terry changed the penalty order, so heâd be the one to win it. Slipped. Missed. Cried. Unlucky
29/38


Portsmouth + Harry Redknapp todayâs opposition. Qualified as 2008 FA Cup winners and took us to penalties to win this.
30/38


Been Foster was named MOTM after a shootout performance that United overcome Spurs. After watching iPod footage of the Tottenham penalty takers moments before pulling off a save.
32/38


Fergieâs 11th, Unitedâs 18th and the second time heâd done a three-peat. If retaining it is hard, how hard can 3 in a row be?
Ronaldoâs last in a United shirt. Think we can all agree he peaked here, done nowt since.
33/38


Rooney and Owen combined to see off Aston Villa in front of 88,596 at Wembley. Remember when winning was so commonplace we didnât even celebrate League Cups?
34/38


Another trip to Wembley, this time to collect Fergieâs 35th pot as gaffer. Unreal.
35/38


A season we didnât really celebrate winning the league because of the disappointment of the Champions League final defeat. But it was the 19th title.
36/38


A rarity in the Community Shield - but a hell of a football game. Newly riché city finally qualified for one of these games after being the mighty Stoke.
Phil Jonesâ debut.
37/38


Robin van Persie was signed to bring goals. He brought 26 of them. He helped United deliver a 13th Premier League and a 20th English title for the reds.
38/38
It would cap the end of the greatest feat of managerial prowess that we would ever witness.
Sir Alex, the greatest. âšâšThank you.
