The only constant element has been the quality of the manager’s league-winning squad and United’s run of success, which included winning the Champions League for the second time in 2008. Sir Alex created a purposeful but welcoming, and much envied culture at the club which has lasted the test of time.
Sir Alex saw Manchester United change from a conventional football club to what is now a major business enterprise, and he never failed to move with the times. It was directly due to his vision, energy and ability that he was able to build teams both on and off the pitch. He was a man-manager of phenomenal skill, and increasingly he had to deal with global stars.
His relationship with Cristiano Ronaldo, for instance, was excellent and David Beckham has described Sir Alex as a father figure. Over the past four years, Sir Alex has been reflecting on and jotting down the highlights of his extraordinary career and in his new book, he will reveal his amazing story as it unfolded, from his very early days in the tough shipyard areas of Govan.
