Many may not remember but the current Utd demise is a rerun of the days after Matt Busby. Manager after manager and years of pain. It was not resolved until the youngsters came through en masse in the early 90,s and Fergie got a grip. Utd have not traditionally rebuilt in the transfer market and it looks as though they won, t this time either. Suggest they look to youth supplemented by solid and experienced players and get rid of the aging prima donnas who think the club should play to their tune.

Yeah it's a rerun of the days after Matt Busby ok with Fergie playing the Matt Busby role this time, and.

Not wqhite accurate, the first of the kids didn't hit the first team until '96, the 93/ 94 titles were transfers led. The FA Cup in '90 started the run, League Cup and Cup Winners Cup followed and then 2 titles. Only then did the first of the Class of'92 become a regular.

Yeah AJH too many people think the Ckass of 92 were the start of our rebirth, in fact they were the second team Fergie won a title with. The bug thing about the kids then was they cane into a squad where the old pros demanded they trained hard and met the required standard. The talk back then was that Robbo Keane Ince (although sold to Inter as the kids hit the first team) went in extremely hard in training and gave them an education.

Schmeichel, Parker, irwin, Bruce, Sharpe, pallister, Cantona, Ince, Mcclair, hughes, Giggs. Not too many local lads in the 92/ 93 team I’m afraid.

I loved that first team, we were improving and could beat anyone on our day but Eric's arrival sealed it. They could play great football, they enjoyed a scrap, a team of warriors.

GDS2, I was 9 years old then and they’re still some of my favourite memories supporting this club. Eric’s arrival was perfect timing. God I loved them days!

2toms,
I was 7 and remember it like it was yesterday. I guess when your team wins the league at that age it makes you support even more, winning is good. Feel like we are being punished now for our childhood!
