The Greatest Rivalry charts the thrilling Arsenal vs Manchester United battles of the late 1990s and early 2000s, when two great sides and two all-time great managers – Ferguson and Wenger – vied for supremacy. Across nine extraordinary seasons, they tussled for every major honour, producing unforgettable matches and a rivalry for the ages. The book relives the iconic on-pitch clashes – Wright vs Schmeichel, Van Nistelrooy vs Keown, Vieira vs Keane – and examines famous games such as the Battle of the Buffet and the Battle of Old Trafford. It revisits the greatest FA Cup semi?final and one of the greatest goals, and it’s packed with quotes and memories from those involved. This book is for anyone who experienced the buzz of Arsenal vs Manchester United at its height. It was a fixture that lit up the Premier League like no other before or since – each game and drama was must-see theatre.
