Description

Bobby Charlton's story is one of triumph and tragedy, of highs and lows, and of a lifelong devotion to the club he loves. From his early days as a member of the Busby Babes to his 17-year career with Manchester United, Charlton played in 754 games, winning everything the game had to offer. He shares the story of those United years, including the emotional FA Cup victory in 1963, the club's three first division championships, and the devastating defeats that followed, such as the 1957 European Cup semi-final and the 1969 European Cup defeat by Milan. Charlton's experiences are marked by both incredible success and personal tragedy. He played alongside some of the greatest players of all time, including Best and Law, and was involved in one of the greatest football tragedies of all time, the Munich Air disaster. Yet, despite the challenges he faced, Charlton remains one of the true gentlemen of football, and his legacy at Manchester United is beyond compare. In this book, Charlton tells his story for the first time, giving readers a unique insight into the life and career of a football legend.
