Manchester United 1996-98 Third Shirt

Season Overview

Under the management of Alex Ferguson, Manchester United secured their fourth Premier League title in five seasons during the 1996-97 campaign, finishing seven points clear at the top. They also reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League. The following 1997-98 season was a near-miss, as they finished a single point behind Arsenal in the league and were knocked out in the Champions League quarter-finals.

Key Players

This era featured a legendary squad, with Eric Cantona playing his final season in 1996-97 before his unexpected retirement. The team was built on the goalkeeping of Peter Schmeichel, a defence marshalled by Gary Neville and Denis Irwin, and a formidable midfield including Roy Keane, David Beckham, Paul Scholes, and Ryan Giggs. The attack was led by Andy Cole and Ole Gunnar Solskjær, with Teddy Sheringham joining for the 1997-98 season.
