Towering at six feet seven inches, Crouch is prized for his self-deprecating humour, having famously answered the question “what would you be if you weren’t a footballer?” with the one liner “a virgin”. At the same time, he has had an incredible career, from World Cups to Champions League finals. He has scored more headed goals than anyone else in Premiership history and has a better goals-to-minute on the pitch ratio for England than even Michael Owen. A humble professional with a great sense of humour, Crouch is one of the few players that is liked by fans of all clubs.

Peter Schmeichel is an undisputed giant of the global game - and One: My Autobiography is his story. As a serial winner and larger-than-life character with Manchester United and Denmark, he rivalled Gordon Banks and Lev Yashin as the world's greatest goalkeeper. Sir Alex Ferguson, having paid just £505,000 to sign him in 1991, hailed him as 'the bargain of the century'. Schmeichel would become a key figure in United's successes during the ensuing decade, starting with a first domestic league title in more than a quarter of a century.

Publisher's Summary
Meet the man who helmed Manchester United for 27 years. A tour de force in the world of football, Alex Ferguson wrote this book for his fans, addressing personal feuds, triumphs and highlights of his life on the pitch. A must-listen for football fanatics around the world.
Revised and updated with new material from the paperback edition.
Includes a prelude read by Sir Alex Ferguson.
Sir Alex Ferguson's compelling story is always honest and revealing he reflects on his managerial career that embraced unprecedented European success for Aberdeen and 26 triumphant seasons with Manchester United.
Sir Alex Ferguson's best-selling autobiography has now been updated to offer reflections on events at Manchester United since his retirement as well as his teachings at the Harvard Business School, a night at the Oscars and a boat tour round the Hebrides, where he passed unrecognised.
The extra material adds fresh insights and detail on his final years as United's manager.
Both the psychology of management and the detail of football strategy at the top level can be complex matters but no-one has explained them in a more interesting and accessible way for the general reader than Sir Alex does here.
My Autobiography is revealing, endlessly entertaining and above all inspirational.
The reader James Macpherson most notably appeared in 'Taggart' as DCI Mike Jardine, and has also read the audiobook editions of Ian Rankin's Rebus series and Billy Connolly's Route 66.

A Manager Of The Times
I always hated Fergy when he was an active manager. As you do when someone is at the top of their game. It’s why I don’t mind going back over it all in retrospect. You want to learn how the best tick and this was a great insight into the workings of a football manager he never took a step backwards in coming forward.

Awesome insight into players and transfers etc.
The best parts of this book are the specific stories of transfers that did or didn't happen, as well as hearing about the different characters of certain United players and an insight into Sir Alex's thoughts about them and their relationships. The book seems to jump from player to player in no specific order, which keeps things fresh, as you don't know where it is headed or what the next topic will be. All of the expected are mentioned i.e. Beckham, Cantona, Keane, Ronaldo etc. but it's fascinating to hear the stories of some of the forgotten or less talked about players like Anderson, Barthez, Saha, Bebe, to name a few. Though it also shares stories of Sir Alex's personal life, before and after football management. As well as his thoughts on the David Moyes appointment and how it went wrong. All in all it is a must read/listen for every United fan and beyond.

Like Manchester United: You'll love it or dislike
Great material. Sped through it.
Felt a bit choppy at the end. Almost like they'd got an earlier version of the book and just crowbar red in a few new paragraphs. Some well written chapters. Some just feel like SAF with a dicta phone recording any thought that comes into his mind.
The narrator was good. Great voice, hearty Scottish accent though did make it seem like they'd brought in an actor to play SAF, which gave a weird aura of a day time TV movie biopic.
Overall though a recommendatiom for anyone that likes football and can stomach Manchester United.
