For over a decade Mark Hughes has been a colossus at Manchester United,and the Old Trafford terraces ring out with chants of 'Hughsie' in admiration for his tough,no-nonsense approach.Alex Ferguson calls him a warrior and there is no doubt that Hughes brings a commitment to his football which has made him one of the most feared and respected strikers in the game.In fact,many would argue that the Welsh international's form has never been better (then 1994),and he certainly seems to have taken on a new lease of life playing alongside the marvellously maverick Eric Cantona.
No player can speak with more authority about United's dramatic breakthrough,which last season saw them complete a superb Championship and FA Cup double.His book captures the drama of United's surge to success as well as the story of his own roller-coaster ride in football,
having come to Old Trafford as a boy and returned as a man after playing for top European clubs,Barcelona and Bayern Munich.
Hughes talks freely about playing for Ron Atkinson and Alex Ferguson and assesses the stars who have worn the famous red shirt alongside him.He also tackles the taunts that he is difficult to play with and answers the critics who portray Manchester United as bully boys who lack bottle when the going gets tough.
