As the world's biggest and richest club, Manchester United reach a global fanbase.

Part of the attraction for fans around the world has been the football luminaries, such as George Best and Sir Bobby Charlton, who have graced the Old Trafford turf in a Manchester United shirt over the years.

Recently, Manchester United have continued to attract or develop some of the game's biggest names, with England stalwarts such as Paul Scholes and David Beckham having been regular fixtures in the Reds line-up.

The Manchester United team, past and present, reads like a who's who of world football.

It is only fitting that a great team should grace a great stadium. And with Old Trafford's recent development and the closure of Wembley, the ground is easily the largest in English football, holding in excess of 60,000 fans.

Despite this capacity, the demand to see United in action is so great that tickets are hard to come by.

But it isn't only Manchester United fans who flock to Old Trafford. The standard of the ground is such that it regularly hosts high-profile games, most notably, the Champions League Final and Great Britain rugby league games.

Rock fans have also made use of the Reds's facilities, watching a number of high-profile acts at the ground.

But it's football that will forever be synonymous with the Reds famous ground - and with good reason.

The last decade has seen Manchester United under the shrewd leadership of Sir Alex Ferguson maintain a virtual stranglehold on the Premiership crown.

Manchester United has won the league no fewer than 18 times in their history. They are also Cup Kings too, winning the FA cup 11 times, the league cup 4 times, as well as winning the European Super Cup, European Cup Winner's Cup, and 3 times being crowned European Cup champions.

Manchester United has long become a name associated with success both on and off the pitch.

As club profits continue to grow, Manchester United have become one of the richest sports clubs on the planet.

With supporters club branches on every continent, it's hard to go any where in the world and not see somebody wearing the famous red shirt of Manchester United.

QUOTE(zenix @ Nov 24 2009, 09:18 PM)
Hope Alien will sticky this info later.
Though written in 2006 so no Roy Keane yet.

Ex-United players that have moved on to become managers.

Written by Simon Stone (MARCH 22, 2006)

STEVE BRUCE (1987-1996): Took his first steps in management with Sheffield United in 1998, then swiftly moved on to Huddersfield, Wigan and Crystal Palace. Left Selhurst Park in acrimonious fashion after Birmingham targeted him as the replacement for Trevor Francis in 1991. Took Blues into the Premier League but after a heavy FA Cup defeat is struggling to keep his job.

MARTIN POWELL (1971-1983): Stylish and well-respected Scotland centre-half whose authoritative nature appeared to make him a natural for the management game. Lasted four months at Burnley.

SIR BOBBY CHARLTON (1956-1973): Arguably the finest English player of all time proved to be an unmitigated disaster as a manager. Claimed he was not given the resources to make a decent job of it at Preston but was never lured back into management following his departure after a single season.

STEVE COPPELL (1975-1983): After a knee injury cut his playing career short at just 28, Coppell turned his attention to management. Steered Crystal Palace into the FA Cup final and then third place in the old First Division - the Eagles' highest ever - the following season. It was the first of four stints in charge at Selhurst Park in a career which has seen him move to Manchester City (for only six games), Brentford and Brighton. Now at Reading and about to steer the Royals into the top flight for the first time.

PADDY CRERAND (1962-1971): A key figure in United's 1968 European Cup triumph, Crerand lasted five months at Northampton before getting the bullet and, like Charlton, never managed again.

MARK HUGHES (1983-86, 1988-95): Hughes was never tipped as a manager by Ferguson but has taken to the game with ease. Took Wales into the Euro 2004 play-offs. Took over at Blackburn shortly afterwards, steering Rovers away from danger in his first season. Currently in contention for a Champions League spot.

BRIAN KIDD (1967-1974): Another European Cup winner who proved to be a poor manager. Got itchy feet in 1998 after spending seven years as Sir Alex Ferguson's highly-rated assistant. Took command at Blackburn but dismissed six months later.

BRYAN ROBSON (1981-94): United's inspirational leader under Ron Atkinson and Ferguson. There are two schools of thought on his stint at Middlesbrough - he either spent lots and achieved little (relegation and two losing finals) or he laid the platform for the Teessiders to become an established Premiership outfit. Kept West Brom up in extraordinary fashion last year but back in trouble again this season.

GORDON STRACHAN (1984-89): Scotland international who won the FA Cup with United and the title of the pre-Premiership era with Leeds. Sacked after five years at when the Sky Blues lost top-flight status, then enjoyed success at Southampton - reaching the 2003 Cup final - before resigning to spend more time with his family. Now at Celtic, has recovered from a humiliating Champions League exit to Artmedia Bratislava, and, after winning his first trophy on Sunday in the CIS Insurance Cup, is set to clinch the Scottish Premier League.

NOBBY STILES (1960-71): Along with Charlton, one of only two Englishmen to have won the World Cup and European Cup, he replaced his former England and United team-mate at Preston, with limited success. After a brief stint in Vancouver, returned to England to take over as manager of West Brom. Sacked after five months, having gained just three wins.

Who is Manchester United target Matteo Darmian?

We profile Matteo Darmian - the Torino full-back Manchester United have agreed a £12.7m fee with.

What’s the latest on his future?

Sky Italia sources have reported that Manchester United have agreed a fee with Torino for the Italian international right-back.

Talks between the clubs have been ongoing and, after rejecting United's first two bids, Torino have agreed to sell their prized defender at the reported price.

Torino finished ninth in Serie A last season and Urban Cairo, the Torino president, has admitted Darmian will be tough to keep hold of after another impressive season. Champions League football is reportedly a big attraction for the player with Cairo setting a deadline of July 12 (when the squad return to training) for a potential deal for Darmain to be done.

“Everyone who comes to the pre-season training camp will remain with us for the rest of the season,” he told La Stampa.

“Sunday (July 12)  will be the deadline. Three offers have arrived for Darmian, but out of respect for the clubs who have made them, I won’t reveal who they are. Darmian is an extraordinary player who will want to try and win the Champions League one day.”

Sky Italia understand United are one of those clubs that have made the offer.

Manager Louis van Gaal has made a right-back one of his priorities this season and after failing to secure a deal for Barcelona man Dani Alves, the Italian now is United’s number one priority in that particular position, particularly now that Rafael has been attracting interest.

What’s his background?

After progressing through the youth system at AC Milan, the talented full-back failed to break into the first team and was snapped up by Palermo in a co-ownership deal with Milan after a fruitful loan spell at Serie B club Padova.

However, injuries restricted his progress at Palermo - he finished the 2010/2011 season having made just 16 appearances - before being loaned out to Torino at the start of next season, where his career really started to take off.

He made the right-back spot his own that season, which triggered Torino to stump up £500,000 to acquire his services from Palmero and Milan.

In the 2013/14 season he played 37 games in Serie A for Torino and made the league’s team of the season before playing a huge part in the club’s historic run to the last 16 of the Europa League last season, where they were knocked out narrowly by Zenit.

Darmian may ring a bell with English football fans from the 2014 World Cup, where he played in all Italy’s game as they bowed out in the group stages. He was one of the few shining lights in that tournament for the Italians, playing a key role in the 2-1 victory over England in the opening match.

He took advantage of England's part-time left-winger Danny Welbeck’s lack of defensive know-how to put pressure on full-back Leighton Baines and it was from the right flank where the crucial winning goal – scored by Mario Balotelli – came from. He has won 13 caps for Italy.

What are his strengths?

His progression from the days when AC Milan deemed him not good enough has been quite remarkable.

Although not possessed with great natural ability, his positional awareness at full-back along with his high energy to get up and down the line at pace make him a tough nut to crack for opposition wingers. He can also play as a centre-back when required.

It’s this explosive pace that has alerted some of the big clubs from around Europe with full-backs now performing more like wing-backs as some managers like to heap more emphasis on those full-backs to provide the width in their system to find an opening.

Van Gaal is a big believer in this tactic and Darmain would certainly add another dimension to the United attack – something which was missing last season through makeshift full-back Antonio Valencia, whose questionable defensive attributes were targeted by opposition attackers last season. 

Darmain on the right and a fully-fit Luke Shaw on the left would be an exciting proposition for United fans.

Sir Alex Ferguson: I don't miss the transfer market

Sir Alex Ferguson has reiterated his enjoyment at watching Manchester United from the stands since he retired - and admits he's also happy to be a spectator in the summer transfer market.

The former manager regularly attends matches at Old Trafford and is delighted to maintain his connection with the club that way. But when asked by MUTV if he was glad to no longer be involved in the sometimes complex process of signing players, he replied: “Absolutely! I don’t have to worry about that any more.

"But you never lose your interest in Manchester United, there’s always going to be that attraction. I keep an eye on things and see how things are going. I think that it’s one of those clubs where no matter how long you work there, you can never lose that affection for it. I’ve still got that great affection and love watching United."

Sir Alex was speaking to MUTV at the Manchester United Foundation's annual golf day, in which he joined numerous past and present Reds stars in helping to raise over £20,000 for charity. He added: "The Foundation has done great work over the years, and continues to do so. It's very important. It was great to see a lot of my former players at the golf day."

Wayne Rooney and Michael Carrick were among the current squad members joining Louis van Gaal and assistant manager Ryan Giggs on a short break from pre-season training, while the legends on the fairway included Denis Irwin and Bryan Robson.

When asked before the event what we could expect from him as a golfer, Sir Alex said: “Complete agony! If I get five points for my team I’ll be happy.”

United to hold press conference on Friday

Manchester United will hold a press conference this afternoon (Friday) to unveil new signing Memphis Depay.

Louis van Gaal and his fellow Dutchman, who was recruited from PSV Eindhoven last month, will address the media for the first time since the squad returned to pre-season training.

Of course, you can follow the press conference via the usual official club channels including ManUtd.com, MUTV and Twitter (@ManUtd).

The next scheduled press conference will then take place when the Reds are on Tour 2015, presented by Aon; the squad will fly to the United States on Monday to compete in the International Champions Cup.

MATTEO DARMIAN'S FIRST INTERVIEW AS A MANCHESTER UNITED PLAYER

Moments after signing for the Reds, Italian defender Matteo Darmian gave his first exclusive interview as a Manchester United player to the club's official channel MUTV. Here's a transcript of what he had to say, and you can watch a clip on our dedicated Darmian page...

Welcome... you're now officially a Manchester United player. How do you feel?
I'm so excited. And I am very happy to be here at one of the most important clubs in the world.

When you found out that United wanted to sign you, what did you think?
I think for me it is a great opportunity. I want to be there. So I didn't think! (twice)

But was it difficult in a way to leave Torino because you've had a great three or four years there?
Yes, because the last four years have been amazing. But for me, Manchester United is a great opportunity and I have taken that opportunity to come here.

It's your first day here at the Aon Training Complex. Have your new teammates and the manager welcomed you?
Yes, the first impression is good and I want to start.

The manager says you can play right-back or left-back. Do you feel your best position is on the right?
My best position is on the right because my preferred foot is my right one. But I can also play with the left.

As for your style, are you an attacking right-back?
Yes, it's possible I want to score some goals. But my first idea is to defend.

You've had a successful time in Serie A. Are you confident and excited about playing in the Premier League?
Yes, I have watched the Premier League because it is an important championship in the world. I like the Premier League. It's different from Serie A but I want to prove myself.

What do you think the biggest difference will be?
I think the Premier League is a physical championship.

Will you need time to settle into a new club, a new country and a new language?
I want to learn English very fast. It's different here but I will try to make myself at home.

You will go on tour to the United States on Monday. Will that be a chance for you to get to know your teammates?
It's a great opportunity for me to know the other people who play for Manchester United and to know myself.

Is playing at Old Trafford in a few weeks' time a dream for you?
For me, it's a dream. It's one of the best stadiums in the world. A lot of people dream to play there. It's my dream and it's coming true.

Is it an exciting time to join United with Memphis Depay also joining the club and an agreement in place to sign Bastian Schweinsteiger?
Yes, it's a great opportunity. The team is a competitive team and we all want to play together and do well together.

Finally, what do you want to do as a Manchester United player - to win trophies?
Yes, it's a club with a great history and a lot of victories. I think the team will carry on in that direction of winning trophies.

^ Still need to sign one striker at least.

Falkao and RVP out, leaving only Rooney, Wilson and Chica (out for god knows how long).

Be it Kane or Lacazette or Muller, janji one striker before the window shuts.

Agreed. Rooney will have one of those spell with injury *touchwood* / goal drought hence we need someone ready to step in to share his workload. Wilson will need time so can't expect him to hit the ground running instantly.

Manchester United sign Germany midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger

Manchester United is delighted to announce that Bastian Schweinsteiger has completed his transfer from Bayern Munich. Bastian joins on a three-year contract.

Schweinsteiger, 30, has made 500 appearances and scored 70 times for Bayern Munich since his debut in November 2002. During his time at Bayern Munich he has won over 20 major honours including an incredible eight Bundesliga medals. The German international midfielder has 111 caps for his country and is their current captain. He was an integral part of Germany’s World Cup-winning team in 2014.

Bastian Schweinsteiger said: "I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Bayern Munich, it has been an incredible journey and I didn’t take the decision to leave lightly. Manchester United is the only club that I would have left Munich for. I feel ready for this new and exciting challenge in what I regard as the most competitive league in the world and I am looking forward to working with Louis van Gaal again.

"I will never forget my time at Bayern Munich and I would like to thank everyone at the club and the fans for the great memories."

Louis van Gaal said: "Bastian is, of course, no stranger to me. I worked with him during my time at Bayern Munich and I am truly delighted he is joining Manchester United. His record speaks for itself; he has won every honour at club level and was a major part of the successful Germany World Cup-winning team last summer.

"Bastian is the ultimate professional and there is no doubting his talent and his ability to control games. He brings a wealth of experience and is an excellent addition to our squad."
