Advantages: Goals galore
Disadvantages: Not for anti-Uniteds!
Any season involving Manchester United is bound to be laced with entertainment and controversy, and 1999/2000 is no different; all of which is encompassed within the 'Champions Again' season review.
In the usual clean cut format, 'Champions Again' details each and every game involving United, featuring all of the goals and highlights from what turned out to be yet another Premiership-winning season. Produced with typical ruthless efficiency in terms of the documentation of a victorious season, with intermittent player and manager interviews, this video will wow you once more with the brilliance and ease at which United romped to a second successive league title following the unrivalled treble success of the 1998/1999 season.
With new recruits Massimo Taibi, Mikael Silvestre and Quinton Fortune, United raced to victory in the league, despite faltering in the World Club Cup which meant the team were unable to defend the FA Cup, sparking mass controversy throughout English football. An average Champions League campaign, ending in defeat against the mighty Real Madrid, however, is sweetend by away victories at Arsenal and Liverpool domestically. More farcical moments, of less success, feature United's 5-0 drubbing away to Chelsea, as well as a catastrophic error by Taibi in goal, at home to Southampton in a famous 3-3 draw.
All in all, entertainment is rife and goals are in abundance, coupled with the usual brilliance of Beckham, Giggs and Scholes et al. If you're a United fan and see this kicking about in the shops or online on the cheap, I urge you to pick it up and relive what turned out to be another successful season at Old Trafford; keep an eye out for Paul Scholes' volley away to Bradford City!
Summary: Well-presented and detailed season review
