Manchester United Home 1996/1997
United clinched the Premier League title with 75 points. Placing them seven points ahead of the three teams below them; Newcastle United, Arsenal and Liverpool.

They also reached the European Cup semi-finals. Bowing out to eventual winners Borussia Dortmund of Germany, after losing both legs 1–0. Earlier in the competition, they had lost at home in Europe for the first time, with a 1–0 defeat to Fenerbahçe of Turkey in the group stage.

Their defence of the FA Cup ended in the Fourth Round replay with a 1–0 defeat to Wimbledon. While their bid for success in the League Cup was short-lived as they bowed out to eventual winners Leicester City in the Fourth Round.

New signing Ole Gunnar Solskjær was one of the biggest breakthrough stars in the 1996–97 Premier League season. He scored 19 goals in all competitions. Making him the club’s top goalscorer. Twenty-two-year-old midfielder David Beckham clinched the PFA Young Player of the Year award.

Solskjær’s fellow Norwegian, Ronny Johnsen, proved himself as a fine successor to Steve Bruce in central defence. But £3.5 million Czech winger Karel Poborský failed to win a regular first team place. He was one of the Premier League’s biggest disappointments that season. Jordi Cruyff, son of Dutch legend Johan Cruyff, was similarly disappointing. Failing to win a regular first team place despite being able to play in midfield, attack or on the left wing.

The season ended with a major shock as Eric Cantona announced his retirement from playing, prompting manager Alex Ferguson to search for a new striker. The search ended with the £3.5 million capture of Tottenham Hotspur and England 31-year-old Teddy Sheringham.
