Description
Even the Defeats is the story of how Sir Alex Ferguson drew inspiration from the lows, to lead Manchester United to the highs. From a heavy defeat to cup glory, from struggles in Europe to the treble, from losing the league to Leeds United to winning a first title in 26 years, using failure to fuel success was arguably Ferguson's greatest strength.
