Dubbed the Henry Kissinger of the football world for his diplomatic skills, the man who hired Sir Alex Ferguson recalls his years at Manchester United. Maurice Watkins was involved in every major deal done by the Reds since 1976 until he stepped down from the board, and was eye-witness to many of the triumphs the club enjoyed under Ferguson, and the rise of household names such as David Beckham and Ryan Giggs. From Ronaldo to Beckham to Schmeichel and Cantona, the Red Devil lawyer worked tirelessly with the greatest players and the greatest manager of the 90s and noughties, and was the linchpin that kept the great club together.>
