Bryan Robson

The longest-serving skipper in Manchester United's history, Bryan Robson was the embodiment of an all-action, dynamic midfielder who played 90 times for England during an illustrious career that saw him earn the affectionate nickname 'Captain Marvel'.

Born in Chester-Le-Street in 1957, he began his professional career with West Bromich Albion in 1974 and spent seven seasons with the Baggies before United lured to him Old Trafford for a British record transfer fee of £1.5 million in October 1981.
