and there is no one more passionate about club or country than brian

robson

, a man with as much desire as any player of the modern era, when

robson

plays football he should expect to get hurt because that is who he is when he sees a ball regardless where he is on a football field he automatically goes for it now afterwards sometimes he says I don't really know why I went for that and they would ask him that when he's lying in the treatment room but that's Robson and that's the end of the story with him brian robson has been positioning himself in manchester united's midfield to great effect since ron atkinson bought him from west bromwich albion in 1981 he has been a tremendous competitor widely recognized for his bravery and determination the only drawback, as cluffy says that simply about the most injury prone player in the country, there is no shortage of praise from boss alec ferguson and i can't think of anyone in the last 15 years at this club who has been a better player than brian robson um , people are evaluating them, so what is it? his great strength, I mean, I think he's wonderful courage, I think his ability to score goals is a midfield play in the modern game that makes him outstanding in itself, but I think looking at him he has a quality that you can't really train on players and that's the moment when two guys caught a ball with the red shirt, another's shirt, Brian knows what is going to land when a ball hits the back post, he knows he has to be there if it goes to the post forward where we.

He's attacking, he knows he has to be there and he just has the talent to time things and be in the right place at the right time and apart from the courage and his influence on our team, it's been a great experience to be in a place . Unlike many of his contemporary midfielders, Robson's positive qualities have always been at the forefront for both club and country, he has been an inspiring figure, although a league championship victory has frustratingly always eluded him, He has never needed to resort to some of the more cunning tactics employed by others, his latent skill has helped him get ahead, that does not mean that he is no match for any player in the heat of battle, just that he does not look for trouble and in In the hustle and bustle of big moments there are plenty of situations that could end unpleasantly with Robson, he commands a bit of respect and often ends with a handshake or a smile, even as he nears the end of his playing career.

Robson is one of the most committed players during his 12 years with England, he played 90 international matches and scored 26 goals, many of which are of crucial importance to the cause, a curious fact, although for such a charismatic character he has never been chosen as a player of the pfa year nor has he won the equivalent of the football writers' award, no doubt the catalog of injuries he suffered at the hands of opponents and as a result of sheer bad luck has been responsible for missing out on many important occasions, according to Cluffy , their fearless nature has been both a blessing and a hindrance now, if Robson had a known fear he wouldn't get hurt so much, but he doesn't know, it's something you can't put in them and something you never want to take out of them.

Brian Robson, the eighth of our tough men who served Manchester United and England with such distinction for so long thanks to Alex Ferguson. admission, Old Trafford's best player in the last 15 years and one who will fully deserve his place in United's hall of fame alongside the laws, the best and the Charltons. His only regret is not being able to deliver United's first league championship since then. that era and therefore leaves his final list of achievements sadly missing, I think.
