David
May has spent his first 3 seasons trying to prove to the Manchester public
that he is worthy of wearing the red shirt of United. Playing as right
back, he made many mistakes, and with injuries disrupting his progression,
he languished in the United reserves, unable to break up the formidable
partnership of Bruce and Pallister.
But, in the 1995-96 season Bruce and Pallister both suffered from injuries
and May got his chance, and grabbed it with both hands. He performed brilliantly
in the centre of defence and even scored the important opening goal in
the last fixture of the Premiership season at Middlesbrough to secure United
'The Double'. David is now a regular fixture on the United teamsheet
and played a big part in United's 1996-97 Championship season.
