00:00At the time there was a lot of optimism. Music was changing, politics was changing, football was changing.
00:13There was this surge, this tidal wave of culture.
00:18Everything just literally erupted.
00:20It was a great generation.
00:22We had a young band Oasis just ruling the world.
00:25It just seemed like the magic dust literally had been sprayed all over the city.
00:29There's some great northern cities that actually aren't beholden to anyone.
00:32Now the football teams of course, especially United, is a symbol of that.
00:38It was just six young lads who were enjoying life.
00:42In our eyes we were just playing a game of football with our mates.
00:46I was loving it.
00:48We were lucky enough to play well together and at the same time we were playing for the biggest club in the world.
00:54There was not one piece of jealousy between any of us.
00:58We all had each other's back.
01:00You go to work every day together with your mates, you've got no cares in the world.
01:03Just fun.

01:22Those are special moments, hitting goosebumps.
01:25You were massively aware of what you were representing in the history.
01:33I looked at the players that I'd grown up with on the pitch at that time.
01:38This was more special than anything that I've been involved in through my whole life.
01:44We were going for the biggest club in the world with the bags that you wanted to wear and winning.
01:48What was your score?
01:53I'm trying to think.
01:54Do you remember you used to play at all?
01:56I just completely forgot.
01:57I just completely forgot.
