Who is Denis Irwin? – According to the official Manchester United website, Denis was born in 1965, in Cork, Ireland. He joined United from Oldham Athletic, after impressing in an epic FA Cup semi-final against the Reds. As a reliable left back with an eye for goal, he excelled for both club and country, playing 529 times for United, and earning 56 caps for Ireland.

In 12 years at Old Trafford, Mr Dependable became the second most decorated player in the club’s history; cramming his trophy cabinet with seven Premier League winner medals, three FA Cup medals, one Champions League winners medal amongst other silverware from his acclaimed career.
