I ready posted this link in the PL thread, but the Guardian posted an excerpt of a very good (and very long) Blizzard article about the contrasting fortunes of Liverpool and Manchester United in the mid-90s.

I like the slightly different take it had on the Spice Boys era.

Are all Blizzard articles this good?

That was a super cool article. Are there any books covering that period? Are the biographies of the players worth it?

If you want the Liverpool perspective, I've heard good things about The Men in White Suits by Simon Hughes.
