Arsenal 4-1: Division One, 19/08/1989; Old Trafford Martin Edwards was again attempting to sell the club. This time to Michael Knighton who was relying on outside investment that never materialised. Ferguson brought in more new signings; Phelan, Webb & Wallace. Ince & Pallister followed shortly. United battered the new champions with Webb scoring a stunner on his debut. United had spent heavily and it looked to have worked.
