He was a glorious sight as he either soared above the opposition to clear his own lines or launch an attacking header. He had deceptive speed for a big man and was very consistent. He initially came into the Leeds team as a long term replacement for Jack Charlton. He went on to form an execellent defensive partnership with Norman ''Bites Yer Leg'' Hunter in Leeds' triumphant English league 1973- 1974 campaign. After being on the losing side in the 1975 European Cup Final, McQueen became part of a declining Leeds side and eventually was snapped up by Manchester United McQueen was now a regular for Scotland; he was in the 1978 World Cup squad in Argentina but did not play due to injury, and played his last match for Scotland in 1981, attaining 30 caps and scoring 5 goals for his country. Manchester United In February 1978, McQueen moved from Leeds to rivals Manchester United for £495,000. On signing he famously stated that '99% of players want to play for Manchester United and the rest are liars'. McQueen helped Manchester United reach the FA Cup final in 1979, scoring a late goal as Manchester United came back from 2-0 down against Arsenal to level the scores, only for their opponents to wrestle the Cup back with a last-minute winner. McQueen finally gained an FA Cup winner's medal in 1983 after a replay against Brighton & Hove Albion. He also was in the team which lost the League Cup final to Liverpool in the same season. McQueen finally left United in 1985, after losing his first team place to Paul McGrath and not being included in the FA Cup final side that beat Everton 1-0.
