He had 33 caps for the Republic of Ireland, playing for the national team in 1962-1975. He was Irish Footballer of the Year in 1969. Dunne played for the famous Nursery Stella Maris Football Club as a schoolboy Shelbourne from 1958-1960. Having helped Shels win the FAI Youth Cup in 1959, he won the FAI Cup with them the following year, beating Cork Hibernians 2-0 in the final. A week after the final, he was signed by Manchester United for £5000. His debut for United came on 15 October 1960 against Burnley. He helped the club win the 1963 FA Cup, the 1965 and 1967 English Football League First Division championships, and the 1968 European Cup. In his United career, he scored two goals and appeared in 530 games, and is currently the Manchester United player with the fifth greatest number of club appearances, behind Sir Bobby Charlton, Bill Foulkes, Ryan Giggs and Alex Stepney. He remaining at Old Trafford until the start of the 1973-74 season. He then signed for Bolton Wanderers, helping them win the Football League Second Division in 1977-78. At the time, Bolton were being managed by former Manchester United player Ian Greaves. He joined Detroit Express in the NASL in 1979. He made his full international debut in the 3-2 home defeat by Austria on 8 April 1962. Over 13 years he took his tally to 33 caps, appearing in both full-back positions and at centre-half. Played alongside his brother Pat Dunne in one game a defeat by Spain on 10 November 1965. He captained his country on four occasions. Tony Dunne was Manchester United's best fullback since the Munich disaster. Some say he was an even better fullback than Gary Neville Evra, Irwin and Parker. Putting him only behind Byrne in United's history. At the zenith of Dunne's career it is fair to say only Wilson was better in England's top division. Dunne was blessed with speed, bravery and excellent recovery skills. Later on he developed his consistent game minus fancy tricks, where he would cover in defence win the ball and lay off a simple pass to Crerand or Charlton. Some critics say blessed with such speed he should have ventured forward more often and although he did overlap at times he was in a team blessed with attacking talent so he concentrated on defence. Dunne won everything with United two league titles, an FA cup and the European Cup. He played 534 games and scored two goals. Tony DUNNE | 1964-1968 | PES Stats Database (Golden Era Backup)
