David May Videos

David May was bought by United back in 1994, just a year before Blackburn won the title. He was a centre-back and Fergie played him every now and again as a useful squad player. In 96 he played more often, over 40 games.

In ‘99, with United going for the treble they needed to call on all squad members. Stam was rested for the European final so May played in the FA Cup final.

He is most fondly remembered by United fans for his celebrations at the Nou Camp immediately after winning the Champions League. For some reason, he seems to appear in nearly every single team photo taken!

Jaap Stam Videos

Jaap Stam was an amazing centre back who Fergie bought from PSV back in 1998. He was pivotal in the success of the team when they won the treble in ‘99. He was the best centre back in the world and many United fans still say that he was our best ever centre back.

Then he published his autobiography and told how Fergie tapped him up to get him. Immediately he was sold to Lazio and Fergie did not even give him a reason.

He continued his playing career in Italy and then returned to The Netherlands. Apparently he is now a South American scout for United!

Darren Fletcher Videos

Darren Fletcher has had a controversial time among hardcore Man United fans. Many of them see him as “Fergie’s son” due to his heritage and Ferguson’s knack of playing Fletcher regularly, even in the big games, despite some being of the opinion that he is simply not good enough. This was particularly noted early in his career.

Lately however, despite not having apparent outstanding talent, his efforts and talents are appreciated much more. He is a regular for Scotland and has captained the team on several occasions.

Edwin van der Sar Videos

Edwin van der Sar was signed from Fulham where he had been a solid goalie for a few good years. But was he too old? Not by the looks of it.

United have struggled since Schmeichel retired in 1999 and have gone through a load of goalies in the years after. But van der Sar made an immediate impact and for the most part has been a solid goalie who singlehandedly has saved United from losing in some games too, as all good goalies can.

Some people do not know that he actually has a Champions League winners medal already from 1995 and he was also in the ‘96 final but lost the penalty shootout. No doubt you know that his save of Anelka’s shot in 2008 helped Manchester United to win the Champions League.

Patrice Evra Videos

Patrice Evra was signed from Monaco in 2006 as cover for left back, given that Gabriel Heinze was suffering badly with injuries. However, he went on to claim the position as his own and offers more pace and ball skills going forward than Heinze did (although Heinze was a solid defender no doubt).

He has honed his skills well over the last couple of years I think. He used to lose the ball more often but now he skillfully gets past defenders, puts in good crosses, links up well with whoever is playing on the left wing and tracks back to cover.
