5. David Beckham 1993 – 2003
Sadly, Beckham is now predominantly seen as a celebrity rather than the technically excellent footballer that he was for United for ten years.
Part of the ‘Class of ’92’ that graduated the club’s academy, his success was often belittled by his off the field antics with his popstar wife. But lest we forget, he has given us a plethora of iconic events and romantic images thanks to his heroics for both club and country.
