The Collar Up. GOD55

The King as he is referred to. He came from Leeds United in 1992 and led the team to four league titles before his retirement in 1997 as stated on the Transfer Market website. If there was ever a player that a team relied on for success, it was Eric Cantona.

With his collar turned up and his chest pushed out, he was the ultimate leader and a fine scorer. But it was not the type of goals that were key, but more the importance of his strikes. He scored winner after winner as United began to dominate English football. His presence was most keenly felt when he was suspended for eight months in 1995 for attacking a fan; United failed to win the league that year as a result.

But he returned and arguably one of his best/important goals came in the 1996 FA Cup final against Liverpool.

Following the retirement of Cantona, Beckham assumed the number 7 mantelpiece in 1997 and was key in their success at the end and turn of the century. Who can forget the two corners taken that led to United winning the Champions League and the treble as a result? Although not blessed with great pace, Beckham was the greatest crosser and dead ball specialist that I think has ever graced the game. He wore the shirt with pride, scored important goals and was a key cog in the United team.

Possibly the greatest player of all time, Ronaldo lit up Old Trafford in his time at the club and from 2006-2009 led the team to three consecutive trophies and the Champions League in 2008. Such was the impact that he made is that the team have never really replaced him since he left. His most impressive year was in 2008 as he scored thirty one league goals which not only fired United to the Premier/Champions League but was also named footballer of the year.

So who is best? Although they have all contributed immensely to the success that the team had, I have to go with Cantona.

His aura, sheer drive and determination dragged United continually to success. Such is the impact that he had is shown by the fact that the fans still continue to sing his name.
