MUFC has often been home to the jewels in the British footballing crown, including Ince, Bruce, Robson, Stiles, Sharpe, Beckham, Butt, Scholes, Giggs and, more recently, Wayne Rooney, Ashley Young and Rio Ferdinand. Foreign players have also shone at Old Trafford with such names as Cristiano Ronaldo, Juan Sebastian Veron, Roy Keane, Ruud van Nistelrooy, Peter Schmeichel and of course Eric Cantona.
