yo guys..

dunno if this had been discussed before, if it had and the mods think they should have this deleted, pls feel free to do so...

but in the mean time.. lets discuss abt the Greatest Man Utd Player in your opinion that deserved to be labelled as the Greatest Man Utd Player, but the only rule is that you had to see him play be it live or on media..

IMO, players worthy of being label as the Greatest would be Eric Cantona, Peter Schmeichel, Bryan Robson, Roy Keane, Giggs, Stam, Ruud.. whats your take.. dun feel awkward even if you player of choice is someone that no one agrees, we are supposed to discuss not argue and remember there is no right or wrong in your choice...

Cheers

dragg SG

definitely schmeicel.

if not for him man u wouldnt have won the CL.

he was like a spider at goal.

Patrik SG

Peter Schmichel.
Enough said.

Its hard to say... cos for those who lived during the 60s & 70s, they would probably say Bobby Charlton and George Best... Those in the 80s may think Bryan Robson was the greatest... Then the 90s we have Eric Cantona... the 2000 to todays fans may think Roy Keane was the best... In another 10 yrs down the road, maybe we will say its Rooney or Ronaldo...

So who is the greatest?

For me, personally I still think Cantona was the greatest of them all. Wink

CKeer SG

Cantona is god-like dude!
But i still prefer Dwight Yorke!
His sportsmanship, sharp-shooting and excellent postioning made me a United fan. Wink

Cheers.

King Eric! But Schmeichel was awesome at goal. tough pick. Bryan Robson stamped his authority and who could forget the solid partnership of pallister and bruce. Wink

Cantona, unparallel greatness…...

charlemagne SG

Eric Cantona for the 1990s

Giggs as for now...

SpeedCam1852 SG

Wow... so whos the greatest? i haf alot....

Peter Schmeichel - Best GK n also the bravest...uses every inch of his body to block the ball....

Eric Cantona - a wonder....but his temper...

Sir Bobby Charlton - No one can ever replace his skills in midfield....

George Best - his name says it all...

Richard Edwards - Wonderkid but life was short 4 him....

zocoss SG

Eric The King!

along with Beck, Butt and the Neville bros...

For me it will be paul scholes and ryan giggs..

Maurince SG

hmm, i started supporting at 97.. so im more familiar with the younger generation.. for me now, it has to be scholes.. great vision with tenacity.. leading the young lads on numerous encounters..

stam for me is the best D fergie gotten.. solid and unrelentless.. his a one man striker demolition man.. Shocked Shocked

not forgetting, schmichel.. the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.. Laughing ..still remember his penalty save in the '99 FA semi will gunners.. he was fearless in the penalty box.. wat a save and a setup for giggs..

no wonder its a wonder in the 'theater of dreams' Cool Cool

thats the whole idea dude.. we shall discuss abt the players that we think is the best but at the same time allow fellow Man Utd fans whom are of an earlier and later generation then us to also have a say on who do they think is the greatest in their opinion.. its better to have someone telling us who they think is the best base on what they have seen... there is no right or wrong when ppl label someone as the greatest its always an opinion and not a fact that can be proven.. or shall we have other threads like who's the best defender, midfielder, winger, striker..etc??

fudgester SG

For me, there's no contest.

Thanks for the memories, Peter. Very Happy

suckthumb.com SG

since you like the idea ..you start the thread lor.. Embarassed
seriously, you start the thread and i'll chip in my 2 cents worth.. hopefully can make Man Utd's folder stronger..

iceFatboy SG

we are talking about GREATEST!!!.
for me, would be Bobby Charlton..
there are many like George Best, Denis Law.

why I chose him, he does it for his country and club.
and when the fateful air crash, he was able to redevelop and make MUFC great again..

marcteng SG

the best 11 of all time:

Man U lineup: peter schmeical, dennis irwin, stam, ferdinand, heinz, giggs, keane, bobby charlton, cantona, george best, dennis law
