Manchester United are probably the biggest football club on Earth with a over one hundred million supporters worldwide. Man UTD have had so many brilliant players that if I named them all I'd be here all day, however George Best, Denis Law, Bobby Charlton, Steve Coppell, Joe Jordon, Ray Wilkins, Bryan Robson, Norman Whiteside, Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, Andy Cole, Ryan Giggs, David Beckham, Paul Scholes and Cristiano Ronaldo are a few of them. Two great managers have also reached legendary status at Old Trafford, Sir Matt Busby and the current boss, Sir Alex Ferguson who has won the triple and two doubles as well as countless other silverware. Every season Man UTD are in contention for the big competition prizes in football and the team consistently re-invents itself under the stewardship of Sir Alex.
