Question for United fans, how many players from the 99 treble side are legends for you? Does half sound about right
I’d say 7/8.
I think it probably helps that they played the majority or all of their careers at United though, which is possibly the issue people may have with Gundogan here.
That’s a good argument. I’m looking at the squad and 7 sounds about right. How do you feel about players like Beckham or Ronaldo who spent more years abroad than at the club?
I included becks in the 99 squad. I’d say it was probably more 50-50 United vs abroad for him, but it helps that he’s a United fan and still talks quite passionately about United.
I probably don’t think of Ronaldo as a United legend. He was an amazing player who went on to be one of the worlds best, but the best moments of his career were definitely not in a United shirt.
