  Unleashing his attackers: It was a disastrous start to the game for Manchester United as the Red Devils saw two goals conceded in the first 10 minutes itself. While as much shocking it was to see United trail by 2 goals at Old Trafford, it was astonishing as to how Jose Mourinho had more than three attackers on the pitch by the end of the match. RomeluLukaku, Anthony Martial and Marcus Rashford started the match but due to Rashford’s inefficient performance in front of the goal, the young Englishman…

5) Craig Bellamy Craig Bellamy was part of the rudimentary stage of Manchester City’s evolution under their Qatari owners. He was amongst the many stars Citizens brought to the club alongside Adebayor, Samir Nasri and Sergio Aguero. While he was nowhere near as successful as the likes of Aguero and Nasri were for the club, Bellamy did have his moments. He played for a myriad number of clubs which also includes Liverpool, whom he joined in 2006. Post his Man City career, Bellamy again returned to Anfield and scored a…

George Best: Words don’t suffice the greatness of George Best and his abilities on the ball. He was an excellent dribbler on the ball as he could easily glide past players to score and create goals.

5) Kaka Probably one of the greatest players of all time it is a real pity that Kaka had to endure so many injury problems leaving the football world to ponder what would have been the case had it been an injury free time for the Brazilian at Real Madrid especially if you consider the things he did at AC Milan. It was exemplified by winning the Ballon d’Or despite having Ronaldo and Messi as his competitors notably he remains the last player other then them to win the title….

5) Andrei Arshavin The Russian is well known for his 4 goals he scored against Liverpool on a historic night at Anfield. While he continued to score goals on and off for the Gunners he just couldn’t manage to get on the same level which had convince Wenger to sign in in the first place.  Now 37, Arshavin plies his trade back in his homeland.
