Which Former United Players Do You Miss?

**funkdoctorspock** · 08-09-2007, 10:31 PM

Came across this article on the United site and I had to pose the question.

Which former United Player do you miss since they were transferred out of the club or given an outright release?

Boss sad to see Smudge leave

Sir Alex Ferguson admits it was a huge wrench to allow popular striker Alan Smith to join Newcastle United.

The 26-year-old England international sealed a move to St James' Park last week after a rollercoaster three years at Old Trafford.

A well-liked figure with fans and colleagues alike, Sir Alex admits Smith will be missed as he starts his career anew with the Magpies.

"Alan has been a fantastic character in the dressing room and also a very important player for us," Sir Alex is quoted as saying in the Daily Express.

"There are few characters as big as him in this country at the moment and it was a very difficult one for us to decide."

Smith's firebrand approach quickly endeared him to United fans, despite his ties with previous club Leeds, and Sir Alex is confident that he will receive a warm welcome whenever he returns to Old Trafford.

"I was very sad to see him go," said the Gaffer. "He'll be remembered with great affection by everyone here and I'm sure that's the case with the fans."

mark hughes, one of the greatest volliers in history.

i'd expect Japp Stamm to be a popular choice, and of course Ruud Van Nistlerooy

Let me guess yours: #23

would love to see Beckham wake up and leave the MLS come home to United!

Currently:
Beckham
van Nistelrooy

Former:
Robson
Hughes
Keane
Ince (I know, the whole Liverpool thing, but we've had our own issues with that, too)
Kanchelskis
Schmeichel (hurt to see him in the blue side on Sunday)
Cantona

Out of the current squad members, the ones I'll miss the most when their time comes:
Giggsy
Scholesy
Rooney
Ronaldo
O'Shea (I dunno--there's just something about the way he plays and his general attitude)
