Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt have revealed their picks for the most ruthless player axeing of the Sir Alex Ferguson era at Manchester United.
Ferguson led United to 13 titles in the first 21 seasons of the Premier League as he took the club back to the top of English football.
The legendary Scottish manager had to rebuild his team on multiple occasions during his 27-year-stay, and this meant moving players on to bring in fresh talent. He showed his ruthless streak in these moments, and Scholes and Butt have now named the one axeing that neither saw coming.
