Sir Alex Ferguson picks a surprising Man United player as the ONLY 'certainty' who would make it into his greatest all-time XI at the club

Sir Alex Ferguson produced a surprising answer when he named the only player that would be guaranteed to feature in his all-time greatest team during his time at Man United.

In nearly three decades at the helm, the Scotsman presided over multiple distinctly successful eras at the club, winning the Premier League 13 times and lifting the Champions League twice.

During that time some of the most legendary names in the history of English football plied their trade at Old Trafford, including the likes of Eric Cantona, Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes.
