Yesterday, we kicked off our United-themed advent calendar by bringing you the best goalkeepers United have ever had – that of course, being because they wore the number one on their back.
It’s the second of December today – so there’s only one man we could give you… Gary Neville – easily the best player to pull on the number two shirt for United since shirt numbers became compulsory for Premier League teams in 1993.
Neville spent 19 years in the first team, making 602 appearances; he is the fifth-highest appearance maker in United history, and won’t be moved from the top five any time soon – the only player in the top twenty who isn’t retired is current captain, Wayne Rooney.
Anyway, here’s some images of Gary as we look back at his incredible United career…
