4. David Ginola vs Gerard Houllier
Ginola may be widely celebrated in England, for in 1993 he was public enemy number one in his native France, when a misplaced cross facilitated Bulgaria scraping to USA 94 in their place. Houllier was so angry at Ginola that he refused to let the matter drop for years, and helped put a premature end to the player’s international career. Ginola eventually took Houllier to court citing slander and defamation, but it was thrown out in 2012.
