GK: Kasper Schmeichel
First up, he names his own son! In fairness, given Schmeichel’s comfortable position as number one at Old Trafford he probably never played alongside many other top keepers…
DR: Gary Neville
A fair choice at right-back, Gary Neville was a superbly consistent performer throughout the years for United in the dominant Ferguson era.

DC: Jaap Stam
Described as the best centre-back the world has ever seen by Schmeichel, Jaap Stam is an obvious selection in this dream team.
DC: Steve Bruce
Another hugely commanding defender who was rock solid for United and an under-rated star of the Premier League, Bruce also makes the cut.
MC: Roy Keane
Without a doubt one of the finest midfield players to ever play the game, particularly in the Premier League, Roy Keane is an unsurprising choice in this team.
MC: Paul Scholes
Alongside Keane, another undisputed United legend, Paul Scholes completes a fine midfield duo that worked so well for the Red Devils.
MR: David Beckham
One of the finest crossers of the ball ever seen, David Beckham was a star of some of United’s most successful and dominant teams.
ML: Ryan Giggs
A legend of the game, Ryan Giggs is another uncontroversial choice by Schmeichel in his dream XI and would make any fans’ side too.
FC: Dwight Yorke
A great striker for United and part of a famous partnership recreated here by Schmeichel.
FC: Andrew Cole
Another deadly goalscorer for United and formed a superb duo upfront with Dwight Yorke in the treble-winning season.
