Schmeichel in goal, Keane, Ince, Kanchelskis, Hughes, Irwin etc. Also Bruce & Pallister were as solid an English centre half partnership as i think this leagues ever seen and of course they had the likes of Giggs, the Nevilles, Scholes, Butt and Beckham coming through the ranks. No wonder they were unbeatable.
