#7 Bastian Schweinsteiger
One of the most decorated German footballers ever, Bastian Schweinsteiger was key component and leader of Germany’s World Cup winning team, as well as Jupp Heynckes’s ruthless treble-winning Bayern side.
The former German international has endured a fall from grace since joining Manchester United to reunite with Louis Van Gaal last season.
New Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has ordered Schweinsteiger to train with the U21 team and has effectively ended his chances of ever appearing for the first team again.
While Schweinsteiger has stated his desire to seek pastures outside Europe, one would hope a move could materialize to save him from the indignity of spending an entire season with the U21s.
