#1 David Beckham & Fabio Capello
As Real Madrid boss, Fabio Capello sensationally vowed that David Beckham would never play for the club again in January 2007, after the midfielder agreed on a deal to join LA Galaxy the following summer.
Back then, Capello explained he was unhappy with the former Manchester United midfielder, claiming that his conduct in not informing him first on his decision 'did not feel right'. It looked to be the end of Becks' career, but in typical Beckham fashion, he bounced back to win back his place.
His continued efforts in training and professional attitude forced Capello to change tack as he recalled Beckham within a month - and the dead-ball specialist transformed Madrid, sending them on a late-season surge to dramatically win LaLiga on the final day of the season.
