Gary Neville graduated from the United junior ranks and broke into the senior team in 1992. Subsequently, he spent 18 seasons at the club before retiring in 2012, having won every possible title with them. Neville won 8 Premier Leagues and 2 UEFA Champions’ Leagues with United. He also played a massive 602 matches for United.
Neville was a capable defender and a perennial threat through the right wing with his overlaps. He consistently delivered some nice crosses to the penalty box and occasionally cut in from the wings as well. His brother Phil was also a professional footballer and played for United too. He formed the famous “class of 92” quartet with fellow United Academy graduates Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and David Beckham. Neville was selected in Premier League’s team of the century in 2007.

Growing up, he idolized Boris Becker, but he now firmly believes Novak Djokovic stands alone as the 'Greatest of all Time', especially considering the 24-time Grand Slam champion's incredible stats. One thing that still puzzles Subhadeep, however, is how Becker's Wimbledon tally might have reached five if not for Pete Sampras.
