#8: Paul Ince

MAN U V LEEDS
Paul Ince was a pivotal midfielder in Manchester United's formative years

A dynamic tough-tackling midfielder, Paul Ince was one of those players who proved to be the pillar in United's road to glory after dark times at Old Trafford. Albeit he left Old Trafford before United hit their peak, Ince is always summoned up as a legend, being the first black skipper to ply his trade for the Red Devils.

Alex Ferguson was quick to snap up the midfielder in a £1.35 million deal after spotting him at West Ham United in 1989. A hard tackler and a top-class ball winner, Ince was a vital player in the absence of United skipper Bryan Robson. He formed a stellar partnership with midfielder Neil Webb in the center of the park at Old Trafford.

But, the Englishman left for Inter Milan following an infamous feud with Sir Alex Ferguson. Though his departure allowed the youngsters to make their mark, Ince will always be remembered as a saviour in United's formative years.

Paul Ince netted 29 goals in 281 appearances in his six-year spell at the Theatre of Dreams. He amassed a total of 10 total trophies, before departing for Inter Milan in 1995.
