#3 Bill Foulkes
Bill Foulkes is probably one of the most adored Manchester United footballers of all time. The rock solid centre-back was the true embodiment of United's spirit and a crucial member of the Matt Busby Era.
He survived the 1958 air disaster, a tragic moment in football's history. Foulkes was named as the captain of Manchester United after this horrendous incident and the rest, as they say, is history.
A vital member of the squad, Foulkes witnessed United's rise back to the top and stood by the team during the tough times. He played a key role in United's 1968 European triumph.
Talking about the 1968 edition of the tournament, probably the most interesting matchup of the season was when Manchester United took on Real Madrid in the semifinal. Foulkes was the deciding factor as the skipper scored the winner against the Los Blancos and took United to their first European Cup final, which they won against Benfica.
Foulkes played in 18 seasons for United and won numerous trophies, which included 4 first-division titles, 4 charity shields, 1 FA Cup and 1 European Cup.
At over 680 appearances, Foulkes is one of the most capped players in the history of Manchester United too.
