I forgot Billy Connolly played for us
I wasn’t around back then but are there really only 9 survivors from that era? Fergie outlived most of the squad?
Wasn't the 90s only 10 years ago?
Players missing:
giggs - lying low for obvious reasons
Ince - could have joined them today
Schmeichel - no idea where is he
Bruce - is he managing some team currently?
Kanchelskis - being russian
Cantona - ???

McClair has evolved into Gandalf.
Who’s missing from the chair?
I think people could pay extra for a photo with the players so I expect the empty seat was for that.
Schmeichel was also in Manchester today, doing his own ‘evening with…’ show.
Erm... no.
I wish it is though
I don't, couldn't face having to work another 30 years
Some obviously couldn't make it - could be 1-2 others
Peter Schmeichel
Andrei Kanchelskis
Eric Cantona
Steve Bruce
Paul Ince
Russell Beardsmore
Ben Thornley
Darren Ferguson
Danny Wallace
Dion Dublin
Simon Davies
Lee Martin
This is how I feel too
I'm pretty sure it would have taken more that 10 years for Choccy to turn in to Gamdalf
i can recognize some in that picture. Can someone just name them here? Would be much appreciated!
Robbo, Sunbed, Mickey P, Pally, Sharpey, Choccy, Sparky, Dennis I and Paul P
No wonder Pogba's body is falling apart these days if he's been playing that long.
Irwin, Robson, Pallister, and Bruce don't look any different, just grey. McClair, though 
And where is Cantona?
And where is Cantona?
Were Thornley and Davies really involved in the 92/93 title winning team? I think Giggs was the only one from his batch that featured heavily in it. Which is impressive when you think about it. Guy is a scumbag but he was something else on the pitch.
Say, how old is the forum?
And what was the first post?

Giggs and Sharpe kept alternating, if I'm correct. Kanchelskis on the right wing. It is astonishing how quickly he developed, and how he was still a top performer by the time United won its 19th title in 2011.
Sharpe had his issues with ill discipline, which he admits to in his book and in the plethora of interviews he's given since retirement.
we must have been better than I remember if we only played with nine guys
Used to always bump into him in a pub in town. Lovely man
I didn’t recognize Blackmore at first
McClair looks like my brother
McClair looks like my brother
Love them
Lee Sharpe still looks cool as feck
They may not have managed to make Smell-o-vision a reality but there’s a serious bang of tramp’s piss off that picture.
Sparky taking the dirty City dirham still disappoints me. He’s as Red as they come and was a colossal player for us in that era where we were trying to re-establish ourselves as the preeminent club in English football. His achievements here are historical yet all I can see every time I see his face is his treachery bringing that mob to Old Trafford when trying to usurp us.
Maybe if they were relegation fodder when he managed them and not a threat, I mightn’t mind so much but that 2009-12 United-City rivalry was really becoming a serious one and Hughes was, regrettably, their face of it.

What ever became of Lee Sharpe? - Never even hear his name mentioned. Thought he may have been a pundit but nothing
FFS Fred
They were all hero's when I was 9 years old. There all old men now. 
Owns a pub in Spain and is also a very good after dinner speaker.
They were in the squad but I don't think they were involved much
Do you feel the same way about Dennis Law or Brian Kidd or Peter Schemicael?
Is McClair in witness protection or something?! Took me a good 20 seconds to recognise him
Where’s the missing players?!
As all new software entities should be
Is that true
why would you test 1-2-3, that's a terrible tactic?
Brilliant.Shame some of the others couldn't make it.
