I would honest to God love to read the reasoning behind people who don't have Fergie listed, but list players like Scholes, Giggs or Keane, seriously

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Tbf, that'll be the starting point before the sculptors are brought in.

Has to be Sir Alex and Sir Bobby. After that it's open to debate. Cantona and Best for me. Two talisman key to our success during two very different eras.
Four greatest goalscorer:
Jack Rowley
Wayne Rooney
Bobby Charlton
Denis Law

Saf and Busby are the club. So they must be included. United is built around youths and our best youth manager ever was Harrison. The last slot must go to a player. Who better to represent that then sir bobby?
Sir Alex

Players only: id go for players with the best package (talent, attitude and importance). Sir bobby, cantona, keane and giggs
Can we get David May balancing on the top?
This.
Busby, Murphy, Fergie, Charlton
Manchester United may not exist without Jimmy Murphy.
Exactly!

Four Matics
SAF, Giggs, Ronaldo and Scholes
Ferguson, Charlton, Best, Scholes
Sir Alex, Cantona, Keane and Fellaini. But only because I'd be interested to see if the sculptor could get his hair right.
*puke* He should be nowhere near a United legends discussion thread.
Busby, Ferguson, Charlton, Giggs
Hard question, but seeing as Mt Rushmore depicts the supposedly greatest men of America in their history, you have to go with the best United figures historically too. So on that basis I'd say Sir Alex, Matt Busby, Bobby Charlton and probably Giggsy.
If it's based on my favourite all time figures and it was going up in my back garden to look at every day, it'd have to be Sir Alex, Cantona, Ronaldo and Scholes for me.

Sir Matt, Sir Alex, Djemba, Djemba.
Djemba-Djemba, Macheda, Di Maria (but instead of his elongated face, put a snake mug in mid-hiss) and of course Bebe.

My 4 choices would be, the 3 sirs and one left blank as a sign to others who wish to achieve greatness as in something to be achieved.
And in time i would hope it would be the 4 sirs who ever that fourth would be.

Of the guys I've had the pleasure of watching week in and out it would be Keane, Scholes, Giggs and Ronaldo. If it's historical importance, I probably take out Keane and Ronaldo, and replace them with Best and Sir Bobby, and if you are including managers its probably Best, Sir Bobby, Sir Matt and Sir Alex, but the idea of taking my favorite player of all time out (Scholes) is tough.
Sir Jose sounds like the name you'd give to your pet armadillo.
Oh if he was before the QUEEN it would be the full double barreled treatment, as all these latin people seem to have.
Arise, Sir José Mário dos Santos Mourinho Féli
Matt Busby, Bobby Charlton, Alex Ferguson and Cantona.
Cantona didn't win as much as others, but he's my favourite United player ever. He was the final piece of the jigsaw that started our rise to success and he had a huge influence on the class of 97.

Busby, Fergie, Cantona for definate. The last spot is difficult, I would probably go with Best.
