In this edition we will see some of the great players who
once proudly wore the Red, Black and White kits for the best football club in
the world but are now serving somewhere else.
10. Gerard Pique
At 17 Gerard Pique arrived at Old Trafford in 2004. He played most of his games for the reserve team before going to Real Zaragoza on loan in 2006/2007 season. Came back in 2007 and was featured in first team this time.
Pique made 30 appearances for Manchester United, scoring two goals which were both in UEFA Champions League and that's why his send off gift in 2008 included the UEFA champions league, league cup and community shield winners medals.
Pique is now a world class stopper playing for Barcelona. Left too soon?

9. Michael Owen
When he signed for Manchester United in 2009, Owen did not need any introduction. As many other great players, Owen scored on his debut and went on to score many important goals which made sense since he was wearing a very important Number 7. We all remember the winner he scored against Manchester City in 2009.
Three years later after 52 appearances and 17 goals Michael Owen left for Stoke City but as usual, we never send them away empty handed. Premier League, League Cup and FA Community shield winners medal he won with MUFC will definitely give him some good memories especially since he is retiring end of this season.

8. Louis Saha
On 8/8/1978 Louis Laurent Saha was born in Paris, France. His
football career with Manchester was officiated in 2004. Saha, scored on his
debut and went on to score twice on his second ever Manchester United match.
With seven goals in his first 10 starting appearances for Manchester United,
this number 9 was definitely worth the £12.4M fee.
With 124 appearances for Manchester United and 42 goals, the striker walked away in 2008 with two English Premier League titles, One League Cup winners medal and a prestigious Champions League gold medal.
Saha is now playing for Lazio.
