 Eddie Colman
Colman is the sort of player who is simply a joy to watch.
A great favourite of the supporters at Old Trafford, he delights the crowd on a regular basis with his impudent array of skills - in particular, a body swerve that leaves defenders for dead, and the ability to see and deliver a pass that can instantly tear the opposition apart.
Sometimes Colman is criticised for relying too much on his natural talent, and not providing the work rate, but whilst Duncan Edwards is playing alongside him, Colman's flair and exuberence are luxury items that United can well afford.
