Where are they now? Man Utd’s XI that got a guard of honour at Chelsea – PF

After winning the Premier League title in 2006-07, Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson decided to rub salt into Chelsea’s wounds.

Ferguson, who was often an evil genius as much as he was a managerial one, went to Stamford Bridge and opted to field an XI almost entirely made up of obscure, fringe reserve players.

That meant the Chelsea players had to give a guard of honour to some players who had never even made a Premier League appearance, and who have since faded into obscurity.

The match played out to a boring 0-0, but where are the 11 players Ferguson started, along with the two players he subbed on, now? We trawled through the depths of the record books to find out.
