Six: Solskjaer

Few players in the storied history of Manchester United Evoke emotion in the same way that's conjured by these three words, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer with six league titles, two FA cups and intercontinental cup, and of course, a champions League. Solskjaer enjoyed success on a level that few have. His contribution to that success is etched in history. His winning goal in the 1999 Champions League final earned him sporting immortality.
