Andrei Kanchelskis
Andrei Kanchelskis is fondly remembered for his time at Manchester United.
The winger was a key player from 1991 to 1996, scoring 36 goals and frequently switching wings with Ryan Giggs, leaving opposition defences confused.
His speed and dynamism made him one of the league’s most exciting players.
In fact, when United sold him to Everton in 1996 for £5m, many fans were angry with Sir Alex Ferguson for allowing the sale to happen.
Kanchelskis went on to legendary status at Goodison Park as well as Ibrox when he joined Rangers.
And one of the other clubs he joined in his career were Southampton.
Not many will remember Andrei Kanchelskis for his time at Southampton.
There’s good reason why.
Kanchelskis made just one appearance during his year-long stint in the 2002/03 season.
Needless to say, it wasn’t a success.
Unlike his time at United, where Kanchelskis was part of an era of great success winning two Premier League titles, an FA Cup, and the European Super Cup, the least said about his time at The Saints, the better.
And if it wasn’t for a certain David Beckham, history may have looked back on the decision from Sir Alex Ferguson to sell the Russian much differently.
