Although Sir Alex Ferguson changed the course of Manchester United’s history around during his 27-year-spell in charge at the club, not everything he did was a success.
The wily old Scot delivered bags and bags of trophies to the club during his tenure, but let’s not forget that he signed Eric Djemba-Djemba, one of the biggest flops in the Premier League era according to some.
The Cameroonian was drafted into Old Trafford to add some steel into the United midfield but after a number of woeful displays in the side he faded into the background and left for Aston Villa soon after.
Since then, he has played for Burnley, Qatar SC, Odense BK, Hapoel Tel Aviv and Partizan, and the 24-time Cameroon international has managed to land himself a new club at the grand old age of 32, though it’s not as glamorous as United, who he won the FA Cup with back in 2004.
No, you’ll have to head north to find his new club. He has signed for Scottish Premier League side St Mirren, who currently sit in ninth out of 12 in the SPL.
How the mighty have fallen, ay?
He was never going to set the world alight but to see a player’s career drop like a stone is never nice, and I for one hope he can put in some strong displays for the Buddies.
