4) Remi Garde
Manchester United had a strong hold on the Premier League until Arsen Wenger’s Arsenal came along in the mid-1990s The Frenchman revolutionized the style of play at the club and broke the Red Devils’ monopoly in the process.
Wenger recruited three French central midfielders, Patrick Viera, Emanuel Petit and Remi Garde. Viera and Petit’s indomitable partnership helped Arsenal to the title in 1997/98. That left Remi Garde with limited opportunity and rightly so with his quality not matching the standards set by his French teammates.
Garde did earn a Premier League winners medal only because he played enough games to do so. He eventually hung up his boots in 1999 after three largely forgettable years at the club.
