Former Manchester United chief exec David Gill has named his top three signings while in charge.

Gill spent 16 years at United between 1997 and 2013.

He told Vibe with Five: "The top three signings, I would say, would be Wayne (Rooney) in terms of what he did for the club.

"I would say Michael Carrick for what he brought in terms of all that. And the third I would say, well I can have two. There's a lot. Vidic and Evra."

He also said of goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar, "But I think in terms of the importance to the club, one of the most important ones was Edwin.

"We struggled to replace Peter (Schmeichel) and then we went out and got Edwin and he was great for us."
