The French defender, who arrived at Old Trafford in 2001, shortly after Jaap Stam's departure, was midway into his 30s when he signed but still managed to make a big impression. Brown has labelled Blanc as "the most relaxed man in the world" with the centre-half going on to make over 70 appearances for the Red Devils.
