9. David Healy
While he wasn't afforded much of a chance during his academy days at Manchester United, and featured in just 19 league games for Rangers, there's no doubting the Northern Irishman enjoyed a successful playing career. He is his country's all-time leading scorer with 36 goals, scoring his most memorable goal in a famous 1-0 win against England during the 2005 World Cup qualifiers. He's also been a really successful manager in his homeland. Healy has won the NIFL Premiership title five times, and has been named the Northern Ireland Manager of the Year four times during his time as Linfield manager, where he has been in charge since 2015. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
10. Phil Bardsley
While his time at both Manchester United and Rangers was very much unremarkable, Bardsley was one of the English Premier League's most consistent full-backs for a period of time in the 2010s, during stints at Sunderland, Stoke City and Burnley. Capped 13 times by Scotland, the ex-Rangers loanee retired in 2023 after a short stint with Stockport County. | SNS Group 0141 221 3602
