OP said unique nationalities I think mate- we've had plenty of Norwegians, a couple of Aussies, and never, ever forget Hao Haidong

 

[Revolution]

Aksalu always gets named in these sorts of things, but he never made a first team appearance.

We have also had more than one Swedish player.

 

[diode_blade]

Higdon....
No one knows where the ferk he came from....
Pluto, at a guess....

 

[Swannyblade]

Toni Kallio - Finland

Yeah it was late. Realised straight after. Still, a couple of unique ones in Katchouro and CKR I think?

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

Canadian David Edgar can have a place on the bench.

He can’t because of his fellow countryman Pesch.

 

[Chief14]

Besic could fit in and D’Jaffo (Benin).

 

[Balham Blade]

If you believe Wikipedia, these are the internationals appearances of United players, excluding the home nations:

[Swannyblade]

Does Chris Short count for Germany?

 

[sportinguista]

Sabella as manager.

 

[Harrisblade]

Hope

You can Hope as much as you like, but still wrong ☹

 

[DifferentClass]

Nick Blackman actually qualifies for Poland.

 

[Shoreham_Bhoys]

In terms of uniqueness.

Mikele Liegertwood played for Antigua & Barbuda if that’s unique, although he’s from North London.

Gus Uhlenbeek was from Suriname.

 

[Shoreham_Bhoys]

He can’t because of his fellow countryman Pesch.

Lavery as well, shocker from me.

 

[Swannyblade]

Simon Moore - Isle of Wight

Nah there's some missing. Without thinking too much - Sun Jihai & Hao Dong (China), Nalis & Dellas (Greece), Marlon King (Jamaica)

 

[Swannyblade]

David Sommeil - Guadeloupe

 

[Swannyblade]

Nah there's some missing. Without thinking too much - Sun Jihai & Hao Dong (China), Nalis & Dellas (Greece), Marlon King (Jamaica)

It looks to be a list of players who were capped while they were at Sheffield United.

Hayles, Davis, Dellas, Sun Jihai and Hao Haidong weren't called up to their national teams whilst they were with us.

Nalis was never capped and also was/is French.

 

[ekke287]

Let’s not forget Veart of Australia, and Jostein Flo of Norway. Unique striking line there.
