Greening gained England under-21 recognition despite his failure to gain a regular first team place at Old Trafford. As an attacking midfielder, he faced massive competition from more established players in both positions and his first-team opportunities were restricted, although he did make the substitute's bench in the 1999 UEFA Champions League final. He later admitted that he "felt a bit of a fraud" for picking up his winner's medal, having not played a single minute of European football that season.

Anyone know the only player who's scored a hat-trick of free kicks?
