Past and present.

Go.
Before that why didn't the Wigan fans just walk the the Stewart's, the Stewart's only went up to the touchline, their was a big gap between the end of the Stewart's and the stand they could have walked through.

Antonio Valencia, David Silva, Arjen Robben, Shola Ameobi, Riccardo Montolivo, Del Piero

I'll think of more.
I'd rather live in Sunderland, in fact I'd rather be a mackem full stop

Pretty much any American playing overseas. Kagawa, Hazard, Tevez, Silva, Modric, Barca.

More or less any defensive midfielder of note and any paceless '10' of note. I'm also massive hypocritical c*** as I generally like players who play with a smile on their face but occasionally there'll be a player who is a massive c*** who I like.

I'm far more a fan of players who are technically good and use their bonce to aid them than pure athletes who just dominate people like say Vieira or Drogba or someone (although they obviously have a clever side too).

Aside from the blatantly obvious a few names off the top of my head would be Redondo, Gattuso, Suarez, Aimar, Ramsay, Di Matteo.

Really liked Edgar Davids.
sicko2ndbest likes to think he knows what "semblance" means, but he doesn't.

David Silva the most.

Although I despise him I love watching Craig Bellamy as well, gives 100% every game.

Iniesta's first touch is borderline pornography.

Matt Le Tissier was always my fav non-toon player back in the day. Some of the goals he scored were ridiculous. Robbie Fowler and Van Nistelrooy in their first few seasons were absolute machines in front of goal as well. Always entertaining to watch if they weren't scoring against us. Paolo Di Canio and Zola were likeable as well.
Fat b****** out!

Chicarito, think he is class.

Batistuta, was just an awesome sight when he was lashing goals in left, right and centre.

Batigol is a cracking shout.

Probably a bit of a 'different' shout to others, but when Coventry had Mustapha Hadji and Youssef Safri, those 2 seemed to really like playing together, and Hadji had a right shot on him.

Another couple of favourite strikers from the past - Hristo Stoichkov and Davor Suker. 2 amazing left foots.

Another of the left foot striker brigade among my favourites... Christian Vieri. Shame that Ronaldo seemed to get injuries galore when Vieri and Ronaldo were at Inter. Those 2 up front would have been unreal if they could have forged a great, consistent partnership.

That whole Fiorentina set up was ridiculous. Lush kit with a class sponsor, Batigol scoring goals like he had some disease, Rui Costa strutting about being class. Cois sitting in the middle, Toldo in goal. Lovely.

They had a 'decent' team that one year with Keane and Dublin upfront and Gary Mac pulling the strings in the middle.
