Allan Simonsen was European Player of the Year and is the only footballer to have scored in the European Cup, UEFA Cup, and Cup Winners' Cup finals. No contest.
Simonsen all the way. 202 goals in 500 games. Only footballer to have scored in the European Cup, UEFA Cup, and Cup Winners' Cup finals and European Footballer of the Year.
Even when he played for us he was half an hour ahead of those around him so goodness knows what he would have been like in his prime with the likes of Parker, Jensen and Di Canio.
Richard Rufus if he hadn't had his knee problems. His defensive ability coupled with ridiculous pace for a centre half would have had him playing regularly for England. Ledley King was in a similar situation but I think Rufus would have been even more of a bastard to play against if he'd kept fit
I'm not saying he would have been our best ever but Garth Crooks was a notorious goal scorer at Spurs and then came and did a great job for us late 80's.

Scored a lot of important goals for us.
Does anyone remember seeing him clump Mart Stuart in frustration in a game at Selhurst or am I imagining it?
Not sure whether he would be up there with someone like Simonsen (who i never saw play), but Alex Song went on to great things with Arsenal and Barcelona.

In modern times, Scott Parker.

Hans Jeppson might have given him a run for his money but before my time.
Johnny Summers should get a mention
It was hilarious watching him play for us, he was so far ahead of his teammates, it was embarrassing.
