Quality player, quality finisher. Never in the press, always smiling, has come back from career-threatening injuries, and snubbed the chance to move a number of times. Seems a nice bloke as well.
Henry of Arsenal is the obvious choice, a joy to watch. Although to me the one I most admire is the most complete player in his position Paul Scholes (OK maybe his tackling is bad) but was gutted when he turned his back on England.
Agree with Henry and Eltham .......... It is Giggs and Zola for me.
I am normally too partisan to enjoy the oppostion - but those two are special and I have always enjoyed watching those two at the Valley - even though Zola was often a sub.
And you never hear anythnig bad about them, in fact you never hear anything much about them at all away from the games.
The bloke has been hated by all and sundry for years because he speaks his mind and he is one bloody good footballer to boot. Another who you never see in the press.
Continuing the Bolton theme Kevin Nolan. Underated player who comes across as a down to earth lad who still maintains links with his junior team and coaches them.

Carragher....will run through a brick wall for Liverpool and indeed has done...particularly in that now famous European Cup final...flogged himself near to death he did...what a player.

Nicest footballer there has ever been.
Modern day, the likes of Matt Le tiz or Steve Bull for the loyalty they showed their clubs. Or was it lack of ambition???
Bryan Robson was a fantastic pro for Man Utd and England, in the same league as Steve Gerrard.
Not
Always admired Stuart Pearce as player and manager.

Think he has the potential to make a very good manager though.
Thought better of you than that. Like him very much as an England player, probably one of the best right backs we have ever produced.
But his winey, nasal Manc voice irritates me and he is/was one of the main reasons why United were hated so much before Chelsea came along
I really hope he makes the switch!
Local lad, plays football the right way and enjoys himself.
Been there for years, quietly going about his buisness.
Class player!
