    Cristiano Ronaldo in his prime was absolutely sensational to watch. R9 too for largely the same reason, he made football look magical. Right now, KDB, Bellingham and Odegaard in terms of favourite footballers to watch. But favourites just in terms of me absolutely loving them and wanting them to do well? Podolski

    Jimmy Greaves …..but all time favourite is Kevin De Bruyne.
  • Past: Glenn Hoddle

    Present: Phil Foden
  • Some fabulous players on this list and my own would probably be different on any given day. No Iniesta yet for example? I'm a sucker for those clever, non-flashy players who never lose possession, are always looking for the ball, ticking things over and see and complete passes others can only dream of. 

    But limiting myself to current crop I'd probably also go KDB but Foden is getting up there.

    Pirlo, Ronaldo, Messi... I have a list, but those three are my top ones even though they're not too inspiring.

    Great shout Iniesta. 
    Always liked him the most out of those great Barca/Spain teams

    The talent in those teams was off the scale.

    I also had a soft spot for Alonso. The good one, not the duffer who ended up at ours.

    Watched Barca pump Madrid 3-1 at the Bernabeu in 2011. Likes of Messi, Ronaldo, Xavi, Ozil, Kaka, Alexis Sanchez and Xabi Alonso all played but Iniesta stood out by a mile. Magnificent little player.
  • Declan Rice - plays with a smile on his face, seems a proper gent

    Saka is without doubt my favourite player around at the moment. Brilliant footballer, intelligent (he has A levels don't y'know), down to earth and just seems like a top bloke. A proper role model for young players trying to make it.

    When i was a kid my favourite player was Gazza after i saw him tear Charlton apart at Selhurst Park. At the end of that season he went to Italia 90 and became a worldwide star.

    Modern day it has to be Messi. I don't think we'll ever see anyone as good as him again.
