    Don't disagree with many players listed. But I very much disagree with the order...

    Steve G number one, when you have Zola and Ginola below him...

    Very debatable I guess at least.

    Pelé seems a bit of an oversight as well.

    You aren’t seriously arguing that Ginola was a better all round footballer than Gerrard?

    I'm more arguing about Steve G being number 1 if anything.

    Given the choice of either who I'd want playing for us at the height of their careers, yes I'd probably go with Ginola. Appreciate others won't or hold different opinions.

    Paulo Maldini.

    As an aside: (Did Peter Shirtliff play for us in the Premier League? He was in my Premier League 98 sticker album but says he retired in 1997?)

    I don’t remember him starting any games but he was a sub more than once.
    My memory isn’t good enough to recall whether he actually played

    Longevity comes into these too.

    It’s like when they talk about the greatest premier league players of all time.

    Cristiano Ronaldo’s the greatest player to have played in the premier league by some distance but he doesn’t get ranked above Henry or Shearer on most of the lists as he was only in his prime for probably 2 seasons in this country before he joined Real Madrid.
