Who's the best player you've seen in the flesh?

I'll start with Kenny Dalglish - quality!

 

You mean naked? nt

 

on the pitch!

 

Wayne Rooney

Nicky Wroe Close 2nd

 

Paul Scholes nt

 

Oh



I'd go for Le Tissier.

 

John Charles, class striker and defender.

 

George Best. nt

 

Glavin or Colin Bell nt

 

Gazza , Paul Malcolm testamonial. nt

 

Figo - and he was awesome on the night nt

 

Gosh that's hard...

... agree about Dalgleish, but Eddie Gray, Johnny Giles, Rud Guliett, Bryan Robson, I have to say the best 'modern' one has to be Bergkamp !!!!!

 

Zidane

I got a freebie to watch Manure & Juve in the Champions League.

Before the game, I had no idea who he was. But, he was pure magic from start to finish.

BTW, Roy Keane "filled in" a centre-back for Manchester United and was also superb. Eric Cantona played - and sadly, he looked badly out of shape and well past his best.

 

RE: Gazza , Paul Malcolm testamonial. nt

at Bellie Vue before the World Cup. When the supposed stars didn't turn up Gazza did, and demonstrated what a great footballer he was. He even apologised to our keeper.

 

Ardilles Tottingham (he called em) at Carrow Road he was the compact all round football

 

Alan Simonsen - I pretty sure he was turning out for Barcelona - c.1978 - they played at Forest - he was European footballer of the year at the time and I had no idea why... until then. He was completely weedy, but enough of such insults.

 

George Best

My Dad.

Would have been England Centre Half had he not had his hip smashed to pieces.
Played alongside Billy Wright at Wolves.

 

One man team , he was superb that night. nt
