    "Favourite" isny the same as best. ;)

    And I'm showing my age, but there was a time in the mid 70's when I couldn't see past Steve Heighway.

    I like wingers. (I don't like John Bishop, but this was the best video I could find.)

    being serious,off the top of my head, Frank worthington. Right old school, didn’t give a monkeys and some player. The time he flipped it over butchers head and vollied it. Could have had * of a career but like most of the better player then didn’t give a *...

    Ronaldinho. Just glided past players and could do unbelievable things with the ball. That free kick against England was a thing of beauty. I was gutted when he fell out of love with the game, so it appeared anyway. When he was at Milan he just didn't look interested. At his best though, what an entertainer.

    Messi and Iniesta for me too. The best player of all time by far, and Iniesta was a master at his role.

    Zidane.

    Can remember when he was at Bordeaux we got a wee link with him. Sublime footballer and I like he's a tad mental too.

    Xavi, Iniesta and Messi... the peak of modern football for me.

    Also worth mentioning Roberto Carlos, Rivaldo and Dani Alves.

    My family say I have a ManCrush on him, but THOMAS MULLER is my all-time favourite non-Celtic player. Loved him in German colours, and as a Bayern fan, love him even more in Bayern colours.

    Loved watching Maldini and Baresi back in the day, Maldini inparticular made the art of defending look effortless.
