Who is your favorite English player of 'your' era'?

Postby paulmclaren » Wed Oct 03, 2012 1:39 am

Mine has to be Frank Lampard, i think he's a class player, getting on now 34 near the end of an era for him.
Great player, England legend imo, not played no way near enough with Geerard over the years i think, due to injury's etc.
Top pro and player.
Must admit though, Gerrard should of been playing for a team like Madrid, but a LOYAL player good on him.

Non City LeTissier, always worth watching. Gascoigne likewise.
In terms of City, Little Shauny and Sir Colin of Bell.
But you could also make a case for Big Joe, err Big Dave Watson, Mick Doyle, and Dennis Tueart.
City and sniffing knickers.
Come on Blues.

That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Like so many others have said, Le Tissier. Was always joy to watch him. I have somewhere video of Le Tissiers first hundred goals and I swear (apart from penalties) he just didn't do crappy goals.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Big Joe Corrigan - was always my hero, was always JC when playing football in the park, and if I was not goalie then I was always Colin Bell.
Also had sneaking admiration for Peter Lorimer - fuck could that guy hit the ball..!
