I must go with Steven Gerrard. Very rare to find such a quality player with humbleness and with longterm loyalty to his club.

Tough question, there are many... but the question is "favourite" not "the best"

City - Robbie Fowler

Non-City - Alan Shearer
The most important thing for a forward is speed of thought. Top players read the game.

He's implying it's a good job it was a Scouse jury at his trial.

You really genuinely liked that Fowler for us? Each to their own I suppose.
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?

He was a typical Spurs Fancy Dan, big Southern Jessie.
And Shearer was a horrible dirty bastard who got away with murder.
City and sniffing knickers.
Come on Blues.

Got be some of those already mentioned - Gazza, Lineker (best English striker that I've ever seen), and for us Paul Lake, David White and Ian Brightwell just for "that" goal at the swamp.
