Best player ever in the Premier League?

Giggs was a phenomenal player with a huge amount of trophies in his career. I’d have him back with Wales tomorrow.
 
De Bruyne and Henry.

I know there's a lot of sentiment for players like David Silva and he was truly brilliant but I think those two are just a shade above. I put him more along the level of Bergkamp, Salah etc.. Just brilliant footballers but I'd rank them slightly a notch below someone like Kev who is the best in his era in terms of his job role.

Ronaldo would be there but his best years were not here so I don't think he can be included. Suarez is another one like that, a great footballer but really hit their peak elsewhere, even though they had a very good couple of seasons here before moving.

Some good selections, I daresay some are blue tinted lol. I'm going with Henry, he was truly exceptional.

If you were honestly putting an all time best 11 from the prem with traditional player positonsina 4-3-3 I expect it would go a bit like this.

GK -Schmeichel
RB - Walker
CB - Stones
CB - Adams
LB - Clichy
DM - Viera (pipping Rodri just)
RW - Ronaldo
B2BM - Yaya
AM - Kevin Debruyne
LW - Henry
FWD - Aguero

Ashley Cole would be ahead of Clichy for me.
 
From a Blue perspective it's YaYa for me, immense player and scored big, big goals for us. Winds up the bed wetters on here as well.

From outside the Blue perspective it'd be a close run thing with Henry/Bergkamp. Even without the Blue specs I can't nominate any Rag.

Scholes was a giant beneficiary of Ferguson's intimidation tactics. Pisses me off everytime he flies in studs up and walks away with just a yellow, sometimes not even a yellow. He'd have alot more reds and a more sour reputation had he been playing for any other side.

I’m still amazed that pig ginger received a red in the semifinal.

Adams above Kompany?

Vinnie was a much better footballer.

Adams captained Arsenal and England. He was a legend of a player.

Sad to see Giggs and Scholes getting slagged too.
 
Henry, imho. Shout out to Bergkamp.
From City: Kev, Kev, and Kev again.
Would love to have seen King Colin in this era.

Outrageous team that mate but I can’t have Clichy.

Ake for starters is a better player. Ashley Cole is the best left back the prem has seen, though.
