Best player from our doldrums years (1980 to roughly 2009)

Francis for pure quality, Kinky for getting me out of my seat.

I loved Lakey and thought he absolutely had the talent to go to the top but my biggest regret (possibly off topic, I accept) is Michael Johnson not fulfilling his potential. I thought he was going to be a fantastic player, very much in the KDB mould, a combination of balance, technique and power!!

Used to like David Phillips. Scored some cracking goals for us in the mid 80s, including the first against Charlton in the 5-1. A shout out for Paul Simpson, also, another scorer in that game.

And we swapped him for Perry ****** Suckling! Probably our best player in exchange for Carlo Nash and Jimmy Savilles love child. This piece of business was up there with anything Swales ever did(or should that be down there)

Anelka was a few levels above and our best striker

(I thought Weah would be)

Distin the most underated defender in PL history is also a good pick.

James was our nest keeper

Horlock was a great midfielder

Not a chance that David James was better than Tony Coton.
 
Coton

Hinchcliffe
Hendry
Distin
Corluka

Kinkladze
Lake
Gow
Wright-Phillips

Anelka
Francis

Anelka being the best

Honourable shout-outs to Michael Johnson, Ali Benarbia, Paul Walsh, Richard Dunne et al.
