Our best ever player

I think a lot of people have nostalgia goggles. The best way to compare players from different era is to see how dominant and regular they were against their competitors.

Aguero: he was as great as Benzema, Ibrahimovic, but I have zero doubts he is below Lewandowski and Suarez.

Yaya: he might have been the best midfielder for 1 season, but in his prime, he was relegated by Busquets (who I think Rodri is even better) in Barcelona. And I don't know how you pick him above Xavi and Iniesta (not to mention Modric, Kroos...).

Silva: For me this is the closest. Maybe never the best in a season, but extremely regular (top 3-5 for a long time).

KDB: he was the best midfielder 2018-2022, and that alone puts him above the rest to me.

Rodri: he is the best midfielder since 2022-2023, so that's 2 years already where he is the best. Even more, only Dilva was great with his national team, but he was not their most important player, which Rodri is.

Right now: KDB, Rodri and Silva in thst order. If Rodri comes back at his 2023-2024 level for a cpuple years, he would be my 1st pick.

For me the question is simple: if I could pick one player to build a winning team around, I don't know how anyone doesn't pick KDB or Rodri first.

I agree wit this. Imo, if Pep's the manager, he would build a team around Rodri. No one of our top players can link defence and attack like him while also being great at stopping counters and scoring vital goals. Also, Rodri's more of captain material than the other legends in the conversation. That said, Kevin's a genius and fantastic to watch.
 
It’s KDB for me. He is in top 3 pl players of all time and would have been undisputed top if not for his injuries.
 
Everyone has got their best player.

I have so many it’s hard to get a top list going.

Sergio title winning goal.

Rodrigo winning goal in champs final. Without Rodri we can’t win a treble nor 4 in a row.

So many players have played their part from:

Bell
Dickov
Yaya
silva
kdb
Komps

For the club only and especially in recent times with the destruction of United and the lies around ffp it has to be Sergio and Rodri.
