Ronaldo Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Zog shouldn't be anywhere near this list. Anyway my vote goes to Ginola - obscenely talented footballer, Robert could only dream of doing some of the stuff Ginola did & could never destroy a full back like Ginola could. Don't get me wrong; Robert was fantastic for us but he was also selfish. Daveeed was pure class. I think Robert had a lot of confidence in his ability but his assists rate suggest he wasn't really selfish at all. I remember him putting it on a place for Acuna at Goodison when 99% of players would have had a go themselves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 the game against Derby (a) in 2002 springs to mind here in the second half, Robert had 3 shots on goal when most players wouldn't have even considered shooting. One ended up in the back of the net and the other two hit the woodwork Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
