Favourite non-NUFC players to watch

More or less any defensive midfielder of note and any paceless '10' of note. I'm also massive hypocritical cunt as I generally like players who play with a smile on their face but occasionally there'll be a player who is a massive cunt who I like.

 

I'm far more a fan of players who are technically good and use their bonce to aid them than pure athletes who just dominate people like say Vieira or Drogba or someone (although they obviously have a clever side too).

 

Aside from the blatantly obvious a few names off the top of my head would be Redondo, Gattuso, Suarez, Aimar, Ramsay, Di Matteo.

Matt Le Tissier was always my fav non-toon player back in the day. Some of the goals he scored were ridiculous. Robbie Fowler and Van Nistelrooy in their first few seasons were absolute machines in front of goal as well. Always entertaining to watch if they weren't scoring against us. Paolo Di Canio and Zola were likeable as well.

Probably a bit of a 'different' shout to others, but when Coventry had Mustapha Hadji and Youssef Safri, those 2 seemed to really like playing together, and Hadji had a right shot on him.

 

Another couple of favourite strikers from the past - Hristo Stoichkov and Davor Suker. 2 amazing left foots.

Another of the left foot striker brigade among my favourites... Christian Vieri. Shame that Ronaldo seemed to get injuries galore when Vieri and Ronaldo were at Inter. Those 2 up front would have been unreal if they could have forged a great, consistent partnership.

That whole Fiorentina set up was ridiculous. Lush kit with a class sponsor, Batigol scoring goals like he had some disease, Rui Costa strutting about being class. Cois sitting in the middle, Toldo in goal. Lovely.

They had a 'decent' team that one year with Keane and Dublin upfront and Gary Mac pulling the strings in the middle.
