Hoddle and then later Stoichkov.

Stoichkov is a great one. Strikers like him and Batistuta just don't seem to exist anymore. The dying age of the striker, all the top players are wingers nowadays.

Loved Hoddle, but Ossie was always my favourite. I was at the lane when that thug Mark Dennis broke his cheek & I cried like I was a little girl, which I was.
