Favourite non-Spurs PL players

[klinsmann66]

Craig Bellamy
Joey Barton
Lee Bowyer
Sol Campbell

:rofl:

Mine is Robbie Savage. (OOPPPS OK NOT IN PREMIER AT MO).........

 

[mil1lion]

Messi -World class player but doesn't dive around like Ronaldo and plays with a smile on his face
Beckham - A legend of the game who always gives 100%

and in England...
Arteta - Should be in a top 4 team. Top class playmaker
Ashley Young and Agbonlahor- Exciting and young. Hope they make it at International level. Both will be snapped up by the top clubs though
Anderson - So much promise and very pleasing on the eye
Carrick and Berbatov - If only
Essien and Mascharano- Destructive midfielders
Rooney and Tevez - World Class players who run themselves into the ground and show great passion for the game
Frank Lampard and Stevie G - If only they could do it for England
Fabregas - Sorry but he's just incredible. But he did come from my Spanish side so....
Giggs and Scholes - Have given so much to the Premier League and still going strong
Rio Ferdinand - Simply World Class

Its disturbing how many Man Utd players i like really, but they are a great example of how the game should be played. And they fully deserve to win the Title.

I don't think its wrong to like man Utd players. They are by far the best team around (I'd say world).
Even when their top players are out injured, the bench players come in and do just as good a job.
Unbelievable.

Currently:

Almunia - oozes class and 'nice' hair. Reminds me of a pic I once saw of our very own gobshite off the jumbotron!! :wink:

Eboue - Probably the fairest, most genuine player there is, reminds me of a young Sol Campbell.

Nasri - His "cocky little shit" face has a kind of smugness that you can only applaud.

 

[Netty]

Gerrard
Tevez
Berbatov
Carrick

Watching them play the other day i was almost tempted to start a thread about how great a team they are - their passing, movement off the ball and awareness is outstanding, the pace of their attacking play is mindblowing. Back up the other end, with Rio & Vidic in the middle, i honestly think they have the best CB pair for some years to come.

Lets face it, if you don't have roots in any other UK team and you just watched videos of each teams recent achievements and style, you can see why so many plump for the red lot from Trafford.

 

[Coyboy]

what are you on about he is one of the most incompetent strikers i have ever come across!!

anyway my favourite pl players are

vidic
ferdinand
evra
berba
tevez
carrick
valencia
rodallega(could well be on the list)
tucay

Yea he incompetently scores against us every time and incompetently scores one very other game and Arsenal have been wonderfully competent in front of goal while he has been out.

 

[Kendall]

Arshavin
Rooney
Carrick
Fletcher
Vidic
Berbatov
Cahill

 

[riversmonkey]

Clint Dempsey - for his rhyme skills
Dean Windass - a complete throwback to the days of Jan Molby and Micky Quinn
Wayne Rooney - best English footballer in the country, miles ahead of the rest
Stephen Ireland - A bit of a twat off the pitch but has arguably been player of the season in the Premier League.
Rio Ferdinand - great player, 2nd best English centre back in the country (after Ledley!).

 

[Kendall]

As highly rated as Rooney is by pundits I still think he's underrated!

What an awesome talent we have on our hands here, he is incredible an almost complete footballer.

 

[spurslenny]

My faves are the players who are not at spurs, but are not beyond our reach should they be availably for transfer.

J Cole
Krancjar
Santa Cruz
O Hargreaves

Agreed. Probably the best English all round footballer ever IMO! Workrate, skill, power, passion, finishing, passing, leadership...I could go on.

 

[miles_64]

Yep, probably should have included Rooney, Carrick and Berbatov in my original list but I will never forget that footage on Sky Sports News of Berbatov walking into the MUFC boardroom and shaking hands with Ferguson. It was like watching your girlfriend cheat on you with a better looking and wealthier man. Rooney is pretty much the only reason why I watch the national team these days.

Someone earlier mentioned Man U's movement - why can't we do the same?! So exasperating! They all work so damned hard - is it just built in to our club ethic to be a little bit lazier than everyone else?

 

[nldnboi]

Berbatov
Carrick
Rooney
Ashley Young
Toure
Matt Taylor
Anelka
Micah Richards
Tuncay
Collison

 

[llamafarmer]

In no particular order:
Arteta - Class act and should get more recognition than he does imo
Torres - Pacey, stylish and exciting and he's got the best song in the PL!
Berbatov - Best touch I've ever seen in the PL and I'm proud to say he played for us
Carrick - Our biggest loss since.... God knows when. Not properly appreciated in England

 

[southgatespur40]

Yea he incompetently scores against us every time and incompetently scores one very other game and Arsenal have been wonderfully competent in front of goal while he has been out.

it takes him 10 chances to score 1 goal he manages to score against us because we are just one of those clubs for him.

all adebayor excels at is pace on and off the ball he shocking at everything else any arsenal fan will testify that.

 

[robbiesavagehasbreasts]

straight up.....

Ashley Young.

 

[Chaplain]

I like Jaaskelainen and Jagielka - solid, good players

Berbatov and Carrick - ex-spurs and still playing very well (Carrick even better than before)

Arteta and Cahill for the Toffees, talented players

and Essien, as he's really an excellent player and one I'd love to have at spurs. I also have a soft spot for Elmander and Malbranque (I really miss Malbranque) - I think they would slot into Spurs well.

Most of Manchester United in for a mention as well, like Giggs, Scholes and Vidic.

 

[Rackybear]

Adebayor is a good player, hate to admit it, but its the truth. He has some skill, capable of one hell of a finish (think WHL last season, 3-1), and is amongst the top assist in the EPL at the moment for a player who is incredibly greedy in front of goal.

Pretty much exactly like Drogba.

 

[CosmicHotspur]

Torres
Vidic
Carrick


My top three but there are plenty of others I wish were playing at the Lane.
