Well on to my favourite players of all time:

GODS
ERIC CANTONA - Retired :- Click to download Eric scoring against Sheffield Utd
Like him or dislike him (and a lot of people did) Eric Cantona was a classy player. He gave that
extra little bit of a spark to every team he was playing for, and he played for a lot of teams.
Whether it was France, Nice or United he could swing the match with that little bit of magic that all
great players have. One little flick or a glorious "precision pass" - Alan Green: Radio 5 Live...
60 yard long ball by him could split the opposition like a Tory Party Conference. Yep, he was very
handy with his feet.

RUUD GULLIT - Retired
The coolest, most laid back bloke I have ever seen in my life. When he was on the BBC during Euro '96
he made Des look like he actually needed to use Right Guard! Ok so during his playing career he had a
few dodgy hair cuts but hey, the guy could play football with the best of them. He had precision, power,
tremendous skill and a lovely "porn-star" tash. Even now without the famous tash and hair he is still
one of the coolest guys around. What an accent...I mean who else could say "Pizza" like that and not look like
a complete ARSE!

DES - The Man
Ok so he isn't a footy player but he has been part of football for as long as I can remember and he has
ALWAYS been cool doing it. If he was a footballer he would be Ruud Gullit!
Enough said!

DAVID SEAMAN - Arsenal & England
His voice makes Barry White sound like the Bee Gees, this man is a northerner and proud! He is god like in both
stature and the way he plays, plus he has to put up with "that" name. Commanding in the box, yet still able to go
down on either side(Must be something to do with the name) he is the complete 'keeper. But the best thing is he
saved Gary McCallister's penalty and then conceded the goal that knocked Scotland out of Euro '96!

GEORGE BEST - Retired
Who else had the skill, the flare, the magic, the ability to turn International defenders inside out until they
just crumble in his wake and still go out, get drunk, smoke fags and get the nice women! The man was unique...
well apart from Paul Gascoigne?! Ryan Giggs was compared with him but, and I'm not knocking Ryan here, he is
and will get nowhere near the man.

DAVID BECKHAM - Manchester United
He's only 23, he's got loads of talent, playes for the top team in the country, earns loads of money, is in the
England squad for the World Cup and is engaged to Posh Spice! This man has everything a bloke has ever dreamed of!

and finally.....
BRYAN ROBSON - Manager of Middlesbrough F.C.
The hard tackling "I will give 110% to the cause" God. His play, although sometimes not pretty, was definitely
inspiring to say the least. Ok so he was a little injury prone and there were only two bones in his body that
had not been broken or fractured in some way but he kept coming back for more, still going in as hard and as
precise as always. Now that is a sign of a great player.

DEMI GODS
TERRY BUTCHER - Retired
Yes everone remembers "that" match where he was covered in blood, being strong and making sure that his wife
failed the Daz Doorstep Challenge. But what had he done of note before? Or since?

PETER BEARDSLEY - Bolton Wanderers
Living proof that you don't have to be a pretty boy to play football, but it helps. Eventhough he had lots
of skill he made a mockery of the phrase "The Beautiful Game".

PETER SCHMEICHEL - Manchester United
Has one outstanding feature that made sure that he didn't get into the "GODS" list! The guy is a great
GREAT 'keeper but is there any need for a bum THAT big?! The bacon ad didn't help his cause
either.

SAC AU MERDE(But were cool anyway)
LEE CHAPMAN - Retired
Has had more clubs than a baby seal hunter! But still, he is married to Lesely Ash!

JORDI CRYUFF's AGENT
The son of the great Johan, was taught by one of the best but....
How the wisened Alex Ferguson was conned into spending money on him is still a mystery. Jordi regularly
dissapoints but is good for a laugh. This man must be the sales guru of all time
