Players you miss watching in the Prem?

[thesilverfoxlfc]

For me here's some i enjoyed watching..........

Bergkamp
Zola
Viera
Schmeichel
Pires
Overmars
Roy Keane
Asprilla

[AFII]

Owen.

[AFII]

King Kenny.

[Shaggy]

I hated Keane, but I do miss the 'Keane v Vieira' battles. Those clashes were fantastic, and it of course culiminated in their 'tunnel confrontation'. Two absolutely top-class players, top class pros who had an unrivalled desire to win. Great stuff. Arsenal-Scum games aren't the same anymore without those two.

I second that :handshake:

Not really any of those battle left in the prem are they?

[kubrickscube]

Cantona.
Gullit
Vialli

[simey85]

le tisser
asprilla was class to watch when he wanted to be. he just seemed to play when the mood took him if not he didn't bother his arse! still what a player.
zola and bergkamp two top class flair players that could unlock defences kinda what we need!

[lfc4ever]

Ginola, Zola & Bergkamp.

And Shearer, he did what he does with great effect, and it annoyed the fuck out of me, but at the end of the day - I would have loved him to have played for us rather than against us.

[Ron_Mexico]

bergkamp, zola, ginola, pires, viera, ian wright (dickhead but his early days at arsenal he was phenomenal), juninho

[anfieldanfield]

How could anyone miss out Di Canio ?!

[CharlieMansonsSquint]

For me here's some i enjoyed watching..........

Bergkamp
Zola
Viera
Schmeichel
Pires
Overmars
Roy Keane
Asprilla

Schmeichel?:shake:

Why not include Steve Bruce and Gary bloody Pallister?

Others that I can think of:
David Ginola
Robbie Fowler - before he fucked his knee
Le Tissier

[Red Chilli]

Le Tissier
Paoulo Wanchope (against Man Utd-always seemed to score)
George Kinkladze
Temuri Ketsbaia (because he was mental) :rash:
Les Ferdinand
Jay Jay Okotcha (what's happened to him?)

[Shaggy]

Okocha went to Qatar.

[Redlife]

Le Tissier.



Fat bastard. Spectacular though.

[mikeg]

john barnes

[Riddler]

Massimo Taibi.

[anfieldpurch]

Di Canio, le Tissier,Bergkamp,Zola,Okocha,Ginola and Jon Dahl Tomasson (newcy browns)

[cadmium]

Igor Biscan

[Marky]

Dennis Bergkamp - The best Foreign player EVER to grace the Premiership.
Sheer Genius!!

[SouthAfricaRed]

Well Most of them never played in the Premiership, but Most of the Liverpool players of the 70s and 80s :respect:

[tomasjj]

For me here's some i enjoyed watching..........

Bergkamp
Zola
Viera
Schmeichel
Pires
Overmars
Roy Keane
Asprilla

Bergkamp yes.
Zola yes.
Overmars..maybe

The rest nah.

I liked Vialli though.
And Le Tissier of course.

And John Fashanu always scored on penos. :rock:

I actually miss Collymore. Him and Fowler together were electric for a season. Was that around 95-96 sometime?

[Riise6]

Shaun Goater
Roberto Di Matteo
Andrei Kanchelskis

[Craig_H]

Owen.

:haha:

[EST_1892]

Nobody mentioned Cantona.

I alwalys loved waiting for his post match "Seagull" orientated interviews or waiting to see which spectator he tried to decapitate next.

:eyebrow:

[Maestro]

I'm sorry, but I cannot for the life of me understand how anyone could mention enjoying watching Schmeicheal or Cantona. I never enjoyed watching any of them play as they were United scum and any time they played well it was a VERY BAD THING to happen. I despised Schmeicheal and Cantona because they were top of the heap at a time when we were still a long way from it.

[kubrickscube]

But ignoring the team he was playing for - Cantona was class, and the fact he could go from sublime natural skills to losing his rag and hoofing someone just made him more entertaining.

A few more...
Philipe Albert (classy sweeper), Tony Yeboah (when Leeds were good)
and who could forget.. Peter Beardsley!

I know he was class, but I could never ignore the team he played for. It just hurt too much. I wish I could....

[dirty_sanchez]

King Kenny.

When did he play in The Premiership?

[dirty_sanchez]

Bergkamp yes.
Zola yes.
Overmars..maybe

The rest nah.

I liked Vialli though.
And Le Tissier of course.

Asprillia was quality.

Collymore would have been world class if he wasn't such a twat. He had everything that a forward needed apart from the attitude. He honestly could have been the English Ronaldo.

A mate of mine is a big Forest fan and, still to this day, he raves and raves about Collymore. Reckons he's the best player he ever saw blah blah blah.

Such a shame he never reproduced his Forest form for us.

Agree with Maestro too - how any Red can name Schmeichel and (especially) Cantona is beyond me. Cantona can go fuck himself up the arse anyway. The most overrated piece of shit ever to poison our league. Great against your Sunderlands, Sheff Uniteds and Swindons, what the fuck did he ever do in Europe or against the big sides? (And I mean consistently). Fuck all, that's what. He went missing time and time again on the biggest stages. The only time I remember him doing anything on a big stage was, unfortunately, in that horrible Cup final.

Totally and utterly overrated.

agree with that even keane said that he went missing in europe!

[yukpo]

Roy Keane by far.

[tsb]

Fowler of yore...

[Harv]

Bergkamp
Zola
Ginola
Le Tiss
Overmars
Pires
Poyet
Vialli
Gullit
Collymore
Di Canio
Kinkladze
Kevin Phillips was amazing for Sunderland...he just couldnt stop scoring!
the Keane vs Vieira battles
Paddy Berger for us

thats about it for me...im sure ive missed some, but those guys, especially the top few where outstanding, and TBH i dont watch nearly as much football as i used to when these guys were all playing. Its just not the same anymore.

Le Tissier

when you think back fcuk me he was unbelievable if someone was doing what he did now they would be a world superstar, the impact he had was phenomenal!

[dirty_sanchez]

Fowler's problem was never his ability, it was his attitude. If you read his autobiography, it's clear that he could have been even better if he had anything remotely resembling a work ethic.

[spud_gun]

Marco Boogers.

[Tee]

I miss Gazza :rock:

[Boogar]

Fowler's problem was never his ability, it was his attitude. If you read his autobiography, it's clear that he could have been even better if he had anything remotely resembling a work ethic.

I am on the last couple of pages and from what I have gauged from the book it was clearly Ged and Thomo who were his major problem and not his attitude.

[Red Chilli]

Cuntona Schmeichel and Keane can all go and fuck themselves up the arse*
