Thanjk you.

I'm gonna do this differently and put only the names of the players that I've actually seen live on the telly (this means that King Kenny, Rush etc. will be excluded ).
So here it is:
1. Steven Gerrard (in my book, he is the best midfielder in the world)
2. Francesco Totti (he is an awesome player and most importantly, he is faithful to his mother club no matter what. I love watching him in the Rome derby. Absolutely brilliant!)
3. Robbie Fowler (the most natural born scorer I ever saw)
4. Michael Owen (was absolutely awesome while with us. The best memory of him is obviously the FA Cup 2001 final )
5. Fernando Torres (I have a feeling he will be better than 5th on my list in a couple of months. I never quite realised how good he is until he signed for Liverpool and played his first match for us. F*****g quality!)
6. Jamie Carragher (loyal to his club - in fact, he's right up there with Totti regarding this . Would run through a brick wall for his club and is one of the best defenders in the world)
7. Sergio Ramos (the guy is amongst the best defenders in the world. Quite astonishing as he is only 21)
8. Thierry Henry (I respected him, but now I just hate him ... I hate everything Barca.)
9. Raúl (he always pops-up in the right place and at the right time, doesn't he?)
10. Luis García (I miss him!)

He's the Austrian League's version of Steven Gerrard, albeit a bit more lightweight. He's nowhere near Gerrard's level of course, but he's head and shoulders above anyone else in the Bundesliga, and has been for about 4 years. In one game this year Rapid scored 5 goals, and he got 5 assists!
When his name is read out over the tannoy, the Rapid fans shout FUSSBALLGOTT!!! after his name. You don't need to know German to understand the sentiment.
Level 2 (off the top of my head):
1. Robbie Fowler
2. Steven Gerrard
3. Kevin Keegan
4. Ian Callaghan
5. Pele
6. Emlyn Hughes
7. Jamie Carragher
8. Thierry Henry
9. Steve Heighway
10. Fernando Torres
George Best, Maradona and Didi Hamman are close contenders..... and so is..... oh, you get the drift......

i never really saw Dalglish play so i can't count him in my top 10, if i had he'd probably be first or second...
