I'm feeling especially creative today so I'm making a thread that no one else could possibly think about.

Who are your favourite players:

1. Currently playing for the team that you support
2. Currently playing for a different/rival team
3. Retired, played for the team that you support
4. Retired, played for a different/rival team
 
1. Bruno currently plays on the team that I support. I find his moaning and other in game behaviours deeply annoying, so some form from another player could easily see them move ahead as it has in the past, but at the moment he kinda has it by default.
2. Ogbene currently doesn't play for Ipswich Town because he's been out nearly all season with an injury, though I love him dearly.
3. Patrice Evra is retired and played for the team that I support. I enjoyed watching him a lot until his last few seasons. We should've gotten rid earlier. He may also be insane.
4. Nwankwo Kanu is presumably by this point finally retired and played for a different/rival team. I like that he was fun to watch without being so good I resent it.

4. Ronaldo Fenom; Maradona
 
1. Bruno - comfortably our best player post Fergie, for all the complaints about his theatrics and petulance from the likes of Neville and Keane they never had to play in teams as poor as this and would have thrown their toys out much worse if they played alongside players who give the total lack of effort.

Also really like Amad.

2. Yamal - Glides with the ball and seems to be able to pick and deliver a pass while running at top speed, really hope he stays injury free as he is something special.

3. Ronaldo- His fanboys and his narcissism can make you actively route against him. Although he’s not quite as good as Messi which is part of his and their problem he’s still absolutely phenomenal. While he spent most of his prime years at Madrid I still prefer the version we got, especially in those last 3 years when he was less worried about stat-padding and played with more trickery.

4. Ronaldinho - The most fun footballer to watch I have ever seen, did everything with a big grin and outrageous imagination, if he had more drive he’d be in more argument to be considered the greatest ever.

Honourable mentions for Okocha and Quaresma who were flawed players but great entertainment. Also use to really enjoy watch Lehmann at Arsenal because he’d take the bait everytime someone tried to wind him up.
