Subject: Re: Best ever foreigners in history of British football?
I'm a Liverpool fan and it's suprising how few good foreigners Liverpool have had. The only ones that would make this list for me are:
Fernando Torres
Dietmar Hamann
Jan Molby
Bruce Grobelaar
Litmanen was great, but didn't play much. Reina is a cracking keeper, too, and Alonso / Mascherano have enough promise to be added to the list.
Out of those, only Torres (and it's early days) and Molby were truly top, top class.
How has Dwight Yorke's name not yet been mentioned?
Richard Sneekes - no contest....
paulo di canio
Carlos Tevez!
Ruud Van Nistelrooy
Henrik Larrson
Patrick Viera
Paulo Di Canio
John Giles, Paul McGrath, Liam Brady, Steve Heighway, Roy Keane to name only Irsih players. Then there's Henry, Bergkamp, Zola, Larsson, Schmeichel, Cantona, Ardilles, Villa plus more.
As a chelsea fan I would say Zola and if I have to choose Henry
Klinsmann, Ardiles, Villa, Nayim, Berbatov, Davids, Ginola
georgi kinklatsi ( i know i've spelt it wrong)
dose no-one remember ricky villa.........plus has anyone said robbie keane.wat he did for spurz in the last 5 years is astounding
