Would TH be the best player you've seen against Bolton? if not, then who? Ronaldo? Drogba? Ribery? to name a few.

 

Retired today, what a player he was.

Gerald Cid. That is in fairness a very good point.

Not from the top drawer but every time we played Villa for years Gareth Barry was the best player on the pitch.

Remember Barry's screamer for City against us a couple of years back? I was sat right behind that and it was the most painfully glorious thing I've seen

Best season in, season out was Stephen Gerrard.

Against us consistently? Ryan Giggs

 

I know and I'm sorry

Robbie Fowler did alright against us.

I cant actually remeber Ribery having that good a game.

 

him and podolski were relentless in coming at us all game

 

was a relief when they both went off

Colin cunting Cooper.........

Robbie Fowler did alright against us.

Was it just the 3 hatricks or 4?

Was it just the 3 hatricks or 4?

 

Just 2, I think.

 

He got 4 when we lost 5-2 at Anfield

He got all 3 in a 3-0 defeat at home to Leeds on the coldest Boxing Day ever

 

He got 2 for City when we lost 3-1 and he's scored in 3 or 4 other games against us.

Henry probably the "best player" I've seen against us - personally think he's the most world class player of the last 15-20 years, with Gerrard having the best performance

 

bloody loved some of the goals Henry scored

 

such as

 

I enjoyed this one as well

 

Pure Class

I had the pleasure of watching Henry this season for New York Red Bulls and he scored 2, still oozed class.

 

But saying that, Bradley Wright Phillips looked class also, in the yank league.

Arguably not the very best, but Frank Lampard is a player I've always admired. Solid, dependable and contributes more than his fair share of goals

I enjoyed this one as well

 

Aye. Very few goals when you think, have I just seen that?

 

Barthez did nothing but watch too

It felt like Jason fucking Roberts always scored against us.

It was always cold, pissing it down and a shit dull nil nil the entire ground miserable as fuck. Then on 85 minutes on came Roberts to scab one in for who ever he was employed by that season and make me even more twatting miserable.

 

No idea if this factually correct or not but it seemed that way.

Sounds familiar Franky!

Thierry will be on Sky Sports come next season. Which is nice

Got to say that double save from Jussi from Henry was top drawer.

Ronaldo on his debut against us at old twatford.

 

I know he only had Nicky Hunt to beat, but even so he was (and still is) playing on a different planet.

 

Soz, etcs..

which end were you in back then?

 

to be fair to hunt, he went straight though him before he'd had his first touch

 

then got bum raped

 I am glad somebody else remembers Barnes destroying us whilst playing for Northampton - a real low point.

 

I also agree about Jason Roberts - he seemed to revel in playing against Wanderers.

 

Painful to say but Twinkle toes is the best around. 

Ruud Gullit

 

 

Remember watching him against Chelsea at Burnden and still say it was the best individual performance against us I've ever seen.

Better than Glenn Helder?
