"The List of Players"

Just out of interest, and more probably because I've had a few pints, I'd like to know your 10 favourite players. And not just because of their skill or what they've achieved, but if they're comedy or you just think they're a legend. For example, everyone knows how awesome Thierry Henry is, but he won't be on my list because I don't love him the way I do for Mikey or my Milan. I mean, it'll probably be your club players, but nothing wrong with that. If you're a Huddersfield fan, everyone knows what a legend Efe Sodje is, after all :) Onwards. Oh yes, and no putting Defoe. House rules. Colourless, you'll be mocked for Jesper. Virt, put Kewell down and I disown you, stats or no.

1) Mikey Owen (because everyone knows this)
2) Stevie (because he's the most complete midfield player in the world)
3) Joe Cole (because there's no better English player at the technical stuff)
4) Maniche (because of Pro Evo 3 and my Portugal fascination)
5) Ryan Giggs (Welsh boys stick together)
6) Milan Baros (My Milan)
7) Karel Poborsky (Because of his flowing ex-locks and my Sparta Prague shirt)
8) Djibril Cisse (Because when both legs work, he looks devestating in tandem with my Milan)
9) Andrei Kanchelskis (what a legend)
10) Ronaldinho ('Dinho.)

I got it for my birthday. I'm a little dissapointed with it to be honest.

Wonderful.

Maniche fans united. You know Mourinho is looking for a good defensive midfielder to replace Parker, who could be out until March? Check BBC Sport. We all know Jose likes raiding Porto, and I remember that Jose found Maniche in Benfica Reserves and made him into the player he was, kind of like Paulo Ferreira...Eh Eh Eh?

Maniche at Chelsea...Well, if the 'Pool can't have him :) At least it means I won't have to see the disaster that is Tiago. I mean why? Why Tiago? Maniche is basically Tiago but better in every way.

Please don't tell me you're being serious. That Mendieta goal is incredible. Petrov's was good. Just good.

Coridon's was better than Petrov's.

That goal isn't even as impressive as Petrov's cartwheel/volley combo goal thing the other week. And I hate Petrov.

Disappointing, I'll check at 7.

Bah, the one on just now isn't just footballing moments. Just general sporting achievements. Crud.

One of them should be the goals program, though, as I watched the it yesterday.

Watch Eurosport's Top 50 today, and you'll see an absolute beauty from Maniche in the Superleague. I watched it yesterday. Some other top quality goals in there as well.

On at 4, 7 and 9.30pm today. Eurosport have randomly got a day of complete football. Not doing anything until tonight, so this = good.
