So Jose Mourinho reckons that Ryan Giggs is the greatest ever Premiership player, better than Thierry Henry, Alan Shearer and Eric Cantona.
The Special One should know a thing or two given the number of trophies he won with Chelsea and the way his Inter Milan side are running away with this year's Scuddeto.
But is he right? Here is Icons' top five Premiership players:
5. Steven Gerrard. They say that no player is bigger than the team. Have they not heard of Stevie G?
4. Frank Lampard. Still holds the record for an outfield player of 164 consecutive appearances. A phenomenon.
3. Eric Cantona. Turned Manchester United into the all-conquering force they are today.
2. Alan Shearer. 260 Premiership goals. Will anyone ever beat that?
1. Ryan Giggs. Well no-one ever won an argument with the Special One did they?
We've had our turn. Now it's yours...

No mention for Zola... Bergkamp... Izzet!
ReplyDeleteWhat about Dennis Bergkamp? Surely he made the greatest impact of any player, foreign or English.
ReplyDeleteCantona gets all the glory - but for my money Peter Schmeichel was the player who really made the difference for United
