I cannot remember why, but I suddenly thought of Noel Whelan the other day. Anyone remember him? That got me thinking of those players that lit up the Premiership for a while - domestic stars. They may or may not have been well-known but real blockbuster players. I don't mean players like Giggs who go into "legend" status, the ones that might have made it had a few things gone their way. I thought of:
G Kinkladze - what a player, amazing close control.
Darren Huckerby - think he is in MLS now. Very promising as a youngster, well quick.
T Yeboah - who can forget those goals against Wimbledon and Liverpool?
Matt Le Tissier - maybe a little too well known for this list but majestic in his prime.
P Van Hoojidonk - a lot of good free kicks
S Collymore - most expensive player in the UK and absolutely phenomenal a year either side of the transfer.
Thoughts? I just want a reason to trawl through youtube!
