For Harps id say Tom Mohan, Johnny Speak or Fergal Harkin

overall the best player ive seen come to Finn Park was George O'Callaghan.:) it might change though as i think of it more.

The question is not who was the best player over the course of ten years, it was who was the best player within the last ten years. Ability over longevity.
I think Dempsey and Murphy were the two best I've seen at Waterford in that time, even if it was only briefly.

I know the question was 'in the last 10 years' but I cant let the moment pass without a mention for Barry Kehoe, he died in 2002 aged only 40. In my opinion the best ever left sided player of all time in LOI. Won two lges with Dundalk in the 80`s and inspired us to the double of 88. A brilliant player and a lovely fella to boot.

"one of the only"?
Sorry, correcting grammar is a bit gay.
Ndo is a more acomplished player than John in that respect.
I know he's an a better position to show his talents but he shone in a better LOI team and iirc did well in a much better World Cup team.

when it comes to best players everyone seems to forget about goal keepers,

mick devine for me is the top player in the country for the last 10 seasons,
brilliant for waterford and cork

Not comparable. Dixie Dean as a goalscorer was unrivalled. As an all rounder, no doubt Charlton was a better player.

Kevin Hunt in the seasons 99/2000 to 2004 gets my vote.

Others - Coyle, Osam, Owen Heary.

I agree, anytime I saw Dixie Dean he looked a little off the pace. Although that could be my memory playing tricks with me. ;)
