    Your Club's Best Player

    Basically a question to anyone who supports a foreign team, who's the best player you've ever seen play for your team, or any team I suppose, my pick is Chris Waddle for Sheffield Wednesday. He may not have been the most energetic, but he is by far and away the most skillful player I've ever watched in the Wednesday jersey. He also gave me my favourite moment as a Wednesday fan with his goal in the 93 FA Cup semi final against Sheffield United

    One for the Wednesday fans out there

    Kazuyoshi Miura (remember him? Kazy Miura, first Japanese player to go to Italy, and he was woeful there) who is still plying his trade at 37 with Yokohama FC, who are currently bottom of the premier division in Japan.

    Not the greatest I know, but I only support Limerick and whoever my local team is wherever I'm living.

    Man City: Giorgi Kinkladze, if nothing else, for that goal against Southampton and staying with the club when we were relegated

    Celtic: Larsson or Moravcik. Can't pick between them.
    All goals, yellow and red cards tweeted in real time on mastodon, BlueSky and facebook

    Ronaldinho.
    closely followed by Olivier Dacourt.
    Then Djalminha.
    City definetly have the best bands playing at half-time.

    Chelsea : Easy...........Gianfranco Zola. Absolutely amazing player. The first time I saw him was when he scored a hat-trick in the FA Cup against Liverpool back in '97. And I've been a Chelsea fan since. He was even up to it in 2003 at the tender age of 36. Stamford Bridge legend.

    I have been lucky enough see Maradona, Platini and van Basten play in the flesh. Also more recent legends like Zizou, Figo, Baggio, Maldini and others.

    Not forgetting homegrown legends like Giles, Brady, Heighway, Whelan, Keane, McGrath and Lawrenson.

    The best is obviously Diego Armando.

    "Kazu" played a few games as a guest player (don't ask...) with Sydney FC last season. He attracted a couple of thousand japanese to games but he mostly played pretty ordinary. Looked really fit for his age though.

    Yes, just because I didn't see him in person doesn't mean it shouldn't count.

    Still bitter about Uruguay so you can find a reason to moan about my every post?

    You follow two sides in the English league

    Paulo di Canio for Sheffield Wednesday (until he pushed the ref ).
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.
