david silva. always loved him and KNEW city made the signing of the season then and there. he is the only player that makes their team run, like fabregas was here.

rooney works his ass off.

bale. shame who he plays for. but real quality.

loved pirlo in his prime.

If they were in the same team, are you suggesting Ronaldo should be more tightly marked than Messi

You can't compare Ronaldo to the Maradonna, Zidane and Pele, but Messi is up there.
No ifs, no buts, Messi is the best player.

Stephen Ireland.

* Amazing ability to tell lies.

* Lives in a Â£5million house.

* Has a collection of cars worth hundreds of thousands.

* Bought his lap-dancer girlfriend a Â£270,000 Bentley for her 21st birthday.

* Has a Fish Tank worth over Â£100,000 ( I kid you not).

Incredible really for someone with f**k all talent - but that's modern football

And he has more Grannies than Wayne Rooney could even dream of.

My favourite non Arsenal player from the seventies was Alan Hudson from the early eighties was Steve Williams..then they both joined us. So here's hoping for history to repeat itself..I love Messi

In school when you couldn't admit to any player who wasn't an Arsenal player being good, Robbie Fowler. I always thought he was shit hot. And he actually was, so no shame.

Recently I always thought Crouch had something about him when he floated round Villa Southampton and a bit of Liverpool. I never wanted him at Arsenal though.

If the shock of hearing that had caused her to have a heart attack, they could have killed two birds with one stone and Ireland wouldn't have got caught!!!

Love Messi.
Really rate Rio Ferdinand.
Think Xavi is an absolute God.
I think David Villa is unbelievable.
Iniesta is the dog's testies....
Guardiola is for me, the best manager in the world.

Is there a theme developing here!!!!
