Question Your Top Ten Players In The Premiership Since Its Inception

Preferably listed in order.

Judged on ability, effectiveness and performance.

Try and not be too biased, i know for some this may prove difficult.

(One of the reasons for this topic is from another board, where someone has included Bergkamp, but not Cantona. I found that pretty strange. Class player though Bergkamp was, I don't think his performances were of the level of Cantona's, nor did he seem to make the difference in big games, which Cantona invariably did).

I was suggesting that you might feel such a suggestion is not so crazy.

I'd say being the key player in 4 title winning seasons is more than enough to be honest.

Yeh if only he'd taken us to 4 Premiership titles like Zola did for Chelsea in around the same number of years.

Zola > Cantona
