GERALD SIBON
 
Henry without a doubt, I've never enjoyed watching a player on the ball as much as Henry.
 
Can someone please explain to me why West Ham legend Marco Boogers is not on the list? Its a disgrace.

Haaa tom_7 got told

Err.. no i didnt, there wasnt as much technique in that as Di Canio's, many players could have done what henry did there but not many players could imitate what di canio done

WHAT!! did you not watch that or sumink??, yeh its good control but then its just a strike on the bounce nothing like di canio's, if your gonna try and prove me wrong at least use somethink relevant
 
I know that awareness and vision seperate divisions of football, so for me it's Bergkamp hands down the awareness and vision of the man is exceptional just look at that goal against Newcastle where he flicked it round the man went the opposite way and slid in home.

Where you look at modern players it's pace, strength and the skill that make them so good and I'm not saying vision and awareness is poor but I doubt we will see people with the vision and awareness of Bergkamp and Sheringham for years to come.
 
prove you wrong? lol couldnt care less, whatever i do say or anyone else for that matter... you still wont change your opinon, you will just endlessly stick to your argument, but if you think that thierry henry doesn't have the technique that di canio had/score/have scored, a goal like di canios... then i honestly don't know whats wrong with you.. if your going to base your choice on one goal, then you might aswell just say hitzelsperger was the best foreign player and be done with it..

Whats wrong with me??? Just because someone scores loads of goals and has great pace you think there the best at everything. Di Canio was all about technique, thats what made him such a good player. I wont change my opinion, im not denying henry is a great player, and i did enjoy watching him play but i just think that Di Canio had something different. Henry is by far a better player and i would have loved him at West Ham, no doubt about that:D
 
lol im not slating di canio atall, i think he was a hammers hero, my vote wasnt for henry in the end it was bergkamp anyway :P
 
oh right haha :), Bergkamp was a legend, that goal for Holland - PURE CLASS!!!
 
to be honest, my favourite foreign player in the premiership was none of the above, mine would be robert pires
 
my heart says cantona as a man utd fan - but my head says either henry or bergkamp all top quaity players anyway - voted for bergkamp just to give him a vote, and for that magical goal vrs newcastle

that goal was simply amazing, i was lucky enough to be there...
 
Yeh Pires was a great player, shame the only memorable moment i can remember of him was that shameful penalty against City. That did make me laugh - Great player tho :)
 
I voted for dennis bergkamp truly because he was in a league of his own and his goal against newcastle was a beast of a goal.

truly class.
