Top Feared Players in Prem past and Present

Who are your top 10 feared current players in the Premier League. By this I mean their very presence on the pitch / team sheet makes opposition managers set up to counter the danger? Basicially players who could rip a team a new one by attributes like pace, commitment, power, being a monster etc - please note, not necessarily the best players but players who strike fear into the opposing teams and their fans, merely by their presence.

Mine are:

1. Suarez - All Attributes - Prone to diving
2. Walcott - Pace, Directness, Scoring Ability
3. Aguero - All Attributes
4. Hazard - Trickery, Directness, Pace
5. RVP - Goal Scoring Ability
6. Yaya Toure - Beast of a man - All attributes
7. Kompany - Great leader, defensive animal who strikers I'm sure dread.
8. Terry - Same as Kompany, you'd prefer to play chelsea without him.
9. Gerrard - Leader- All attributes - same as Terry and Kompany
10. Dzeko - Beast, Handfull for defenders
And one for luck 11. Silva - Magician

Top 10 Players from the past who were feared by opposition:

1. Thierry Henry - All Attributes
2. Christiano Ronaldo - All Attributes - The Complete Player
3. Gareth Bale - Pace, Power
4. Michael Owen - Pace, Goal Scorer
5. Alan Shearer - Goalscorer
6. Dennis Bergkamp - Einstein in Boots 'nuff said
7. Ryan Giggs - Pace
8. Didier Drogba - Beast, Arsenal Bully, Goalscorer, prone to diving
9. Paul Scholes - Combative Attributes, Complete Player
10. Keane - c u next tuesday, leader, monster, hard man
And another for luck 11. Vieira - monster, leader, hard man

I have put prone to diving on Suarez and Drogba, not to WUM, but to highlight that I feared penalties against these players. Much the same as Robben at Munich.

Personally I rather face Coutinho especially around the penalty box when he has the urge to shoot. Worst striker of the ball in the league, don't know what goes in his head when he decides to shoot.

Schmeichel.... thats a good one.... Forgot about how much of a beast he was. Strikers one on one with him would over think things and often not score.... Good inclusion

Personally Aguero for me. Most dangerous player Arsenal have faced this season so far.

------------------

Totally agree.... the guy's a class above. Him and Suarez are a country mile ahead of any other player in the league IMO. Ozil next season could join that bracket of player
