Favourite players form other teams

Just a bit of fun so keep it clean boys. As I've got older I've chilled on the rivalry side of things. The Prem has some really good players at the moment so who are your favourites? This isn't about quality per se - it's about who you enjoy watching.

So here are some of mine;

Hazard - my favourite player in football outside of Anfield. For me he could reach Zidane levels. Balance, pace, technique, passing, touch, control and a speed of thought that allows him to read the game. Love watching him I really do.

Sanchez - street footballer innit. His touch ain't amazing but again pace, power, balance and control whiilst also having bottle. A joy to watch on song.

Oscar - a bit maligned by some but he has the attributes that I appreciate. Technically superb.

Andy Carroll - I know! But when the big man is on song, and he is at the moment, he is almost unplayable. Always liked an old fashioned English centre forward.

Sissokho - pure power and it's always good to see players carry the ball and break the lines. Edge of the seat kind of player but should score more.

Silva - technical, clever and humble. The kind of player I'd like to be.

Toure - see Sissokho but with quality to the power of twelfty

Zabaletta - you know you like another teams player when you call them zabs or something. No nonsense, quality right back with a great attitude and consistency. Hard not to admire.

I've others I'm sure but who do you like and why?

Favourites have got to be: Matt Le Tissier, Benito Carboni, Juninho, Kinkladze, Okocha, Zola, Di Canio and even Jimmy Bullard for a couple of seasons.

Thats my kind of list. Players who get you up off your arris.

Agreed. Steven Ireland, SWP and Barton all had a couple of seasons where they were playing out of their skin. Who was the lad at Blackburn who went awful - the left winger?

Kanchelskis for Everton. We were terrible at the time, but he could match that or look like the best player on the planet. But he excited the crowd anytime he had the ball

He'd put some timber on when he came on the pitch at half time last week
Nearly as rotund as Luke Shaw

My word

Firstly, that's the only one you picked out? Seriously?
Secondly, that went to far over your head that I'm pretty sue that it's just passed across the face of Saturn.
