Lol this is brilliant, thank you.

606 has spoken. Fabregas not rated too highly, think I had him too low myself.

TOOR can add this to his list of Gerrard's individual accolades.

Without doubt, it's happening. I just need to wait for the next Gerrard debate and then I'm wheeling it out.

My list:

1. Scholes
Dont care about the rest.

Funny how Wahl has to bring up such a list but I was arguing with colleagues the other day that as a creative force, Cesc, Silva and even Ozil blow De Bruyne out of the water.

Obviously KDB has other qualities but even his goal scoring has dropped.He is 29 now but I guess he still has the opportunity to surpass the other players.

Surprised Fernandinho is not in this list.



In order of how good they were (at their best):

Patrick Viera

Daylight

Steven Gerrard
Yaya Toure
David Silva
Cesc Fabregas
