Was somewhat surprised after running a search that there doesn't seem to be a thread on this topic, so thought I'd throw the question out there.
But, if you had to choose one (just one) player to nominate as being your favourite of all time, who would it be?
Bit of a tough call for me, am a bit spoilt for choice considering I grew up watching an Arsenal Team, made up by a group of players who many can now be considered all-time club greats. Despite Thierry Henry pushing hard for top spot, I think my favourite is without question Robert Pires. There was something about him that I always really liked, and I'd say between 2002-2004 there was probably no better player in his position in the entire world. Him being substituted off in the Champions League final is probably one of my worst sporting memories, even worse than losing the match itself.
Anyway...the floor is open....
Edit: Will always love him for this
