Players who never gave less than 100% to the cause.

[The Cowboy]

The Straq. Argue all you want about how good/bad he was, but I don't think he left a single calorie unspent after each game.

Pienaar always put a solid shift in and never hid from the ball, even when he wasn't having his best of games.

He's right up there for me. His effort was infectious.

 

[Aberblue]

I think all of today's team can safely be excluded from this thread.

Sadly, yes.

 

[hktoffee]

Tim Cahill.

 

[big nev lookalike]

Mick Lyons and Andy King

 

[Gwlacticos]

Marcus Bent.

Overcame his limitations by putting in loads of effort in a tough solo role up top on his own.

Was rewarded by being ditched for everybodies favourite waster James Beattie who could never ever in a million years perform the same job in that role.

No way. I remember spurs away, he just couldn't be arsed. I think we lost 2-0. He left not long after, and we were near bottom of league and as we left the ground, some spurs fan shouted, 'bout time you caaaants went down'. Put me off the spurs that.

...a lot of the players who simply gave 100% were not very good to put it politely, I'm thinking of Mick Lyons and Denis Straquelesi.

Mick Lyons was better than the Stracq @Eggs!
Ran his heart out played all over the park for us always remember that diving header v Leeds at home!

Graeme Sharp,Joe Royle and Andy Gray always gave 100% but Mick Lyons always gave a little bit extra from somewhere.
