We've had some cracking players play for us over the years!
I can remember when I first starting going regularly, I was about 7, and Peter Beardsley used to run the show. He used to skin everyone before banging one in, or if he wasn't doing that he would be orchestrating some kind of attacking move. A quality player!
I certainly wouldn't have him back with open arms, but Nick Barmby was also a very good player on his day, and I guess his style was somewhat similar to Beardsley's. I love that type of player! Teddy Sheringham stylee. It would be ace if Barkley becomes one of those players, but it's yet to be seen, IMO.
