Premiership Top 5

[[ASSE]Hinchy]

I am right,

His favourite scenario is the final game of the 1998 season where Adams collected a pass from Bould to score the league title winning goal against Everton.

So ner

It was Everton you beat on the last day of the 2002 season, but it was a 4-3 scoreline. Bergkahmp, Henry (2) and Jeffers with the goals.

Haha

Yeah you are right, I was getting confused about the match, but Adams was still the captain in 2002 In fact I think he might be the only player to have captained one team to league titles in 3 different decades.

 

[JAzz]

Not in any order and I'm sorry but I can't do a top 5

Dennis Bergkamp
Thierry Henry
Tony Adams
Roy Keane
Peter Schmeichel
Eric Cantona
Alan Shearer
David Seaman

Reason for incl Henry is for 4 seasons in a row he has scored over 20 goals in a season (incl one 30 goal season) and he must be near the top of the all time PL assists league table as well so those are phenominal stats. Also has been around since summer of 1999 so almost 6 years.

Steve bould through ball, tony adams left-foot halfvolley from 30 yards - BAM, 4-0 to celebrate winning the title.

It was 40 yards, not 30

Nope, Adams was captain when Arsenal won the league in 2002

Steve bould through ball, tony adams left-foot halfvolley from 30 yards - BAM, 4-0 to celebrate winning the title.

I think most people are going to strugle to contain the list to just 5.
Sol like memphisto I will expand to 10

In no order:

Keane
Cantona
Schmiechel
Giggs
Bergkamp
Zola
Seaman
Adams
Le Tissier

In a few years, I may swap Henry for Beckham.

 

[GBB]

Sir Les.

Schmeichel.

Les Ferdinand ahead or Alan Shearer, are you clinically insane?

 

[BrenOS]

It was 40 yards, not 30

David Batty

I knew you'd have him in. A lot of better players leap to mind.

 

[Big Kev]

Getting on towards Nayim distance there mate

Not funny, even after all these years, it's still not funny, ruined the whole trip as well.

I knew you'd have him in. A lot of better players leap to mind.

I was pretty certain he'd get a mention as well.

 

[atpbx]

Les Ferdinand ahead or Alan Shearer, are you clinically insane?

No i havent put them in any particular order, hence why i have not used any numbers.

[Gilly]

I'll ban him. If I can ban you at the same time

Hey, we all have to make sacrifices now and again An eye for an eye as they say.

 

[JAzz]

Ban me? This place would be dead without me, I'm the heartbeat of this forum Just ban him along with any manc of your chosing, that will even it out. You know it makes sense
