Regardless of ability, who's your favourite player, past and/or present?

[Great Boos Up]

Dunno why, just always had a soft spot for Paul Kitson and I couldn't even hate him when he went to Derby! So that must be true love.

[PhillippaT]

My only answer to this thread is that I don't think it's fair to only choose one player

(I have a Kasey Keller shirt, though, so...)

[thebluefox]

Wallington

alan young

ooh tommy wright

[UpTheLeagueFox]

Steve Walsh...longevity, heart, spirit, warrior

 

Jamie Vardy is my current favourite but may always play second fiddle to Walshy long term

 

Most skilful... Mahrez and then Izzet

[abdul_fox]

lloyd dyer for me... who remembers his performance against Ipswich when we won 6-0 several years back ? He was unplayable !!

[spacemunky]

Before he was a legend for you lads, Kasper single handedly got Notts County out of League Two. For that one season he will always be remembered. I think we've conceded more goals already this season than we did in that entire 09-10 season  

 

So, he gets my vote.

Was he brilliant that year?

Well those were the days before such a thing as iFollow, so I can only go by what I'd heard and read. From that I'd say he was yes. 

 

Unfortunately being how good and young he was, there was no doubt he'd be moving on to a bigger club.

[foxy boxing]

Steve Walsh is an obvious favourite as it was amazing when he switched from being a defender to an attacker was just brilliant and is such a cult hero. a personal favourite of mine was Tommy Wright and i loved watching him play.

[DANGEROUS TIGER]

1 - Banks

2- Gibson

So many others close together.

Has to be Steve Walsh, great servant to the club and in my legends top five.

 

Met him once not particularly friendly..

Totally arrogant , Steve Walsh not you 

[Guest]

When you've supported the club for 50 years this type of question is impossible. I think you have a new favourite every few years. Banks, Whitworth, Wortho, Wally, May, Leet, Hamill, Young and the list just goes on and on.

 

Vardy has to high on the all-time favourite list for anyone though. Doesn't he?

 

Not forgetting Hamza of course.

[Koke]

Current favourite: Christian Fuchs 

 

All time favourite: Christian Fuchs

[sacreblueits442]

......Andy King, first time I saw him he scored a screamer at the Family End, must have been about 40 yards. He just put his hand up, no over the top celebrations, I just thought that was so cool.

  Although not an LCFC player but the one player that I thought, that is how I wanted to play the game and the person I would like to be was Paul Reaney (Leeds United). Great defender and superb crosser of the ball on the run from Full back .With him it was all about the team, never about him!!!!

[Julian Joachim Jr Shabadoo]

Muzzy

That’s a shit team. Bin. 

[SkidsFox]

Although it's going back a bit, I'm always a little surprised that Eddie Kelly doesn't get nominated, and the Youngs, Linekers and Lynexes do (accept they were all great players to watch).

In modern times I think Mahrez has been the most skillful player we've had, but because of his poor off-field antics, going to plump for Vardy.  A great player, and he snubbed the Arsenal too!

I love that you slipped Norman Leet in there!!

[woollett the bullet]

For some reason I've always been drawn towards a less obvious choice . Not necessarily one of our flair player's but someone who's made the best of what they've got and always given everything.Too numerous to mention unfortunately but

Woollett , Lochead , Walsh ,Young , Dickov who've all epitomised our spirit over the years. Soft spot for Frank Sinclair too.

Current favourite is obviously JV , just got everything at the moment.

[Guest Electric Yetis]

[JamesWelshFox]

Gerry Daly - we only had him briefly on loan but guy was class, he made it look effortless, always had time on the ball and made the players round him look better. Very underrated.

 

Mark Wallington - fantastic keeper, just unlucky to have been around when England had a number of top keepers.

 

Robbie Savage - never stopped running, and never seen anyone kick so many talented players out of a game !!!!!!!!

 

Mal Griffiths - old fashioned wing wizard and scored in the '49 Cup Final

 

Shinji - just for the smile

[Bert]

Muzzy will always be my hero. Vardy has overtook him as my favourite player to play for us though. Mahrez without doubt the best though. If that makes any kind of sense.
