Your Favourite Non-Charlton Players

I was interested to read Exiled Addick's comment on toaday's post-match thread that, "Phillips is one of my favourite non-Charlton players, despite the fact he normally scores against us. He's an absolute class act", because I feel exactly the same. If I'm honest though, any of that Sunderland team from that day are amongst my favourites. That was such a hard fought match, and that was part of what made it such a joy (once we'd won). Top of my list though is Michael Gray, can't think why ;-)

Who are your favourite non-Charlton players, and why?

    Gary Speed

    had maximum respect from his country and every manager, player and fan from every club he played for. i thought this before he died as well.
  • Nicklas Bendtner, one of the nicest player's i have met that currently play and really like his slightly jokey over confidence in himself.
  • Christian Eriksen.

    No idea why just think he's quality and I'm always surprised he's never picked up by one of the European big boys
  • Suarez, best player I've ever watched in British football.
  • Eric " Kung Fu " Cantona
  • Kevin Philipps for me as well
  • Eric " Kung Fu " Cantona

    That one's worthy of a photo :-)

  • Xabi Alonso

    Liverpool should never have let him go. Awesome player, seems like a model pro and loves what he does.

    Mikel Alonso

    That La Liga 2 pesata (2 bob?) Spanish club should never have let him go.

    ;o)
  • Cantona, Gascoigne, Barnes and Pearce.
  • Migel Alonso

    Charlton should never have let him go. Awesome player, seems like a model pro and loves what he does.

    Fixed. LOL

    Le Tiss, Zidane and Dennis Bergkamp purely because they were genius footballers who never relied on being athletes with regards to Pace, Power and Stamina.
  • Bergkamp - what a player he was. Or Zola.
  • Matt Le Tiss and Dennis Bergkamp.

    I will add Le Tiss to mine too.
  • Henry is another for me, best player i have ever personally seen play against Charlton.

    Best cardigan, you mean?

  • Seriously, Thierry Henry at his peak was unplayable at times. Remember that cheeky backheel goal against us, unbelievable.

    Agreed sometimes you thought the rest of the Arsenal team could leave the pitch and he would still beat us, amazing talent.

    OK, will add him too!

    I never knew Arthur from Eastenders, Boycey from Only Fools, Elton John and Salman Rushdie were Palace fans.
  • Leighton Baines, love how he plays, great passes/crosser/free kick taker.
    Frank Lampard, model pro and scores some properly good goals.
    Kevin Phlips- Top pro and seems like a really nice guy.
    Leon Osman and Tony Hibbert, always get on with it, committed and loyal. Done a great job for Everton under Moyes
  • Loved everything about Henry. He was fantastically talented, looked like a thoroughbred race horse when he got fully into his stride, and seemed to have a sense of humor to go with the gallic swagger. Nice guy I think.

    Le Tissier was the other. One club man, capable of absolute brilliance and maintained a healthy appetite for pastries throughout his career. If could have been a footballer, I'd have been Charlton's version Le Tiss.
  • I know he played for the other lot, but Gareth Southgate always seemed like a model pro in the Chris Powell mode.
