    I'd find it hard to pick between two. Richard Rufus because, well, he's Richard Rufus and, following my heart, Carl Leaburn. He wasn't the best but I adored the bloke.

    Must have missed this first time around!
    Most of my Charlton heroes have been strikers and at one time or another I have idolised Eddie Firmani, Cliff Holton, Ray Treacy, Arthur Horsfield, Flash Flanagan, Alan Simonsen, Paul Walsh, Jim Melrose... you get the picture.
    But the question is who is your favourite and that will always be Killer for me.

    Edit: Actually if I engaged my brain I'd have seen that the thread title wasn't restricted to Charlton players, in which case I'll go with George Best. Had the pleasure of seeing him several times in his prime.

    Rivelinho, Alan Gilzean and Rufus. Can't pick between them.

    Mark Kinsella really stands out for me, best captain the club have had in my lifetime.

    In terms of non-charlton it has to be Hristo Stoichkov. Great goal scorer, great goal maker and all round mentalist!

    For being Charlton through and through, Peacock, Brown and... Brian Kinsey.

    And Chrissy Powell for the tunnel jump.
  • Killer or Scotty P, honourable mentions for Rufus and SCP!

  • Paddy Powell - I do like a classy winger and he provided the ammunition for the Hales and Flanagan show

    Always loved big Carl as well, bless him.

    Scott Parker for me though, brilliant player in a brilliant team and, even in spite of where he is now, still convinced we saw the very best of him.

    Not saying they were all the best but I loved them!

    Jonatan Johansson (hence the 21 in the name)
    Matt Holland
    Claus Jensen
    Richard Rufus
    Paolo Di Canio
    Chris Powell

    Peter Shaw - Les Berry

    Only messing!

    Hales & Flanagan (Great punch up between them both v Maidstone Utd)
  • (since 1992) between Mark Kinsella, Richard Rufus and Garry Nelson - the nicest man in football
  • Super Clive.
  • Rob Lee was always my favourite growing up. I was gutted when we flogged him to Newcastle, but obviously I understood why it had to happen. After Rob Lee went, John Robinson filled his shoes for me. Not as good a player as Rob Lee obviously, but loved him all the same.
  • Best player at CAFC Paul Walsh. Favourite. Len Glover( yes I am that old)
    Most embarrassing display, the time Christophe du point was on the pitch.
    Heroes Derek Hales, Robert Lee, Mark Fish.

    Chrissy Powell!!

    or Kinsella

    or Rufus

    or Mendonca

    f##k i can't decide....

    Add Jacko and Yann
    Maybe Garry Nelson as well.
  • Over the years have seen all of the above - what a list of fabulous players, that have given us so much pleasure. None though in my memory stands out more than Stuart Leary ; his skill on the ball , his reading of the game, and above all his style. The late John Hewie another great player from the distant past described Leary as being 'The Master'

    I was hoping Connor McAleny would earn this title but that's out the window now
