Yes - Souness was in my opinion the best player I have ever seen pull on a Boro shirt. Absolutely fantastic in everything he did.Really stupid question.
Souness was an infinitely better player.
Light years.

Souness could not play the same role as Merson .Easily Graeme Souness. He could play a role like Merson did, but Merson couldn't play Souness' role.
And Merson just took the easy options through his career, he wasn't driven like Souness. Could Merson have cut it at Liverpool? No, he would have made an excuse and bailed.
Yes, that's me!Must be a shed load of 65 + year olds on this forum with fantastic memories.
I’m in my 40s and I’ve watched a lot of our Jack Charlton stuff on YouTube. The standard of football was terrible. I mean terrible. Souness was a good player but if you watch some boro games from 72-78 you’ll see him make plenty of bad passes and horrible tackles.
Nasty footballer.
Merson for me. Absolute quality.
Not Juninho but a close runner up.
I agree it is hard to compare across eras but my old fella compared Mannion (favourably) to Juninho and I think you have to assume the talent would span the years.Must be a shed load of 65 + year olds on this forum with fantastic memories.
