I like this video of old and fat maradona. Just living to nutmeg people.
I think for some people the answer will be the same. But I like your contributionOther than Steer's contribution, this appears to have turned into a "who do you think is the best non-Boro player" thread, whereas the question was "who is your favourite non-Boro player" so I'll go with what was requested and say Robin Friday, with an honorable mention for Charlie Wright (the mad Charlton keeper) and Steve Bull
Not for me. We can play silky one touch football for 90 minutes with skills galore on display. But if we then lose to a 91st minute stinker it was all for nothing. I can't relax until we are well ahead. A two goal lead in particular terrifies me. It can disappear in the blink of an eye.I would agree, sometimes you walk away from a game and its a little passage of play or the cheek to do something that made it worth going.
Great shout for batigoalBatistuta was an iconic force of nature back in the days of Gazetta football.
He wasn’t the best player, but he was my favourite. The hair, the power, the purple Nintendo shirt, the absolute belters

My only memory of Ronaldo as an opposition player is him cheating us and "winning" a penalty. Hated him ever since and no matter what he's achieved since, I'd never rank him in a top 10 of anything other than cheating barstewards.I don't think it has.
"Best" for most people I imagine would be (if not Messi) Ronaldo, the real Ronaldo, Pele, Maradona or maybe George Best or Zidane at a push.
Loads of other names mentioned who I'd be surprised if people thought were the best (although most are still exceptional). So can only be picking them because they're their favourite surely?
