I didn't think Julian ever did play for England - no-one was prepared to take the risk. He was awesome. Mental, but awesome.

Kieran Richardson. How an Man Utd reserve player keeps getting picked I will never know.

And you'll be saying the same about Stewart "Steve McClaren's Love Child" Downing soon too....

he wasn't awesome at all.

he was a playground footballer. He used to follow the ball around wanting to kill people......

He was awesome. How many times he bailed West ham out single-handedly I can't remember. He had a left foot like a piledriver, a good right foot, was like an ox in the tackle, won practically all headers despite being a short-arse, always got forward, never ever gave up and scored a shedload of goals - this as a left-back. He did like to clatter people, though - for some reason he really took exception to Perry Groves.

Calton Palmer
Nicky Butt
David James
Emile Heskey
Ian Walker

But most of all Phil Neville for giving clear penalties away time after time (something he also did for untied before we got rid)
