Genuinely interested to hear peoples' thoughts. Only one choice for me but we'll see if we all think the same.

Donny, I don't think I could be much clearer; who is currently the greatest (i.e. best) British (i.e. born within Great Brtain) player?

Bale 3
Gerrard 2
Giggs 1

Giggs and Bale are the only world class homegrown players
that have graced the Premier Lge since it started (unless Roy Keane gets a pass for being Irish)

Are people genuinely saying that at the moment in time, Gerrard is a better player than Bale?

By:

When: 19 Mar 14 23:35
Of course I've made up my mind - I'm not seeking other opinions to help me decide. Just genuinely interested in whether a fairly large sample of football followers feel the same, or have differing views

Giggs is laughably over-rated, maybe in the top twenty.
By:

I am happy with the Gerrard fan club saying he is the greatest.  My bet is on Italy in the World Cup.
Gerrard is massively over-rated imo.  Please pick him, and put him in the team.

I genuinely thought (even in this madhouse) that the thread would go 20-30 serious posts before someone said someone other than Bale. Yet we've had Gerrard, Rooney and Giggs offered; even at this early stage.

how can bale be greater than giggs ?

he is a better player because giggs is past his prime

he is currently the best british footballer by ratings

Bale is of course a good player but would you really describe him as the best player of his current comtemporaries? Based on what? ... He had 5-6 good months last season for Spurs and almost single-handedly carried them into the CL. He's now playing in one of the world's top teams and has scored and assisted a few goals but probably wouldn't be a familiar name to most people outside Spain or the UK.

Really wouldn't have him in a list of the Top 25 players in the world at this moment but when he's been an inspirational captain for his club and country and played consistently at the top level for a few years then maybe he wold be worth consideration.

Seems to be all the left sided players Giggs , Bale and even Joe Cole
By:

When: 19 Mar 14 23:54
Some people seem to be struggling with the question. It is: who is the greatest current British footballer NOT who is the greatest British footballer playing currently?

Hope this helps.

If you managed a team tonight and had a choice of any British player; whom would you pick?

Jeez
