Like you all
Way to many to list in so much as I like so many defenders, Maddren, Craggs Mogga, Boam,Ugo, Southgate, Queudrue, Bates. Morrison Falconer, Souness was fantastic but he left on bad terms. and also see Yakubu.

However I have liked, all but 1 Boro player in my 56 years of watching the Boro.

How do you make a list like that and fail to mention my favourite all time Boro player!?! - George Boateng

 

[Tryasize10]

Pollock

 

[adammarc_98]

Franck Queudrue.

The fact he ommited Mogga amazes me. He should be in there for his Villa flying header alone.

 

[naively_optimistic]

For Boro..... Another one for Terry Cochrane

From the rest .... John Robertson thought he was brilliant in that Forest side of the late 70s or perhaps it was because I was the dumpy kid on the wing!!!

 

[NorthStand95]

This. With a bit of Barmby thrown in

John Hendrie was my first "favourite player"

But Juninho was the first player I adored

 

[GrangetownGrowler]

John Barnes

 

[Brick_Tamland]

Craig Hignett, I think.

 

[Wistow_Red]

Another for Super Colin Cooper

 

[Ash88]

Ravanelli... nothing to do with his footballing ability... because he put his shirt over his head when he scored which I thought was cool.

 

[Keelo]

First player I saw score for Boro as a wide eyed kid...........Alan Peacock..I'd never seen anyone jump so high

 

[NZBoro1]

John Hickton, honourable mention to Tony Mcandrew

 

[1962onwards]

Alan Peacock ( gutted when he went to Leeds) then Jim Irvine
