Dennis Irwin is the second best after Ashley Cole. Honestly 1v1 only Ronaldinho managed to beat Ashley Cole, even C.Ronaldo as a winger couldn't beat him.

Ashley Cole as best in the world is a perfect example of us English being obsessed with pl we forget the real greats. Like for me, Gerrard was one of my favourite growing up as a Liverpool fan but I still remember the likes of zidane who was even better, but we talk of it as Gerrard, keane, Scholes etc

Correction Daren Bent. Bruce Grobbellaar was the first african born player to play in England, for liverpool, 1981. Born in Durban, South Africa and raised in Zimbabwe

CORRECTION: Darrent Bent is correct. Peter Ndlovu was the first African born player to play in the PREMIER LEAGUE. If we are talking about English football overall, then Bruce Grobbelaar is also wrong because there were other African players in English football before him, like Danie Le Roux, and Derek Smethurst.

Since Ryan Giggs's off-the-pitch matters, everyone just ignores him now. He's still not been inducted into the Premier League Hall of Fame. I get that he's quite clearly not a very nice person and many people will say that there have even been more gifted players, but he still has 13 Premier League titles and has the third most appearances in the competition, all with one club. He's also scored over 100 goals in the competition.
