Duncan Ferguson has to be one of the only players in PL history where you’d prefer him to score because that could take some of his anger and viciousness away. Like you wouldn’t like to be 1-0 down vs Everton but an angry Duncan Ferguson could end your career on or off the pitch. You could play brilliantly against him and be dominant in the game but as soon as you went off the pitch, he’d try to knock your head off your shoulders.

There's a distinction between 'Hard' and 'Dirty'. Costa ain't hard, just dirty. Hard men can take it as well as dish it out. You never see a real hard man play act. They even try to hide it when they really are hurt. Like when Pearce broke his leg and walked off the pitch. No rolling on the ground, no crying, no stretcher....WALKED off the pitch....With a broken leg.

@cockoffgewgle4993

That's just a cultural difference. Costa had many scraps with Ramos and Pepe in Madrid derbies. Diving and playacting doesn't make you not hard, it just makes you smart. Defenders were scared of Costa. He was a big strong guy who was constantly throwing arms and elbows and squaring up to people. It's all relative to the times and what was allowed at that time. But there's also a reason there isn't many strikers on this list.

Interesting. I get the point ur trying to make but it's still ur personal perspective on the topic of ''hard man'' persona specifically pertaining to ur distinction between hard & dirty in ur comment. Im not saying ur wrong.....im saying it's arguable, for example lets take a player like the Portuguese centre-back Pepe...I consider Pepe a hard & dirty player. Ur distinction between "hard" & "dirty" implies that a hard man type player has to have virtue and not resort to dirty antics on the field, which I respectfully disagree with.

Alan is right. Back in the day, first tackle was the most important. That was the one that set the tone and got you inside the head of your opponent. Different game now.

Makes it even more impressive what Torres did to him. Don’t get me wrong, United dominated most times they played, but when Torres had his way, he made it clear Vidic wasn’t getting close to him. And then you have Messi but that’s mainly what Messi did to the entire United team. Every time Messi picked up the ball, Rio and Vidic both looked as if they’d made the biggest mistake of their lives, not closing him down on the edge of the box and when they tried to, Messi just put the ball in the net. Best team in England for years and Barcelona absolutely dominates them. If they didn’t play Tiki-Taka, Barcelona would’ve scored 7.

@@jerryoshea3116 You must like Norman Hunter as you mentioned him twice.

When Dicks arrived at Birmingham Mick Harford was there amongst other quite solid gents, must've been a fun side to face.

Shout out for Big mick harford

Lauren from Arsenal should have been there imo. That man looked capable of mass slaughter let alone a bad challenge

Duncan Ferguson is on an entirely different level to the other 9. Hardest player I. Football history along with Souness.

Anyone know whoes Micah is talking about.

I remember an old Coventry defender liam daish. Hard as nails

Everyone mist the hardest man in football that is Billy Whitehurst on and off the pitch !! ⚔️⚔️

micah burst on the scene lol

Shearer will always say his best partnership was Les Ferdinand but having served my time as a ST holder at St James's Dunk was the best.

How can you not have Graham souness and Terry Herlock in this list!!??!! they were tougher than all these guys.... Apart from Duncan Ferguson. And don't get me started on Costa.... most of us remember how he chickened out when he thought he could give it to Jordan Henderson.

I think it’s because Graeme and Terry stopped playing when the Premier League was introduced they would both definitely be in here if that wasn’t the case.

Big Duncan is considered by most of player from 2000's as the hardman. He let defenders scared on the pinch.

As an Evertonian I would rather have played against Duncan than Graeme Sharp. Duncan only ever finished an argument never started one. Sharp was hard as nails and had a real nasty streak. Tim Cahill was hard too. Only small constantly flattened ; never complained and gave as good as he got. Hard in a different way.

@Revelation once seen Sharp going for a header with Molby. Sharp elbowed him twice in one challenge. Molly was like Jelly and had to go off. Ferguson would have waited for Molby to foul him then get himself sent off for retaliation. As I said I'd have rather played against Ferguson than Sharp.
