Difficult to come to conclusions on this.

Was lucky enough to be able to watch Glenn Hordle, Chris Waddle, Maradona and Patrick Vieira. Peter Wier was very skillfully too.

As far as best players go then we would have to add Willie Miller, Kenny Dalglish and Gordon Strachan.

That said there have been a big number of players who were really good.

Eoin Jess.

Maradona (Scotland v Argentina at Hampden 1979). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxFuYut827g

Aye, that was the game I seen Maradona in the flesh.
Scorcher o' a day.

He was just a young loon wasn’t he.

I was playing in some sort of football tournament that day ( scorcher right enough) and I remember folk raving about his performance.

It's a bit of a quandary - my favourite ever Dons player seen in the flesh is Eoin Jess, but when you say 'skilful' I think of 'flair' and I'd maybe have to say Zero.

Jess would win if the topic was 'classiest' with the way he could just stand folk up and ghost past with no dramas and nestle the ball top corner - possibly only Niall McGinn has come close to that for us since.

Elsewhere - Ronaldinho for Barca. Sheer unadulterated joy - both from him and for the people lucky enough to be watching.

1. For the dons - probably Jess
2. Anyone else - I'm not going to say Laudrup or Gascoigne I couldn't bring myself to give credit to anything they did against us. I'm plumping for the scourge of the dons Andy Ritchie of Morton
