Among the many negatives, there have been a few positives over the years - in the Ashley era, but not because of anything Ashley did to deserve it...

Who has been your favourite player of the past 14-ish years? Greatness can be defined in many ways, eg. leadership, technical ability, goals, dedication, haircut, etc.

For me, it's got to be Yohan Cabaye, but there are quite a few to choose from when looking back.

Coloccini was also in my mind.
