    McGeady naturally best without even trying.

    Larsson, Lubo, Naka could tell had skill but worked their arses off to hone it more.

    Proves nurture normally more important than nature.

    Henrik. Finishing, crossing, passing, movement. Scored goals from angles you wouldn't even fathom. Genius.

    So, you think McGeady just woke up one day as a kid and was able to just do things without "even trying" whereas Lubo, Larsson and Naka all had to work on it?

    My * lad, you spout some amount of absolute *...

    McCourt is a great shout, Commons not so much.

    Van Dijk and Rogic are up there as well.

    Naka. Lubo /Di Casio were a bit before my time.

    Rogic, Mcourt and Mcgeady get special mentions as well

    I literally had one of those delayed reaction belly laughs. I just looked at it nonplussed, started to move on and then 10 seconds later burst into uncontrollable laughter when the penny dropped. :56:

    I don't think McGregor should be up there either TBH (the question is how naturally gifted they are), but his inclusion is not utterly ridiculous like Commons.

    It is, which is why a journeyman like Darren Jackson had a more successful Celtic career than the extremely gifted Paddy McCourt. However the very best players (like basically everyone in your post) have both in spades.
