    Thomas Rogne and Scott Brown.

    I think Rogne is the best centre-half we've got when he's fit and I think Broony is under-appreciated. I also love Broony's no nonsense attitude on the pitch.

    Really liked Stephen McManus and Paul Caddis when they were here. Both under rated. Also was really disappointed to see Mark Burchill leave at the time.

    Of the current squad, I don't really have any surprising soft spots. My favourite players are Mulgrew and Wanyama, and they are pretty well liked.

    Out of the current squad I've always had a soft spot for Rogne and feel he is too often an unsung hero.

    He's got a Tattoo of the clubs crest I believe. Maybe someone else can confirm this?

    Big sammy for me, never hides even when things are not going well for him and the fans are on his back, still tries his best.

    Forster and Sammy, both partly because fans get on their backs. I think Forster has the potential to be great but I also think he rarely lets us down and is a solid keeper. Sammy I like as a player, could feasibly be the best player in the league with a bit of consistency. Nothing infuriated me more than the difference in reaction between him losing the ball and McCourt losing the ball, thankfully he has been playing really well recently. I also defend him against every pathetic criticism of him that mentions his hair, because obviously it's completely irrelevant but some people seem stuck on this idea of him "playing with his hair."

    Sammy, Cha, Paddy and Loovens.

    Sammy because he has the ability and it annoys me he isn't using it to his potential.

    Cha because he could be amazing with his pace.

    Paddy because he is the Derry Pele and should be consistent enough to be a first team regular.

    Loovens because he looks great in some games.

    Anybody that the fans tend to criticise

    I want them to do well and prove the doubters wrong. At the same time it helps the time if they play well obviously
