Favourite Palace Player of all time: Jules - true legend of the club!
Palace Player I dislike: Adebayor - useless lump who we paid a fortune to do almost nothing. He then moaned coming here was a mistake which was such a knobbish thing to say! (Special mention to John Oster too..)
Palace Player that grew on me: Alan Lee - Could be absolutely awful at times but scored some huge goals when we were in admin.
Most overrated Palace Player: Kuqi!
Most underrated Palace Player: Kouyate seems to go under the radar an awful lot. Also is it me or was Marco Reich under appreciated??
The G.O.A.T.: It's got to be Wilf hasn't it?!

I will grovel for forgiveness should I be wrong but was his first goal vs Coventry? A late winner?

I have a distinct memory of putting the game on the radio after coming home late, with only a few mins to go, and hearing the commentator gushing about a late goal from a Marci Reich! I hung my head in despair having never heard of him, let alone that we'd signed him and indeed won the match!

I think I also recall he had a solitary German Cap, which for me, at the time, made him a God amongst men in our team!

Bot sure he was underrated, I certainly thought he was very good but may be wrong.

 


Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

He scored the winner against Liverpool in the League Cup and we had a bit of a run. That's probably his most famous moment for us.

Palace Player that grew on me: Been a few, but, dare I say it, has to be AJ as wasn't convinced when he first joined at all.

...

Good shout this one Kaos mate, he was even known as ‘fast but useless’ in his early days, little did we know.

Saw this trending on twitter, although it was used for 'Rappers', 'NBA/NFL/MLB players' etc and thought it ridiculous not one yank had thought to do one for Palace Players!

Give it a go if you've got a spare few mins today, bit of fun and would of course be interested to see. Going to once more expose my relative youth here, but I'll give it a go for now and may come back with a revised version that I've given more than 5 mins to...


Favourite Palace Player of all time: Aki Riihilahti

Palace Player I dislike: Tom Soares, always thought he was 5H!T!!

Palace Player that grew on me: Neil Danns (Had never herd of him previously)

Most overrated Palace Player: I fear it may be AWB but will go with Tom Soares again or very possibly John Bostock (who?... exactly)

Most underrated Palace Player: Joonas Kolkka, thought he was superb! Wish he'd stayed longer

The G.O.A.T.: Has to be Wilf, surely? He's long dethroned AJ for me (in my lifetime).

Fav player: I had a soft spot for Andy Linighan but it's got to be Freedman.

Disliked: Won't say his name, striker, loaned from city by Pardew.. expensive loser.

Grew on me: Speroni

Overrated: Has to be AWB, that price tag was not justified, seemed a nice guy though.

Underrated: Kouyate - immense player.

GOAT: I think Martyn was a champion all rounder...

 


This was once a quality forum....

I have to say, I know he was a f*** up waiting to happen, but loved big Claude Davis, he was a real beast and such a massive presence at the back. Sitting behind the goal I could always see the fear in whoever he was marking at corners
