Best Players to play in our league who never played for Rangers or Celtic?

[Corporal Jones]

Craig brewster, john Robertson, Dave Mckay, Willie Miller, Jim leighton, Alex Mcleish could all play a bit

Was about to say brewster, used to like watching him play. Always thought with better players around him he would have played at a higher level

 

[AlohaBear]

Didn't Gough play for them around that time

He did, as a right back. I think Jim McLean refused to sell him to us, so he ended up at Spurs.

 

[Edmond Dantes]

Was about to say brewster, used to like watching him play. Always thought with better players around him he would have played at a higher level

Mcleish almost signed him I'm sure

 

[Mr. Coal Fire Man]

So good l can't remeber his name, but who was the st mirren player in early to mid 2000's. I think he was a left footed welsh player, scored a few belters, I'm sure we were linked to him. Left after a season.

Don’t know if he has been mentioned, did St. Mirren not have a former top quality ex Spanish international.

 

[brand69]

Victor who played for St Mirren.
Steve Archibald
Gordon MacQueen

 

[govan86]

Nobody’s mentioned Eoin Jess yet

Or Michael Stewart! If we discount that they had to be at their peak then George Best for me.

 

[Jack Flash]

Martin Buchan
Willie Millar

 

[TWFWSOJB]

How long ago we going?

George Best surely?

he even floated in the snow

 

[Dolphin]

Chris Waddell

 

[Melanchthon]

I always thought Gerry McCabe was some player. Jot as good as the more common names, but far better than Clydebank

 

[Melanchthon]

Eric Black in his prime was a very good player

 

[Fingers1872]

István Kozma has to be one

Good shout, moved from Dunfermline to Liverpool

 

[Mr. Coal Fire Man]

Victor who played for St Mirren.
Steve Archibald
Gordon MacQueen

Victor that’s who I was thinking of.

Kenny Burns never played in Scotland

 

[bud_light]

Chris Waddle, Justin Fashanu, Peter Davenport all were expensive players in their day.

Davenport is a great answer
Decent player at Airdrie

 

[Grimsdale]

Zoltan Varga.

 

[Dot.D]

Only one of 4 World Cup winners to play in out league.

Gattuso, of course

 

[derek145]

Kenny Burns never played in Scotland

He was with Rangers as a youth

 

[bud_light]

He was with Rangers as a youth

Technically didn't play for us though and can't even go down the chef road like Gordon Ramsay

 

[Great white tadpole]

Sauzee, ravanelli, nemsadze

 

[paphosranger]

Frank Sauzee closely followed by Ravanelli.

This.

 

[The U.S. Male]

If you're talking foreign players then the wee guy who played for Kille a few years ago was good for a while - Cocard

 

[cooperman]

Always thought Ricardo Fuller was a cracking striker

 

[paphosranger]

Since all the best players have been mentioned I will throw out a few players who I always thought were good players.

Nemsadze
Sara
Caballero

All Dundee

Jose Quitongo
Juanjo

Hearts

Miovski
Severin

Aberdeen

John McGinn, Andy Robertson?

 

[Kris1872]

Lewis Ferguson

 

[Mr. Coal Fire Man]

Davenport is a great answer
Decent player at Airdrie

His legs had gone a bit, however you could see why he went for big money in his prime.

 

[paphosranger]

Takis Fysas hasn't been mentioned, Euro Champ winner and a quality player. Caballero and Sara decent for Dundee too. Ricardo Vaz Te another random shout.

 

[paphosranger]

Guillermo Amor, right I'm out.

 

[DD1872]

Hughie Gallagher.

 

[Dochart]

If we're talking about how they played when they were in Scotland (which rules out Best and Ravanelli), then it's Gordon Smith.

He won the league with Hibs, Hearts & Dundee (three times with Hibs), and played for all three in the European Cup.

 

[Trueblueal]

McGinn, Robertson, Ravanelli, Ketsbaia, Sauze, Speroni, Schmeichel, Best, Miller, McLeish, Ferguson, Skacel, Miovski, Quitongo

[paphosranger]

Juniniho?

 

[Donnyibrox]

Andy Ritchie

 

[DonDraper]

Fcuksake Tavernier

 

[bluetonic]

Aberdeen in the 80s had a number of great players.

Miller and McLeish, then a number of Dutch guys around the turn of the decade.

Hans Gillhaus springs to mind

 

[Corellian Pirate]

Ian St John

 

[Montyplums]

Not read whole thread yet but I always thought wee John Robertson would’ve been great for us

 

[bluebeak]

How long ago we going?

George Best surely?

We have a winner.

 

[MwgRFC88]

John McGinn, Andy Robertson?

Forgot about McGinn. Didn't think Robertson was a standout the time he was at Dundee United. But he's a rabid wank so wouldn't have mentioned him anyway!

 

[Davidsmith1]

Charbonnier.

Juniniho?

Charbonnier
Gattusso
Guivarch
Bonetti
Are the 4 who have a World Cup winners medal and have played in the top league in Scotland.

I knew the first three, Juninho won the world cup in 2002 though so there must be five.

 

[paphosranger]

McCoist was a sub a lot when Robbo was in his pomp, he would be behind Super Ally.

 

[Davidsmith1]

Forgot about Juninho
