Greatest Ever Premier League Player Voted For - (Top Six Announced) The Sun ran a poll today in which Premier League football fans could vote for their greatest ever player in the competitions history. Heres how the top six ended up. In reverse order: 6) Eric CANTONA The mercurial Frenchman epitomised cool and composure for United, winning four Premier League titles in the 1990s, and earning the adulation of fans around the world. pic.twitter/pS9BpL79fP 5) Dennis BERGKAMP The non-flying Dutchman is one of the most technically gifted footballers to ever grace a pitch. He had no pace, but his vision and close-control enabled him to create chances for teammates at will. Bergkamp scored himself too - and is perhaps best known for the effort for his country against Argentina in the 1998 World Cup, and the legendary turn and finish against Newcastle in the Prem. pic.twitter/7P76fL9o9Y 4) CRISTIANO Ronaldo Ronaldo is quite rightly regarded as the best player in the world right now, but it was during his time in Manchester that he won his first Ballon Dor. The Portuguese sensation terrorised Premier League fullbacks for six seasons thanks to his pace and dribbling. pic.twitter/PRJAidqLoM 3) Ryan GIGGS The most decorated player in Premier League history, Giggs won 13 top flight titles, and only retired this summer just gone at the age of 40. In total, Giggs played 963 games for United, scoring 168 times. pic.twitter/jCMJCQ2Vki 2) Paul SCHOLES Scholes was arguably the most talented English footballer of his generation. The diminutive midfielder began his career as an attacking player, but gradually moved to the base of midfield and began controlling games with his mesmeric array of passing. pic.twitter/Om1jRLWPfD 1) Thierry HENRY No surprises here. Henry is probably the most naturally talented player ever to grace our top flight. He scored goals at will, and did so with style, composure and effortless cool. pic.twitter/77RoNl4WUN Courtesy: The Sun - Football (@TheSunFootball) October 10, 2014. No Chelsea and Liverpool Legends on the List. . . Fellow fans, WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE RESULT?
