Gustavo Poyet No 8

Gus is quite simply outstanding and has figured in the Carling Opta Team Of The Season, yet has spent the majority of the season out injured, that just shows you how highly rated he is, lethal in the air and probably the best attacking midfielder in the country, just ask Alex Fergusson who has made a few bids for him already, loves to play up to the crowd, known by his former team mates at Real Zaragoza as "The Radio" as he never stops talking, the name has stuck at Chelsea too, he is completly "Radio Rental" in our opinion
we just love his Spanish accented version of
"Who the F--K are Man Utd

"There's only one Poyet"
