Most existing Safc player in your time

Phillips for me. Always felt a goal coming when he was on or close to the ball.

Exciting from a skills perspective would be either Sess or Steed. Both had fantastic centre of gravity and an insane ability to keep the ball when crowded by 2 or 3 defenders.
Choosing between the two is really difficult but it would have to be Sess for overall end product.
 

Through my period of being a MLF - Mickey Gray, Mickey Bridges, Steed, Julio, Sess, Gyan, Johnson, and now likes of Clarke, Roberts, Amad, were/are now players that I lift up a bit with an expectation and they are going to take someone on 'go on!' and do something when they get the ball. We have a few now, which is great.

Marco, Martin Smith, Allan Johnston.

First two because I was a young kid when they playing so I think everything seemed better then.
Johnston was when I first started drinking properly at the matches, to be fair the whole team was class then, excitement of going to every match knowing we played good football and expecting to win every game.
 
Hughes, Marco, Bridges, SKP, Johnson, currently, Clarke, Roberts and Diallo, honourable mention for Stewart as not the most exciting but what a work horse and outlet for our team

I have fond memories is Toby Hysen.

Not the most exciting obviously but just another name in the ring

I thought he looked like he was going to be brilliant but it was very fleeting because he didn’t seem to settle.Made 26 appearances which is more than I expected.
 
Probably Jim Baxter who was a hero to me as a kid.
Looking back though he probably had one good game in every 4 or 5 but what a game it would be!
After that Hughes and Tueart were very exciting players and in their pomp for us were terrific.
Modern day, Kevin Phillips he was such a livewire in the opponents last third you knew there was always a chance of something happening.
 
Very short loan spell but Peter Beagrie was an exciting signing and exciting to watch. Similarly Djibril Cisse was a bit of a “ wow” signing.
