I'd add De Gea and Rooney (at his peak) to that as well.

Some odd definitions of world class in this thread!  If I'm being honest, I don't think Watford have ever had any.

John Barnes, at a squeeze.
Luther Missit Blisset at a canter. He went to Italy, back when British players didn't go to Italy. Tore their league apart I believe

Was what I was gonna post. Know King could have been anything but cant have him for the career he did have, and sheringham was never world class.

Premier league top scorer?

King is in Thierry Henry's all time opposing eleven. When fit, in his prime, an elite level centre half.

Yeah and woodgate was world class for the toon the 5 times he played.

Sir Les scored more prem goals than sheringham, as did andy cole. No way either were world class.

I'd say that for a player to be considered World Class they have to be at least a certainty to make the subs bench of a World X1 team, so obv quite a few named itt don't fit that criteria.

It's a shame that Sir Alex doesn't see fit to give credit to players he's falling out with that obv do fall into this category, never knew him and Schmeichel had  fallen out ? He would surely be a lock for the whole football world, definite Goat contender for GKs so that's nonsense.

Of the four he did name is Ryan Giggs World Class ? By my above definition that is. He's obv a great player, and what he's achieved is insane, but I'm not sure he would ever have made the team, if you think yes then when would he have got on the bench of a World X1, no way he's ever starting that's for sure. The other three are for me as well as him with the silly name above and Roy Keane also.

King had a superb career

Broderline world class

Considering he didn't train at all for the last 6 seasons it was An amazing career
