Dave Bennett no contest
Wayne Routledge on loan, was one of the most skillful players I have seen in my time at Cardiff
Whitts for me. Amazing ball control.
NYC I would say Whitts was the best player and most technical player in my time watching the city but not the most skilful
Willie Anderson and Ian GibsonOriginally Posted by MOZZER2
It seems like this thread is more about dribbling and taking men on. I still think Whitts' first touch from long balls and ball control in tight situations was a sight to behold. His goal against Middlesbrough in the FA Cup was ridiculous.
I'd have Whitts at or near the top in any list of either the best technical or most skilful City players I've seen - Alan Curtis would be another one on both lists, while another ex Jack Jason Bowen had a lot of talent and, going back a long way and sticking the ex Jack theme, Barrie Jones was a skilful performer.
More recently, I always though Anthony Pilkington was a good technical player.
Although I wasn't a great fan of his while he was at Cardiff, Robin Friday would be up there as well and Adrian Alston had a taste for the unusual which revealed him as a skilled performer.
Kimbo was a very good technical player as well and Mats Daehli also deserves a mention as well.
Rambo would be in any list of skilful and/or technical players as well.
Danny Gabbidon and Mark Delaney were also good enough technically not to get found out in the Premier League.
was only a nipper when the likes of willie anderson graced ninian park so it's too far back in my memory to make a comparison
Billy Ronson was half decent too !
Ravel Morrison looked tidy in his brief stint here, wonder what how his career would have panned out if his head was screwed on
Andy Legg was more skillful than most.
Morrison was ok but a bit troubled. In my opinion we've never had anyone even close to Koumas in terms of skill but unfortunately his tenure was all too short. Tomlin is probably the nearest we've come to him. Players like McPhail and Whittingham were very good footballers but not Premier class and lacked that elusive piece of magic.

Dave Bennett was the name that sprung to mind before even opening this. Then thought Nigel Vaughan, but he's on your list too.
Chris Burke was very good at times.
Excluding this crop and Whitts..

Another vote for Jason Koumas. I own a share of him .....
All of the above plus Jay Bothroyd when he was on his game. Knew how to score pretty goals too.
Jay Bothroyd was immense on his day.
First time around only.
Jason Bowen
Bloody great skills
Nugmegged a player in front of the bob bank whilst doing an ayatollah
Hilarious
Gabbs.

There has been a lot of chat about brentford recently. I cannot hear the word “Brentford” without picturing Fowler’s chip. He was a class act on his day, at a time when players like that were a rare luxury
