Naldini too
GK Macca was hyping him as he was fed up with the forum hyping random players. It was tongue in cheek
Great thread idea. Here's my take, post 2004 (with the exception of Gary Mac).
For me, cult is where either:
Dudek
Flanagan
Kolo
Matip
Aurelio
Endo
Biscan
Gary Mac
Garcia
Crouch
Origi
Subs:
Kelleher
Nat Philips
Klavan
Dossena
Lucas
Momo Sissoko
Minamino
Bellamy
Neil Mellor
Sadly, this side is about as good as many of our sides from 2004 to 2016 were. Yikes. Some real memorable characters though. Brings a tear to my eye.
For me, cult is where either:
- Some very specific legendary performances linger in the memory far out of line with their overall quality/impact
- They have some ultra memorable behaviors, incidents, nicknames or memes
- Remembered fondly or with humour

I thought this belonged here: Endo cult hero
Him and Maxi were in consideration for my bench.
I'm going with.
Jerzy
Traore
Kolo
Xavier
Dossena
Sissoko
Biscan
Smicer
Gonzales
Camara
Origi
a wonderfully balanced team of utter madmen who for no apparent reason produced magic and made us believe before being shit again... forever.
Camara for that goal
Sissoko mainly for the eye thing.
Dossena for the lob over vanDer sar beating United 4-1 and I'm sure he produced another a few weeks later.
Kolo cos he took his wife's weight loss drugs and xavier cos he's a mad blonde hair and goatee looking guy.(i met him at the airport in 04 euros..where he was gonna sign for Spurs apparently)
Traore/biscan/smicer/jerzy for 05
Gonzales cos that goal we saw before he started then the winner in the champ league first game and was just absent after.
Divok cos other than his mental goals he didn't do much.

Goal line clearance in the final to get us number 5 means he's a hero forever.
I don't care that he did a pirouette v Burnley in the fa cup, I almost don't even think about how he had acres of space no one near him and still manged to score a worldy own goal.
Sorry but there's absolutely no way Xavier or Gonzalez could ever be described as cult heroes. Apply yourself next time.
I don't think anyone has listed Milner? Is this because he's seen as being more than cult in terms of his impact?
You don't think Xavier is abel to achieve cult status?
He's just a full blown hero, mate... A fucking legend.
I like this post.
That's what I think, too.
I posted my XI in a friends' chat and they queried about Milner. I feel he's an actual legend.
In fairness, Matip is too. But Matip also has the zany memes to make him a cult player too.
Except that you didn't!
Fuck banana!
