When you’re watching the Premier League, which footballer do you identify with the most? In life, are you a hard-nosed John Terry, a metrosexual David Bentley, a wear-your-heart-on-your-sleeve Steven Gerrard, or perhaps a John Carew who has a penchant for lap dances?
As a child, I identified with Kenny Dalglish when he played at Liverpool. One, I was pretty deadly in front of goal when playing at my local playground. Two, whenever I ran, I always got really red in the face as King Kenny did. And three, he had a similar haircut to mine at that time.
Of course, Dalglish never played in the Premier League, but if I had to pick one that I identify with the most, it would have to be Gareth Bale. He’s Welsh, like I am. He plays on the left wing, which is the position I played at during high school. He always tries hard and has a lot of potential as well as pace.

I'd like to think Gael Clichy. He does the job effectively always with 100% but doesn't care about the credit.
Based on actual football skill, looks and touch then I'm Dirk Kuyt.

I'd probably say Jamie O'Hara. I generally play left wing but spend a lot of time at RW and both outside backs. Not really flashy, just get by with speed, quick cuts and quick diagonal balls.
I think I was a bit more of a bruiser in the back than O'hara is though ; )

Julian Dicks. I am a bit of a nutter.

I reckon i’m like Dirk Kuyt and Fabio Aurielio mixed into one. I do all the hard work off Kuyt and I just get my head down and get on with my job. But I play left back so I have some off the quiality off Aurielio and I have an absolutly quality free kick.
