    Were they in the premier league? Or the old League 1?

    Voted.

    For what it's worth I went MLT, Bergkamp, Cantona, Adams, Vieira and Keane.

    I am older than 12 :emoticon-0102-bigsm :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    Voted. I am older than 12 but went with players I actually saw lots of growing up.

    Bergkamp
    Ashley Cole
    Campbell
    Lampard
    Vidic
    Vieira

    Be interesting if this is a season on season thing. Sounds like it will be 6 getting inducted this year with another vote next year with probably the ones who didn't get in this year plus another 6

    I've voted for:

    MLT
    Vieira
    Schmeichel
    Bergkamp
    Lampard (It was either him or Gerrard, went with Lampard due to amount of trophies won)
    Adams

    Of those on the list, Vieira and Bergkamp are surely slam dunks to get in. Both fantastic players.

    Already Henry is in it though. Think 3 players from the same team and era is a bit much.

    Pretty much same as me, though I went Gerrard over Lampard.

    They should have separated vote into positions instead of lumping them all together. It’s just gonna be attacking players mainly.

    I`ve no idea how many games I`ve been to in my lifetime, but Bergkamp scored the best goal I`ve ever seen live - the one at StJames where he flicked the ball round one side of Dabizas, ran round the other side of him, then rolled it into the net.

    But that Arsenal side was probably the greatest PL side we've ever seen.

    Understandable, Lampard just edged it for me but very close call.

    Is there a criteria to be on the list of nominees?

    I know in the NFL for example the player has to have been retired for 5 years I think

    Have seen that goal a hundred times on TV and still can’t get my head around it.

    Yeah, they need to be retired for a set number of years here too.

    Absolutely agree. But three is still a bit much.

    I also think the 90s Man Utd team need more recognition than just Schmeichel.

    I’d put Keane before Vieira regardless. Just my opinion though. All phenomenal players.

    Would explain why there are no Man City players.

    Yes, I'm not sure Shaun Goater or Craig Bellamy are HOF material. <laugh>

    Makes sense, was thinking it was odd Rooney wasn't on the list.

    Guess it depends just how exclusive they want to make it. If it is 6 inductees each year then it makes sense to have multiple players from the same team be in it.
