      You can't be Top 3 with that attitude and pure violence on the pitch. I'm old enough to remember that football was violent back then but some of those challenges are outright despicable, could end up players' carreers. I respect the man but this video is a disgusting example of his tenure

    Souness, Souness, Souness, Souness,
    Born is the King of Ayresome Park!
    He was my first and only football god until Juninho. He was consistently rated 10/10 in the Sunday People every week playing for Middlesbrough alongside Bobby Murdoch and Spike Armstrong in the old First Division's best midfield by far. No-one came close to him in the ratings. But nobody took any notice until he signed for Liverpool, at which point he was suddenly proclaimed the best midfielder in Europe. It was the same story with Scotland. By the time he was finally picked for Scotland's wooden spoon game when he orchestrated their hammering of the Dutch in Argentina 78 he'd amassed the sum total of a measly 6 caps. Like at Middlesbrough and Liverpool he was a player to build the team around. You either gave him the ball or he took it, your sock, and the best part of your shin.

      Souness only became known for playing tough, some better midfielders of his time that come to my mind are Maradona, Zico, Platini, Gullit, Baggio, Matthaus, Scifo, Falcao, Socrates, Rijkaard, Antognoni, Tardelli, Schuster, and Robson but the comment of Joan Ruiz Jacob talked about players in general so if we bring strikers, wingers, and defenders in the conversation he is definitely outside the top 30.

Souness was a defensive midfielder doing all the dirty work which enables players like that to get up front and shine. You would not pick a midfield full of Rijkaards or Sounesses you would try to find a balance of players with both skillsets.
