Starting the thread off with this guy
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire"> Arguably the best centre forward to play in the Premier League, this was also the season of that gorgeous Arsenal kit!
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😍" title="Smiling face with heart-shaped eyes" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with heart-shaped eyes">
Bergkamp
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire"> Weirdly these Shoot Out Cards don’t have any players rated 4 stars, they’ve got 3 stars, 3 stars with a shiny symbol and then 5 stars
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy"> If they did have 4 stars, this man surely couldn’t be rated any lower?
Hands up who forgot these two played for Birmingham!

Bellamy was class that season wasn’t he?

Big Kevin Davies, great at bullying defenders! How on earth did he get capped for England though?

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy">
These two would surely be rated higher if they’d been giving 4 star ratings that season, could even go as far as rating them 5 stars!

Every player on this page deserves a mention to be honest!

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire"> Harsh ratings for Cole, Drogba and Gudjohnsen though!
Baller

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚽️" title="Soccer ball" aria-label="Emoji: Soccer ball"> No other words needed!
Fulham have had some good players over the years! Here are my favourites from 05/06
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚽️" title="Soccer ball" aria-label="Emoji: Soccer ball">
Arguably the best ginger to play in the Prem! Besides Paul Scholes of course!
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Fire" aria-label="Emoji: Fire">
Class

I think this was the season that Stuart Pearce put this bloke up front

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy"> Iconic!
More contenders for the non existent 4 star rating here! Very deserving of it as well in my opinion!
@MyFootballShir1 You were right! Harsh rating in hindsight however I don’t think Ronaldo had really hit full stride at this point to be fair!
How this man hasn’t been given 5 stars is beyond me! The Premier League’s greatest ever ginger
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy"> #Genius
Two of the best ever Premier League centre forwards here!
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔴" title="Red circle" aria-label="Emoji: Red circle"> Rooney in particular was an absolute monster at this point!
Now this rating baffles me a bit
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Face with tears of joy" aria-label="Emoji: Face with tears of joy"> Nothing against the big guy, in fact I thought he was class back in these days but giving him the same rating as Henry and Rooney? Do me a favour

https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="⚽️" title="Soccer ball" aria-label="Emoji: Soccer ball"> Again, arguably the best centre forward to grace the Premier League!
This lad could hit them couldn’t he?

Always rated Julio Arca, the rest of the Sunderland team that season was dire
