No disagreement about Owen or Macca. I would just add that when you get down to brass tacks, very few of these players really care about the rest of us. Even the average ones are drawing a wage and living a life most of us could only dream of. They may give a clap or kiss the badge at the right times , and say the right things about having the greatest supporters, but I think we tend to think more about what they think of us than they actually do.
I'm happy with players who give their all for the cause of winning trophies, and stay out of embarrassing situations. In the case of someone who ends up being extra thoughtful to the community (Andy Robertson comes to mind), that's a great bonus, but I don't expect it.
