Seeing as Chris was pivotal in that side, which is the only one worthy of note, then yes he is worth the title of player of the decade. That is even before you factor in his commitment to the club. He will manage NFFC one day.
He wasn’t even the best player for us in that season never mind the decade.
It says Decade, though. And the thread doesn't highlight the attributes that define a player of the decade.
Most talented. (Antonio the 'Collymore' class on his day 'good' player? And, how can we forget Reid was pretty delicious during his latter return to Forest, he'd impose himself on games or journey man Geddy MK I who seemed multi-dimensional, saved Forest from relegation under Cottrerill) Games played? Goals scored? Most tackles? Most assists? Longest time at the club? Clean sheets. 'Looked good.' 'Fan favourite.' 'Best talent for a little while before moving on.' (As none of the Forest sides or players lasted that long as player turnover and manager turnover were prodigious.)
If the thread has said, 'Most talented player who, rescued from a mediocre career at Sheff' Wed', graced us with their presence for al little while, using us a stepping stone before sulking for 'big money' move...' It would be Antonio.
