he was a hero of mine as a kid, but for all the good memories, i have to think what he could have been.
Ferguson always had the potential to be a great player, but more often than not he let himself (and the team) down.
with his ariel ability, and the aggression he brought to the game (the type that put fear in defender, not the type that got him sent off) and he did have a great left foot. let down by injuries and his own demons, but i'll still remember him from my childhood when us evertonians had nothing else to hold on to, apart from a man who had the fire we had, but not always the commitment.
