Let's remind ourselves that it wasn't always this shite over the past 10 years Sound

Rudi is obviously up there but for talent, memes and great moments that he's given us, I've got to go with Funk.

I’ve had a few favourites like Kevin Kyle, Suso, Zaliukas and even Dr Funk and Lafferty, but everyone pales in comparison to Rudi.

Rudi for me, genuinely loved watching him play over his two spells with us. Heart

It's not even a debate for me.

Absolutely adored by the support and absolutely adored us back,

2 goals in a cup final against Hibs. (He's already got one in the 2006 final against Gretna).

Loved a goal against the Hibs. Never frightened of the old firm (that semi goal against Celtic)  VanGaals Bitch

Anally raped St Mirren every time he played them.  Crowe

Just the last player to really deliver on so many levels.

Btw, the similarity between his first Tynie goal against Hibs in his first spell, and the first on his comeback against Rangers is quite weird.

Obviously it’s rudi but special mention to Michael smith who I’m quite fond of despite him generally being in dreadful teams.

Rudi is out on his own. If it was just his performances. But he loves us. He gets us. And he fucking hates Hibs. And regularly tore them apart. Probably the biggest legend since Robbo and if we were to create a series of statues on the plaza, there'd be huge pressure for Rudi if we were trying to find even 5 nominees across our history. He is the stand out of the recent chapter in Hearts history. Genuinely love the man. Pains me that our current squad wear the same shirt.

If we were making a Hearts mount Rushmore like carved into the side of the castle rock or would be; Robbo, Rudi, Mr Romanov, Hartley and Cameron

I miss having hero’s like Rudi Sob

Zal was a cult hero

Smith the best bit of business we’ve done in a long time.

Smit is decent but he's been a part of bang average/woeful hearts teams so as much as he's one of the extremely few players I like at hearts he's still a bit meh.

No disrespect to him, but folk naming a fairly decent defender like Smith as a favourite player just about sums up how low we have sunk.

Bobby Walker
Tommy Walker
Wllie Bauld.
Dave Mackay. 
John Cumming.
Alex Young. 
Drew Busby. 
John Robertson. 
Rudi Skacel.

I can picture a plaza statue area of club legends, record holders and cult figures. I'm biased. As a fan. But what a club we are. Arguably gave both Everton and Spurs the greatest players in their histories.

If not a statue area. Maybe a montage or mural. On the side of a tenement maybe. Hold on....

Liking the shouts for Rudi. He's my favourite Hearts player ever and my generations Robbo. Thought I'd go for someone different though.

I really liked Kevin Kyle and wee Davie Cooper Templeton and that JJ 2010-2011 team in general. Loved wee Mo Gomis from the Championship team as well.

This should be titled “favourite Hearts player this decade - except for Rudi” as there is only one correct answer here.

Zaliukas, Funk and Wighton really the only other contenders.
