Di Canio for flair and ball skill.

Waddle for all round influence on the field, temperament and consistency.

(Both of them together in the same team would have been interesting).

waddle 60 odd caps, player of the year ,world cup semi-finalist,adored and applauded every time he went back to a former club .......di canio flip all really.

Di Canio was an international class footballer that would have racked up more caps has his temperament and attitude been better. I am sure that he could have at least been part of Italian squads that have won major trophies. A bit like Cantona really. The way that he was playing in the nineties, it was a travesty that he wasn't at least part of the French squad that won European and World Cups but the same thing applied with him. Nothing to do with ability. Everything to do with attitude, application and team discipline.

Quick answer would be Waddle, but the reasons why are not just on the pitch.

Waddle loved Sheffield in the end, I believe he still lives here or at least did for a long time after he left Wednesday. He was a team player, his end product was usually someone else scoring, Di Canio was just as much a football genius as Waddle, but he was a little more selfish and not quite the same team player.
