I found this list of [players considered to be cult heros.

Vinnie Jones
Gazza
Alex Lalas
Higuita
Tony Adams
Cantona
Pfaff -- I do not really understand how he was considered a cult hero.
Di Canio -- for the racist fans only.

I will add Jorge Campos(Althrough his jersey was the ugliest in the history of the game) and Crouch to the list.

Wasn't there a player for Rangers whose name prounced exactly liked "ShXt" and his jersey was the best seller in Scotalnd?

Definitely a United cult icon. Forlan was also somewhat of a mini-cult hero.

If you including managers Ian Holloway and Gordon Strachan might be worth a mention for their often-hilarious interviews and one-liners.

I think Best was a cult here, as well as Eusebio.

What about Fabien Barthez?

i would put Cuauhtemoc Blanco over Campos. Blanco could be 100 with no legs and somebody would still want him on the national team.

All clubs have their cult heroes. My favourite cult hero is Werder Bremen's Wynton Rufer.

Little clubs have their legends too. George Berry (Stoke City) and Derek "The Dude" Dawkins (Torquay Utd) were infamous for their haircuts and dress sense. Cambridge still sing the odd song about "Wolfie" Smith.

Epi Drost for Twente. Played for us from 1968 to 1980 as central defender, played for the Dutch national team nine teams in the 1970s, played a key role in Twente's glory days in the mid 1970s when we notably reached the uefa cup final after beating juventus away.

Epi died in 1995 and Twente fans still run a schedule where members alternate to visit his grave to make sure there's always a clean Twente scarf on his gravestone.
