Cian O'Sullivan, for me, this guy is the most complete footballer in the country today.

Corner back, wing back, centre back, MF, wing forward, Cian has played them all bar FF line and has been top drawer in each.
If anything, he is TOO versatile.
Jack Mc got POTY and a fine player he is too, but if I had to go into an AI Final minus Jack or COS, I would want COS by my side all day

I honestly think COS is probably the most complete footballer of his generation.

Discuss....(if ye dont mind like lads, not telling ye to like, yaknowwhatimeanlike!!)

Cian is brilliant....his performance in this year's All-_ireland Final was crucial. His positioning and general reading of the game are top class.
Hope he's not used as a full back. Number 6 is his position.

For me Connolly and Paul Flynn are the Dub's 2 best payers. Not just Dublin but the 2 most complete footballers in the country.

Most complete footballer of his generation? Steady on.

A very good footballer but I noticed he went from being a useful utility back in a great team to one of the all time greats in the space of about 10 days last year.

The best player for Dublin is Bernard Brogan, a top class forward. Cian O'Sullivan is a great player and a natural footballer, he has won an All-Ireland medal in three different positions, No 2, No. 6 & No. 9. Perhaps the next All Ireland medal he wins will be as a Full Back, which would indeed be remarkable.

If, by complete, you are talking about versatility at the highest level, I'd go for Joey McMahon. Doesn't matter where Joe plays, he is always outstanding. Even if he switches mid-game, say from wing forward to FB, he seems to slot into his new role with no fuss and no adjustment time needed. Cian is good but, for me, he's well behind Joey.

Not for me in anyways.

A great player for us and one that'd get a game for anyone else alright. He may end up being one of the greats once his career is over but can't agree with Liam's assertion right now.
