Paolo Di Canio

Colourful yet controversial, Paolo Di Canio will surely go down in history as one of the game's most divisive figures. For those who loved the Italian, his artistry will live long in the memory. Scorer of one of the Premier League's greatest volleys – a sublime acrobatic scissor kick beyond Wimbledon's Neil Sullivan at Upton Park in 2000 – Di Canio is particularly popular among West Ham United fan, a club with which the Hammers legend still enjoys a close relationship.
