Danny Care names his best teammates and toughest opponents

1. Nick Evans

CARE SAID: “He was incredibly skilful and can read the game so well but whatever position you put him in, he remains calm and almost always picks the right option.
1864853
"He’s a very intelligent player and in my opinion, is one of the best overseas players the Premiership has ever seen. One play sums him up. Against Stade Francais in the Heineken Cup we had to win we trucked up the middle for about 30 phases to drop goal.
"After I threw him a terrible pass, he stepped three or four players, then it was recycled and he made another break but held off. On the third occasion he knocked over a truly horrible drop-kick and that’s why they paid him the big bucks.”

2. Ma'a Nonu

CARE SAID: "I’ve played against Ma’a quite a few times. Firstly, he’s such a handful to rein in. Just look at him, he's 17 odd-stone and unbelievably powerful but he’s so much more than just a crash ball merchant.
1833991
"He really worked on his offloading game and he reads the ball well. He’s a real specimen and will happily run over you all day but off the pitch, he’s really nice guy, the first to shake your hand and buy you a beer. He’s a great lad.
"I’d love to be his size for a couple of games, it would be a lot of fun.”

3. Jonny Wilkinson

CARE SAID: “What can I say? There’s no doubt he was one of the world’s best players so to play with him was a privilege. I was quite young when I was in the England set-up with him and as you’d expect, he’s a really decent guy, a real gent. He’s so good with the players coming through, helping them settle into the squad.
1879669
"He’s done everything and won everything, Heineken Cup, World Cup, you name it. Even now he’s still one of the best around, yet he’s still so humble and hard-working. I can’t give him enough praise.
"He’s not only idolized in England but by players all over the world and that shows what a special player he is.”

4. Brian O'Driscoll

CARE SAID: “Brian is probably the most talented player I’ve ever played against. He is a game winner, pure and simple. If you watch him play, he has touches of class no other players have.
1870551
"Like all great players, he reads the game well and if you watch him in midfield, his appreciation of space and ability to manipulate the defenders to create chances is so impressive. He also has an effective kicking game with little grubbers behind the defence and all the flicks and wrapround passes.
"I remember the one that set Simon Zebo up for a try against Wales was just magic. What a wonderful career he had.”

5. Justin Marshall

CARE SAID: “Justin was a massive role model and hero of mine growing up watching him play for New Zealand so I was chuffed to work with him for a short while at Leeds before moving down south.
2228763
"I learnt so much just watching him in training, the way he created space for other players, how he got across defenders. He saw gaps just by looking at people’s eyes, to see if they were not covering him. He was also very vocal, a great controller of the game and loved to attack.
"Like all good scrum-halves, he backed himself and liked the ball in hand so he could make things happen.”
