Before I start I have to admit at being embarrassed at the roadshow shenanigans going on when Mabs first got near the first team. That said I thought he was a really good player, probably should have done a lot more, and if it hadn't been for injuries I'm sure he would've . 
Played 129 times and scored 29 times before moving to Palace for about £200,000  . Until injury struck he had a very healthy scoring rate ,  22 in 75. 
I used to go to a club and we bumped into Gary Mabbutt and his Mum , she shushed me  and told me not to tell Gary , when I told her Kevin was the better player. 
I think he was, on a pure talent level , but for getting the best from your career Gary won hands down. Some nice goals in this program.

 

Meant to add this earlier, can't mention Mabs without mentioning his hat trick at Old Trafford. Not many away player do that, so may as well post that too.
