| Originally posted by torontotrance time to bring back a classic topic and no taha, no africans have made my list yet. Greatest Soccer Players of All Time List -Ferenc Puskas,.Bobby Charlton, Pele, Di Stefano, Garincha, Eusebio -Cryuff, Platini, Beckenbauer, Maradona, Stanley Matthews -Lev Yashin (the black panther)..... can you really argue against my list? |
Supper Ally McCoist of Rangers. He was a leg-end in Glasgow!
My favourites (from the seventies to nowadays):
Best goalkeeper: Zoff
Best defenders: Maldini - Beckenbauer
Best midfields: Maradona - Cruyff
Best forwards: Romario - M�ller
Van Nistelrooij 
At least he will be in 10 years 
list could go on n on, but some players that stick out r the Dutch legands: Van Basten, Gullit, Cryuff n then u got others like Best, Pele, Maradona, Beckenbauer
imo i think its impossible to compare footballers now to what it was in the past, so much has changes, no more drinkin for professional footballers, fitness levels r beyond belief to what they were before. Players that stood out in their day r legendary players, eg Zidane today n whoever
u lot know nothing 
David Eyres, Oldham athletic midfielder (near manchester 
) who is knocking 40 and still one of the fastest and most leathl players in Div 2

| Originally posted by Blik lol, does that make him a legend, hell no 4 times a year he plays against a good team in your competetion, which is Glasgow. The other 32 matches are against crappy teams, so I think it is pretty normal that he scores a lot in the competition. That he scores against Liverpool and Blackburn is a rather stupid comment, when a striker scores against a team which is supposed to be better then his own team it just doesn't make him a great player. You are a great player when you have great achievements in Europe, that means in different competions in Europe (or elsewhere) and in the European league. but you also have to accomplish things with your country, and tell me, what did Sweden achieve the last few years with Henrik Larsson? not much conclusion: Henrik Larsson is a good striker, but he will never belong to the greatest of all times |

Apart from all the obvious choices I can't argue with Alan Shearer, he's gonna be remembered for ever.
What about Dixie Dean? - 60 goals in one season suggests to me he was pretty good, even though I've seen no hard evidence...

Johan Cruyff Marco Van Basten
Pizarro!!! He has dribbling skills rivaling the best legends of the world. if you have kazzaa, you can see his plays, just go to video search...pizarro...and see some very good fakes, one of the very rare ones to do the rainbow that actually got by defensemen.
same thing with Zickler, very good player.
also, anyone seen the scorpian?? that goalkeeper who did that needs to be added because no one else has ever done that before that or until now..

| and in my books pavel nedved is a star! imo he is an electrifying and great soccer player |
Nowadays the best players for me are Zidane, Nedved, Henry, Totti and Casillas.
Raul?. I am spanish, but I think Raul is being overrated, he fights a lot, and sometimes he scores great goals, but it's not a superclass. The majority of his goals are very easy to score, with players like Zidane, Figo, R.Carlos or Salgado is easy to score a goal..... they put the ball where they want.....
I am fan of Real Madrid, and I think that Zidane and Casillas are the best of the team. Figo fights a lot, but it's not the marvelous Figo that played for Barsa, is much slower and the defenders know that. Ronaldo is a bit fat, and he can't repeat the goals that he scored in Barcelona, since his serious knee injure he lost a lot of confidence.
Beckham is surprising me, he fights much more than I would imagine, but I expected a player with more "dribbling".
