    George Best

    He was a genius of a player. Moved and dribbled like Messi, though not as good as Messi obviously.

    Greatest player(s) of all time and other legends

    Cannot find a Van Basten thread so will post it here. Went down the rabbit hole of the Linkin Park reddit after all the talk of the CL Final. Look at this guy's list of players better than Van Basten (he said MVB isn't top 20 ever)... Cristiano Ronaldo, Leo Messi, Diego Maradona, Pelé, Eusebio...

    Love this pic

    Roberto Carlos

    Fair point, forgot Alves (and in my Greatest Ever as well). Alves deserves a shout for sure, over Djalma I think and maybe Cafu too. Zanetti could also be a reserve at LB or RB

    Roberto Carlos

    On this subject, here's a Greatest Ever team I put together a few years ago. Probably biggest oversight is Xavi in the bench. Obviously Cruyff isn't a deep midfielder either but just wanted to get as many top players in as I could, lol. A few big names missing (Banks, Alves, Zico, Puskas etc)...

    Roberto Carlos

    Cafu and Maldini would be extremely popular (the most popular) picks at RB and LB respectively in an all-time XI. I guess going further back Nilton Santos and Djalma Santos from the great Brazilian sides would have a shout too, but obviously way, way less footage of them.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    He played for the best team in Serie A though. And they stopped their long winning run while he was there... Anyway my only post on Ronaldo here as do no want to take thread off-topic.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Agree, just because I seen some people mention Doue. Yamal is obviously better but Doue is class too (and we all said that before Saturday too). It's no shame not being as good as Lamine.

    Ousmane Dembélé

    Come on mate - while I agree Dembele has been excellent and am impressed by his improvement at PSG (you make good points there), you know as well as I do that you cannot reduce Ribery to numbers. Not even venturing an opinion on Ribery v Ronaldo that year - just saying that it's a bad faith...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    116 players voted for him from the 216, impressive. What's even more impressive about the lad is I think his percentage should be even higher.

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    Lamine is definitely better, there's no doubt about it. But Doue is a future world-class player in the making too. There can be more than one great player. Lamine -like Messi - should stand on his own level, all being well. But that doesn't mean that Doue isn't a great player or that people...

    10 - Lamine Yamal

    United have (for the most part as some are decent) the most clueless, bitter, angry, small-time fans. They call every other fanbase these things, but it is just projection. Another factor for their bitterness is so many United 'fans' support the club because of their love for Ronaldo, so hate...

    Champions League 2024-25

    He's being eaten out from the inside. The little things he gave away cost him in the final. Psg were the best team this season, leave out all the rest. Dimarco could get nowhere near doue, he was pushing him away. The final was crawling with incompetence by inter. In the end inter were just numb.

    Champions League 2024-25

    I like Linkin Park a lot but they should be nowhere near a football event.

    Johan Cruyff

    Yes Pep is a better manager than Ferguson ever was. And indeed, Cruyff's brilliance isn't in what he won, but how he thought about the game and his thinking. Which runs through FC Barcelona to this day.

    Champions League 2024-25

    Lol I do like Rassvet, but he loves to stoke the fires on here and cause controversy.

    Champions League 2024-25

    'He's trying to fool people into thinking he travels like you @Temptation' India is a really big country to travel across, to be fair.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    She's come a long way since Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill. lol sorry mate, just a small joke - couldn't resist.
  19. Maradona37

    Luis Enrique

    Yeah that is what I agree with. He seems to have taken a step up. Probably more experience too. He's 55 now.

    Johan Cruyff

    A genius. Ferguson gets called the GOAT manager, and Cruyff doesn't have Ferguson's trophy count but he understood the game far better than Ferguson ever has.
