    Nae Zidane? He got my vote til Messi appeared on the scene and put a line in the sand further than anyone will I suspect, in my lifetime anyway.

    The tweet of Maradona being in hospital that crow bumped the thread with that you were clearly making reference to.

    I was making reference to Maradona being in hospital not a tweet pal. Hope that clears things up.

    Zidane is the most overrated player ever. Iniesta was twice the player imo.

    I agree with this. Zidane was excellent but not as amazing as some would make out.

    Aye he was a great player, but when I say overrated I just mean that I don't hold him in as high regard as the top 10 players of all time, while some people seem to.

    I hope and pray this is satire.

    I will only excuse this ignorance on the basis your a play station obsessed millennial...not a slur by the way just an excuse for this heresy

    Ronaldinho was the most talented for me on his day and haven't seen Maradona outwith YT clips so don't get involved in these debates. Can see why folk could make claims for both Maradona and Messi but the game has evolved so much that it's impossible to compare really.

    Hope he gets well soon.

    Me too. Sure he never made mad numbers but the * he done with a ball was brilliant. Still mind that game where he somehow flicked it to the right, and when the other guys tries to tackle he instantly mid air flicked it the other way leaving the guy stranded :56: Tried that for months at school and constantly kicked it out of play :56: :56:

    The greatest ever, imagine him playing today with the protection that players get and the fitness level he’d have.
