When u hear great names like maradona, Veron, Batistuta, Crespo, Shevshenko, hansan sas, hakan sukur, Chilavet, raul, Rivaldo, Ronaldo, Ronaldinho, Roberto carlos, owen, beckham, bergkamp, nesta, maldini, inzaghi, cristian vieri, overmas, keane, zidane, pires, henry, harry kewell, robin fowler, okocha, kanu, sunday oliseh victor ikpeba, yekini, amokachi and others, these were men who played to entertain us and with passion as well. They were a beauty to behold on the field of play. U always look forward to every match just to keep ursef entertained. Cr7 & messi are just playing for the money. To be sincere I no longer enjoy football. 1 Like |

newsprocom: Nice mix. That Raymond Kalla of Cameroon allows only one thing to get past him at a time. He either allows the ball to pass without the dribbler or the dribbler to pass without the ball. Both the dribbler and ball can't get past him, he never allows it. 2 Likes 1 Share |

"JUJU" Himself-------- Ronaldinho (Best dribbler,the game has ever produced) Ronaldo De Lima-------- The best 9,I've seen in the game. Lionel Messi--------The most trickery player,football has produced. Zinadine Zidane---------The Prof I didn't watch Maradona and Pele,so I don't know how they played.

Started watching football around 2000.... Am a Man utd fan, so u will see a touch of man utd in my formation (nt man utd players o). I appreciate every player's attribute for who they are, be it pace, flair, passing, vision, tackle, aggression, leadership ability, composure etc here is d team lists.... GOALKEEPERS Iker Carsilas (Real Madrid & Spain)..he commands his area well, a champion hes won it all, name it... Edwin van der ser (Man United & Netherlands)... ability nd reflexes, good goalkeeper, honourable mention d great peter schmeichel DEFENDERS (Left fullback) Roberto Carlos (Real Madrid & Brazil)... sorry Patrice Evra, but i cant leave out Carlos in my team, bombing forward, freekicks enough said.... Pablo juan Sorin (Villareal & Argentina)... arsenal why why would u elliminate pple like sorin, riquelme, marcos senna.. why arsenal? (Right fullbacks)' Cafu (Ac Milan & Brazil)... more like a carlos on the right... dat means i must choose crazy defenders. Gary Neville (Man United & England) .. defending nd croosing into the opposite box... nasri u suck 4 dribbling him lyk dat, nd ending his career. (Central defenders) Nemanja D Tank Vidic(Man United & Serbia) One Word SOLID. sorry Rio, but with the set of fullbacks i have, i dont want ball playing defender.. Paolo D Great Maldini (Ac Milan & Italy) composure, aggression. A true champion, won it xcept D ultimate World cup. Franco D little One Baresi (Ac Milan & Italy) please guys, i never see him play but i cant ignore dis legend, a grade above maldini in my opinion, a true champion won it all. Marcel Desailly (Ac Milan & France) yaya toure, wat nasri said was true, u shld av played 4 a country lyk france nd u would b a legend. now to desailly, a good tackler of the ball and also had an eye for goals. HM Carles Puyol.. MIDFIELDERS (Central midfielders) Claude Makelele (Chelsea & France) In homage to Makélélé, many fans and pundits alike have dubbed the defensive midfield position as the "Makélélé Role. Enough said. Roy Keane (Man United & Rep. of Ireland) a leader a dominating defensive midfielder , noted for his aggressive and highly competitive style of play, ended his own career with anger, i know dats one thing he wont do again if hes given a 2nd chance. Pavel Nedved (Juventus & Czech) am sorry Micheal Laudrup i never see you play... The Czech cannon, he will play in front of my defensive midfielder, for his quick and energetic runs during matches, if i can tune back time, my only wish is for Nedved to win the champions league. Zenedine Zidane (Juventus & France) juve 1st b4 real, just like pogba case will be, a legend of the game, Renowned for his elegance, vision and excellent technique( all spain nd brazil team of 2006 world will tell u more about dis legend when he came back 4rm retirement.. nd also dd brazil team of 1998.. good delima finally won at 2002 world cup .. Thank you zidane for what you did for the football game. Please i nid to add one more central/attacking midfielder, please again, i cant leave dis legend out tho i never see him play .. his name is Lothar Mattaus (Bayern Munich & Germany) a legend and a true champion of the game... dis sums him up... hear what El Diego said about him "he is the best rival I've ever had. I guess that's enough to define him", in his book Yo soy el Diego (I am the Diego). So dat means my wingers nd strikers will torture the opposition because of my CBs nd MFs WINGERs (Right wingers) Luis Figo (Real Madrid & Portugal) You dont just play for real nd barca, Figo was dat good, Renowned for his creativity and having the ability to get past defenders. Hear what Figo said about Ronaldi and Messi, the current legenda.. "If I were a manager I would try to sign Messi or Cristiano, two great players who are head and shoulders above the rest". "But I was fortunate enough to play with some fantastic players - both in my teams and as opposition - who were quite possibly even better than Cristiano and Messi." enough said. Here in Ibadan we call #500 FIGO, lol . I want him to displace blatter as president of Fifa.. Christiano Ronaldo (Man United & Portugal) Made in manchester ... sorry beckham, ronaldo over you (Left wingers) Ronaldinho (Barcelona & Brazil) you remember dis guy at 2002 world cup? Nt you, am asking oliver khan. A true legend, won it all. Renowned for his technique, tricks, dribbling, overhead kicks, no-look passes and free kicks. Hristo D Dagger Stoichkov (Barcelona & Bulgeria) 'El Pistolero', never watched him play, but tutored by Johan Cruyff a legend on his own, total football lol. Honourable mention Ryan Giggs. TREQUARTISTA/PLAYMAKER/ NO 10 ROLE Diego Maradona (Napoli & Argentina) Ricardo Kaka (Ac Milan & Brazil) Honourable mentions... Lionel Messi (Barcelona & Argentina) Del Piero (Juventus & Italy) Francesco Totti (As Roma & Italy) Gianfranco Zola (Chelsea & Italy) Played alongside El Diego nd Careca.. Dennis Bergkamp (Arsenal & Netherlands) Johan Cruyff (Ajax & Netherlands) Bobby Charlton (Man Utd & England) STRIKER Delima Ronaldo "the phenomenon" (Real Madrid & Brazil) a true Great, won it all xcept for Champs league.. Honourable mentions Pele (Santos & Brazil) Raul (Real Madrid & Spain) Cantona (Man Utd) Inzaghi, Nistelrooy, Henry, Crespo, Gabriel Batistuta. 1 Like |
