Aren't I entitled to my own opinions? What right had you got to say I am a nutter?:D
1. Yes, you;re more than entitled to your opinion.
2. I said your a nutter, because you don't rate Ronaldo and Zidane!

Only playful banter...

Manchester United need a minor miracle now, they'r
More interesting to go non-United:

1) Roberto Baggio
2) Romario
3) Dennis Bergkamp
4) Paolo Maldini
5) Zinedine Zidane
6) Matthias Sammer
7) Zvonimir Boban
8) Ronaldinho
9) Kaka
10) Georghe Hagi

Touch and go for a few of those to be honest, particularly the more contemporary ones. Too bad I'm a little bit too young to remember Maradona.
It was a toss up between him and henry for me... and now that I think about it, bergkamp was probably better

I'm jogging, I've never seen Maradona play (apart from highlights, and great moment clips etc.) Plus it's all personal opinion.

Surprised to see Titus Bramble hasn't got a look-in yet.
zidane = bramble (thus says the chief)

zidane > bramble and the chief is a twat (thus says the rest f the caf)

Cahill is indeed a joy to watch. See how Everton struggles without him. That guy is truely a footballing genius. Just that Everton is more or less an above average team and not many people sit up to watch them.
Yeah because with Cahill Everton are a force to be reckoned with.

At that time players like Bergkamp or Beckham deserved the award much more than him. He won it only because of the World Cup.
Beckham better than Zidane? Err..This defies the laws of logics, are you on a one-man crusade to simply ruin the cafe's IQ?

He was never impressive. Just that he had good team mates around him which made him look good.
Tevez
Cristiano Ronaldo
Cantona
Beckham
Vidic
Tim Cahill
Zola
Maradona
Pele
Roy Keane
He is not a good player. Cheating scums are never good players even though they have skill
Never rated him since his headbutt. fecking disgrace.
Christ, you're on form today.
To an effect, you've just picked out 3 of the truly great footballers of the past 20 years in Ronaldo, Zidane and Rivaldo aswell as omitting some incredible footballers and stated that they're not as good as Tim Cahill.

I can't believe what i've just read.

Batistuta deserves more of a mention. He wasnt very likeable but was a striker who had it all IMO.

You're always aiming me.

I guess different people sees things differently. Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.

Im sorry, but i will go out on a limb and say NOBODY else in this forum thinks Cahill is in the top ten players they have ever seen.

Zidane. Cristiano Ronaldo. Ariel Ortega. Nani. Off the top of my head, those are 4 footballers who have been sent off for a headbutt. Seem like a pretty decent bunch of players to me. Can't imagine why it makes them any less of a player in your eyes.

In no order:


Zidane
Cantona
Bergkamp
Ronaldo (fat)
Ronaldo (sexy)
Ronaldinho
Schmeichel
Maldini (every list needs a defender)
Hristo Stoichkov (spg)
Romario


Difficult this. Could have been many others in there as well. Tried to go non United for the most part, but Schmikes, Ronaldo and Cantona were hard to keep out IMO.

I see, Caftards didn't forget about Maldini.

Very good. He deserve that. He won almost everything in football.

In a vague order of skill, could easily have a few swapped around.

Zidane
Ronaldo
Kaka
Messi
Henry
Bergkamp
Drogba
Rooney
C Ronaldo
Maldini

Very Attack Oriented but they're most noticeable.

Seedorf never gets a mention in any of these lists which I find strange.
One of those players, I feel, that is invaluable to a team, but not in the extreme top tier in terms of sheer individual ability and skill.

I am not a man........I am Cantona
Cant put them in order:

Figo
Rui Costa
Keane
Paul McGrath
Ronaldo
Scholes
Kaka
Nedved
Gazza
Beckham

Probably better players out there but Figo and Keane were the 2 that impressed me the most.

He's a great player on his day, but when he's having a bad one he can be truly truly awful. Often there is no middle ground with the guy which probably affects his presence on these lists.

Inconsistent at times, but a great talent no doubt.
