You sure I have Xavi on 85 goals and Iniesta on 134..Xavi played deeper than Iniesta for the most part but still has more goals and assists for Barcelona.

He was mustard at MilanAndriy Shevchenko. Outside of Ronaldo I would say he's possibly the best striker of the modern era. Overshadowed by a few unfortunate years at Chelsea at the end.
I love it. Remember seeing it on Football Italia on C4 back then. What a goal it is.If I scored a goal Iike this on fifa, I'd be questioning game's mechanics...
My shout out goes to Łukasz Piszczek.
If anyone's not rating Muller at this point, then I reckon there's just no hope for themThomas Müller
Me too. Wish we still had him and a creative winger.Lukaku
Good shout.Mandzukic was a good player. Treble win with Bayern, did well for Juve too. Flopped a bit at Atletico if I remember correctly but there's no shame in that, it can happen.
Both are class. While we are in these types of ‘full disclosure, say whatever you feel’ threads - I’d have Mount over Bruno personally. Slightly different styles of player, but I prefer the Mount type of midfielder.Mount & Rice. A lot of fans, even England fans, think they’re garbage when they’re very good young players that are improving all the time. Mount is getting some respect now though.
There are probably others but I can only think of recent ones.
Edit: Danny Welbeck too. Think if he wasn’t so fragile he’d have had a very good career.
Was going to say him too. When people mention all time elevens and some of the best players, he barely gets mentioned but there was a period of 3/4 seasons where Del Piero and Brazilian Ronaldo were just head and shoulders above everybody else akin to Messi/Ronaldo now.Alessandro Del Piero.
Personally, I think he's one of the best players ever and this is one of the best goals ever scored.
He was also better at free kicks than Ronaldo, Messi, Pele, Cruyff and Maradona combined.
Me three. Another one of those strikers that "can only score" haha. I'll take that.Me too. Wish we still had him and a creative winger.
Quaresma was linked with us so much as a youngster I remember and seemed highly touted than Ronaldo, was talented but he just never fulfilled it for me despite some great moments.Riquelme. World class player who was the most important player for Argentina for a brief period. I rate him higher than his actual ability but it’s because I loved watching him play.
Quaresma - never fulfilled his talent etc etc but what a joy to watch. Give me a YouTube video of Quaresma over 99% of other players
Didn't you guys sell him in the winter transferwindow? Felt so random to me. He was doing very well!Schurrle (pre-illness). Was overlooked so much by Mourinho for Oscar and Willian but was definitely better than both of them. Always passionate and hardworking even when he had an off game.

To come in as a youngster to replace Baggio the pressure was absolutely huge on him and he took to it like a duck to water, used to hate and love watching him against us in Europe. Only criticism I could level was he never really lit up the Italian jersey but what a fantastic player he was in his pomp, one of my favourites of all time.
Iniesta was a big game player. During Spain’s World Cup win was the main man and scored the winning goal in the final.Dirk Kuyt, people say he’s dogshite and make fun of him, but he busted his balls constantly and scored a fair few goals for a nothing player.
Andres Iniesta, everyone says Xavi was the better player but Iniesta always stood out for me and scored important goals
Kaka, there’s a weird notion on this forum that Kaka was not that good but if you watched him at his best he was truly world class.
