I'd have to go for Maradona.

i watched the 2000 world soccor games, and i enjoyed most of the games. i didn't know the rules or when was half time. i liked the japan team, manly because of thier uniforms. today i know nothing about soccor, but, i do know of freddy adu. so i choose, Freddy.

But Freddy is only 14 years old ! He has still a lot to prove !!!

I'd go for Pele or...maybe Zidane.

so i can watch someone become great. in ten years freddy will be 24 and i will be 31. so i think i'll order a soccor channel.

lol

At the moment i think Zidane

Ever? Pele.

Now? I'd say Henry.

Have you noticed that defender are never awarded "Best player..."

I tend to agree with EB. If we had to pick a player for now, I'd maybe say Henry.

that's cause they barely get any attention... they don't score a lot therefor less screentime

even i know the ansewet to this question and i dont even watch soccer....its pela...EB knows it too

*Pele...not pela

Nah, got to go for Maradona. Can you imagine being a defender and having him running towards you? Theres no way you could get the ball off him. Pele was only really good in flashes. Maradona performed miracles with every club he went to. Single handedly guiding the hopeless Napoli to the Italian championship at club level and again single handedly winning the World cup with Argentina. We may never see a better player than Maradona.

yeah...good thing Pele never singlehandely led his team to the World Cup title..

Roberto Baggio

george best was simply the best player in the world.pele never played for any big clubs so i cant really think he was better than george best

Apart from MU, in which big clubs has George Best played ? (Stockport County, Cork Celtics, Dunstable Town, Los Angeles Aztecs, Fulham, Fort Lauderdale Strikers, Hibernian, San Jose Earthquakes, Bournemouth, Brisbane Lions ) Please...

So I would still say Pele but I now hesitate with Beckenbauer (a big club, the Bayern, and the West German national team)

Ronaldo the 97 and 98 periods before his got messed up the friggin boy was a revelation. he went for defenders and dribbled like mad weavin' in out away from their tackles leaving in a heap then tap the goal easily past the goalie. that was some inspired stuff!
Aint seen it in a long time

Pele

best ever for me is ZIDANE. the bald priest. RONALDO is also a legend no denying that

Me.

Yeah, Eusebio was class. I was surprised to see that he's still alive.

He's not that old

Have any of you seen Pele's new job (advertising viagra )

Yeah, his keepy uppie isn't so good these days.

pele

later: owen

Pele or Maradonna

either Pele, Jay Jay Okocha or Henrik Larsson.

Larrson? Nah, a pre injury Michael Mols was easily the best player to ever grace Scottish turf.

best striker - vieri
best defender - nesta

it's tough to go against pele. although after another impressive performance in the 2002 world cup ronaldo's world cup stats r nearly identical to pele's. the big difference being, at one point in time brazil named pele a national treasure. no other soccer player can make that claim. also, pele has a global fame, similar to michael jordan. you can say the name pele to someone who knows nothing about soccer, and they'll know who you're talking about

think I got to go for Zidane

personally, I'd have to say I'm one of the best....

that's just my modest opinion, though

Not to mention that when Pele played he didnt have boots specially made for him and all that crap that players these days have.

Pele no doubt. Maradonna will always be a cheat in my eyes with his "hand of god". Pele was the greatest player and also a bloody nice bloke.

i hate maradona the cheating s.o.b
pele never played for a good club though so i think its unfair sayin he is the best
di stefano or george best of was probably the best player eva

Rooney will be one of the best in years to come,But right now Thierry Henry

I'd say Pele hands down on this one. the guy was sick

zidane, easily

of all time? george bast, maradona, pele or di stefano

of the last ten years? zidane or rivaldo

right now? ronaldinho without a doubt
