I could never quite get the Zidane hype certainly an excellent player but I do not think he should be mentioned alongside the truly greats like Maradona Messi The Ronaldos Baggio Best  Cruyff etc

He was stylish and fun to watch during the most highly commercialised era of football yet seen (that could, for example, make a cultural icon out of Edgar Davids, a defensive midfielder, and Pierluigi Collina, a fucking referee).

I would put Zidane on a par with Baggio, although I don’t think either should be categorised with the others.

An online petition calling for Real Madrid's Sergio Ramos to be punished for “intentionally” injuring Mo Salah has absolutely smashed its initial target - with no signs of slowing down.

Around 22 hours after the petition had been created, it had already received more than 200,000 signatures - with many people outraged enough to call for Ramos to be retrospectively punished by UEFA or FIFA. By 8.45pm, it had reached more than 223,000 signatures.

Thats him with a well known German rock singer, the guy in the LFC shirt and the blonde guy is a sports presenter chap, the German equivalent of Gary Lineker I suppose. Klopp has always liked a party win lose or draw.

Zidane is easily one of the best footballers ever and without question up there with Maradona etc, he's starting to become criminally underrated by some people these days, no idea why. Genius! Best doesn't come close to Zidane!

As for Ramos, legend, anybody who believes that was intentional is utterly clueless.

Best not coming close to Zidane

...fuck off?????

I naively thought he maybe went out on the town after the game and ended up in the company of some random genuine Liverpool fans, like the man of the people he is painted as.

More from Sky, I can only think of one other team who's supporters might try this. 

More than 400,000 people have signed a petition calling for FIFA to punish Sergio Ramos for "intentionally hurting" Mo Salah.

Liverpool's talisman Salah went off injured in the first half of the Champions League final after a challenge from the Real Madrid defender.

The organisers of a change.org petition have argued the Spaniard deliberately held the Egyptian winger's arm "under his armpit, causing dislocation of his shoulder".

Hundreds of thousands of people had signed in support of the claims on Monday evening, with the petition calling on UEFA and FIFA to punish Ramos.

It comes as Egyptian lawyer Bassem Wahba launched a €1bn (£873m) lawsuit against Ramos, amid fears Salah may be unable to represent his national side in the 2018 World Cup.

Mr Wahba said he had filed a complaint to FIFA claiming Ramos had inflicted "physical and psychological harm" upon Salah.

He told the Egyptian television channel Sada El-Balad: "Ramos intentionally injured Mo Salah and should be punished about his actions."

Mr Wahab continued: "I've filed a lawsuit and a complaint to FIFA.

"I'll ask for compensation, which could exceed €1bn, for the physical and psychological harm that Ramos gave Salah and the Egyptian people."

The Premier League's 2017/2018 top scorer has said he is "confident"he will be fit for the summer tournament in Russia despite injury fears.

The 25-year-old left the field in tears before Real Madrid's 3-1 victory in Kiev on Saturday night.

Liverpool had nine shots while he was on the pitch but none for the remaining of the half.

Ramos, who was not given a yellow card for his controversial challenge, wished Salah an "early recovery" on Sunday.

In a tweet translated from Spanish, he wrote: "Football teaches you the sweetest face at times and the bitterest of others (sic).

"First of all we are partners.

"Early recovery, Salah. The future awaits you."

Those who created the petition to punish Ramos also criticised his performance in the rest of the match.

They wrote: "He kept acting that (sic) Liverpool players fouled him falsely, causing the referee to give Mane a yellow card he did not deserve.

"Sergio Ramos represents an awful example to future generations of football players.

"Instead of winning matches fairly, he uses tricks that defy the spirit of the game and fair play.

"UEFA and FIFA should take measures against Ramos and similar players, using the video recordings of matches to keep the spirit of the game."

:duh:

These are supporters of a team Luis Suarez played for, right?
