DrLaudrup 4,437 Posted March 27, 2020 Share Posted March 27, 2020 Football Italia was always on when I was younger - players from Serie A then were just outstanding and I thought there was more quality across the league than the Spanish league. There were a lot of absolute world class players - Vialli, Mancini, Schillachi, Boban, Maldini, Signori, Totti, Batistuta, Gullit, Van Basten etc. My favourite was always Roberto Baggio though. What a player he was and I always feel he's sort of forgotten about a bit in terms of some of the greatest players ever to play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet the English with no irony, with tell you even back then they had the best league in the world. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t really do it for Inter, if I remember correctly, but some record at Red Star. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batistuta was my favourite then I'd say Baggio. Some players Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tero Penttila 425 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I’ll always love Zidane. The way he ended his career with the headbutt in the World Cup Final just added to his legend for me. As a footballer, just sublime. Head and shoulders above the rest of what was the greatest national team of its era. I can’t bring myself to say that he wasn’t as good as Messi and Ronaldo, because in my head he was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domthenbud 899 Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 I just love seeing goals scored which is why I believe we should have a much larger league ( another discussion). When the game is shite it’s great to see goals. Anyway with goals in mind one of my favourite players would be Gerd Mueller. Just unbelievable striker.
