I'm just wandering who everyone's top 10 players of all time are. Mine have to be.
1) Maradona. (The rotten cheat may have scored the "hand of God", but he was simply the best.)
2) Pelé. Just look at his goalscoring record.
3) Cruyff. An amazing man, amazing skill, amazing technique, amazing player. 3 time European footballer of the year award.
4) Di Stefano. The amazing Argentine responsible for Real Madrid winning those five European cups in a row in the 50's.
5) Platini. The best French player ever. Only man to have ever won the European footballer of the year award three times in a row.
6) Puskas. The man responsible for the Hungarian dominance of the 1950's, he scored 83 goals in 84 games for his country. Amazing.
7) Beckenbauer. Yes, he may be German, but he is the man who practically invented the sweeper role and probably the best defender ever.
8) Dixie Dean. He may be an Evertonian, but his goalscoring record says enough. He holds the record for most goals in a season in England, 60, and he scored 18 times in 16 games for England.
9) Eusebio. The top scorer of the 1966 world cup, this man was amazing. Played for Portugal, even though he was from Mozambique.
10) Zico. Another amazing Brazilian. Amazing on the ball and a lethal shot.

Come on, they've been comparing Rooney to Pelé for God's sake. We all know he's not going to live up to that.

Yes, todays players are fitter but nothing can match "natural" skill. No matter how hard you train or special advanced techniques used. You cant just "breed" superstars.
Every few months a you here a story of how someone has signed the "new maradona" but they NEVER live up to the name.

If you did:
Buffon, Carlos, Nesta, Cannavaro, Thuram, Nedved, Zidane, Vieira, Figo, Van Nistelrooy, Henry
vs
Yashin, Beckenbauer, Maldini, Baresi, Platini, Cruyff, Best, Maradona, Pele, Di Stefano and Van Basten.
I think the oldies would win, even though Maldini, Maradona and Van Basten aren't really oldies.

I think if you played the old 'greats' against the best players of today, the current players would come up top.
Its a learning process, and football will only get better as time goes on, players will become more technical and have learnt and improved on wht the old masters could do.
There are very few players of old that could compete, if not stand out from todays crowd, pele and maradonna are two, but it would be hard for them.

Dunno about best player of all time, as I haven't been around for many years, but of the footage I have seen, Jairzinho and Garrincha looked much better players than Pele.
