The best players at the moment are:
1. Thierry Henry
2. Ronaldinho
3. Steven Gerrard
4. Zinedine Zidane
IMO

Arjan Robben is da man at the moment... If he isn't injured.
Craterus 20:22 04-05-2005
Can't say I'm a huge fan of Arjen Robben but he has brought something new to Chelsea and they play worse without him.

Agrees with
Ellesthyan!!!
Best ever?
Franco Zola, Peter Bonettie, Peter Osgood, Kerry Dixon, David Speedie, John Spencer, Ron 'Chopper' Harris, Frankie Lampard, John Terry,
Anyone see the theam?
Seriously, Id have to go
Pele (Legend) ,
Marco van Basten (With Gullit and Reikaard {sp?} they were the most formidable forward line in the world),
Lothar Mattheus (150 Caps is some achivement!)
Paulo Maldini, Jurgen Klinsmann, Mattheus Sammer, Hiristo Stoichkov, Gary Lineker, Gordon Banks, the Charltons, Dixie Dean, Bobby Moore, Stanley Matthews, Eusebeo, Zico, Romario, Socraties, just to name a few true greats. There are so many its difficult to choose who is the best ever.....

I still think Roy Makaay ( Bayern Munich ) is a great soccer player.
every ball he touches results in a goal
to bad he hasn't played in a while ( hamstring or achilles (sp) injury )

personnaly I wanted Chelsea to lose...
I like chelsea, and most of the players for that matter... I'm just not really a Mourinho ( sp) fan, he always wants his head on the front page of every newspaper and will do everything to do so..
King Edward 15:26 04-08-2005
I'd rather Mourinho was on the front page taking flack than the players. Takes a lot of the pressure away from them. I think is partially intentional the way he acts.
Just look at Chelsea, they should be the side with the most pressure on them with the amount of cash they have splashed and yet they play as a solid unit that has taken the premiership in their stride.
I can see how Mourinho rubs people up the wrong way but there is no arguing his ability as a coach, although i am somewhat bias.....

well you are right, he is a good coach ( FC Porto now Chelsea ) but still I think he sometimes actes a little to arrogant for my liking, I mean he was all over the news because he acused Rijkaard ( Barcalona ) for ''bribing'' the referee, who then went out of the business because people threatend to kill him..
And as I said before I do respect what he did for the teams he coached, but I do still thing he should improve his attitude a little
King Edward 15:54 04-08-2005
I'll post a link that shows that he was infact right that Rijkaard tried to influence Frisk.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/foot...ea/4420769.stm
He is not stupid to make this stuff up, I Belive it was turned into a bit of a Witch hunt by the UK media and various individuals at Uefa aginst Chelsea and particulary Moriniho, but as i mentioned before, all this took all the heat of the Chelsea players as people seem to have forgotten that we actually lost that match!
Im not going to hide it, Chelsea are Arrogant, but while they continue to produce the goods on the pitch, there is not a lot people can do about it!
What i will condem is the idiots who give Chelsea and football in general a bad name by sending death threats to an offical who at the end of the day is only Human and is going to make mistakes. I hope in due time Mr Frisk reconsiders his retirement as I have always rated him as a referee.

well I read the article , and he indeed talked to him, but to believe that he actually ''bribed '' him ? wel we will probably never now, Rijkaard will certainley not admit it.
and yes it had been turned into a witch hunt, by every news paper around the world.
PS.. I actually did forget that Chelsea lost that match...
King Edward 17:35 04-08-2005
I dont think Chelsea ever clamed frisk was bribed, just 'Influenced' by Rijkaard.
I have to say(and i do hate Chelsea) they played excellent the other night and lampard's strike was incredible. The cheating ballack at the end made my stomach churn with that dive. I hope Chelsea smash them all over the place in Germany. As long as you keep Kezman on the bench and drop droghba to ball boy you'll be alright.
Those fellas couldn't hit a cows arse with a barn door
King Edward 18:39 04-08-2005
Draogba has weighed in with a fair few goals but id like to see Shevchenko in a blue shirt, or even Owen, I think he would fit in with Chelsea's style of play.
Dutch_guy 19:06 04-08-2005
getting Shevchenko won't be easy, what is that guy worth anyway ?
not that Chelsea can't offord it though,with the helping hand of a biljonair.
can't blame Abrahmovic though, if I had that kind of money, I would also finance a major team.

By the time his playing days are over he will be. Its unfortunate on his part he doesnt play for someone like italy or brazil as he doesnt get the international recognition he deserves playing for the Ukraine but he is one of the best all round forwards of this generation of footballers.

Not in my opinion
King Edward 01:20 04-10-2005
Watch the boy play! anyone who can net like he can in the toughest defensive league in the world is a top class striker.
IrishMike 05:08 04-10-2005
Well I would like to say that I'm the best back defender in the world, sadly I don't think I could honestly claim that title. Over all I would say Pele, the changes he made with his explosive, flashy moves changed the whole offensive scene of the game.
wipeout140 09:24 04-10-2005
I have one question for the people call it "Soccer" why????
ITS FOOTBALL -
And thats final in my views
IrishMike 17:26 04-10-2005
Soccer is the US term because we already have one type of football here. Imagine how confusing it would be to say lets go to the football game and not know which one they were talking about.
wipeout140 20:11 04-10-2005
fair enough but when i just think "soccer" i think americans
tibilicus 21:10 04-10-2005
Is american football like what we call rugby except its routher and tougher?
wipeout140 21:13 04-10-2005
Basily yes it is Its Rugby cross by football
King Edward 21:16 04-10-2005
Rugby is pretty rough and tough as my newly torn thigh muscle will testify to. we didnt even win!!
wipeout140 21:19 04-10-2005
Rugby is rough as american football
ColdKnight if you going to watch american football you could say that
and if going to see football you could say football

ShadesPanther 22:06 04-10-2005
