who is the best football player i reckon vinnie jones
Vinnie Jones may be the dirtiest football player ever... but certainly not the best... LOL... I say Patrick Vieira is the best football player ever.
-
the obvious response is offcourse Pelé
-
i agree wiv kvb. what about david beckham
-
i agree wiv kvb. what about david beckham
beckham cant be the goat.... specially not when Zidane rips him off anytime... the best still active player is with no doubt, zidane... for those who dont belive, just whait a couple weeks when the world cup starts ... Zidane will outshine everybody. like he did 2, and 4 years ago ...
-
i agree wiv kvb. what about david beckham
David Beckham can't use his left foot, can't use his head on the ball, can't pull a tackle etc... very important skills for any footballer... he is far from a complete player, and do not deserve to be ranked alongside football legends like Pele, Maradona, Puskas etc... pleezbelavit.
O-N-E

yer but wat about wen he scored them amazing goals in the england vs germany last year
-
yer but wat about wen he scored them amazing goals in the england vs germany last year
He takes excellent free kicks and corners... he is probably one of the best players in the world in terms of crossing, passing & shooting... I'm just saying he shouldn't be called the Best Footballer Ever, pz

wats the best match u eva watched ????
-
wats the best match u eva watched ????
thats a difficult question to answer
-
wats the best match u eva watched ????
Probably the France vs. Portugal Euro 2000 semi-final, that game was really exciting.
-
i agree wat about the best pitch invasion
-
Diego Maradona
No explanation needed.
-
the best game ive seen is Brazil - Sweden, Euro-Cup 92' (not world cup 94')
that was some dope shit
-
The 3 best...... PLatini, Maradona, and Pele
-
hmmmm do you all actually watch football ??
-
Best Player Ever - Best
Best Match - Spain 4 - 3 Yugoslavia in Euro 2000
or Man Utd 2 - 1 Arsenal in the Fa Cup Semi Final Replay ;D
Best Pitch Invasion - Villa 2 - 3 United - it was awesome running on to Villa Park and diving around
-
Villa Rules
-
Do you ever watch them? Where are you from?
Villa are a joke
-
u need to get out more
-
Where do you live? I'm from B'ham and as you support Villa I assume you are from there
I need to get out more? You think Vinnie Jones is the best player ever
-
nah i am from london . i supported villa eva since they beat manu at the coco cola cup
-
I bet you regret that one
-
no way is a player like Beckham, Zidane or Figo the best player ever. You have to look back to the old golden days to find the best player ever. Pele, Eusabio, Maradona, George Best
Jack Charlton, Bobby Moore, Jeff Hurst where all very good players also.
-
Jack? - He just kicked people. You mean Bobby
-
yer thats who I meant sorry mr no it all
LOL
-
LoL
I ain't gonna cuss you back cause I'm being nice to you for when Everton play Arsenal
-
its all good its all good
-
its all good its all good
-
The 3 best...... PLatini, Maradona, and Pele
Finally a dude who knows his shit.
Talking about Vinnie Jones & Beckham is bullshit, some of yall is taking the patriotism to new levels.
The 3 mentioned here was among the best, but I think Beckenbauer & Zidane is pretty close.
-
Joe Montana....oops
-
^LOL^^
I dont really pay attention 2 this shit, living in the US..COBE JONES!!!
lol, jk
uh....Ravaldo, however the fuck u spell it
Is he as good as he used 2 b, i heard good things about him
-

Hopefully that's Rivaldo, but it looks close to Ronaldo too.
Rivaldo is among the 3-5 best midfielders today, along with Zidane, Rui Costa & Figo.
-
^^^lol lol lol lol....im not sure which one it is
u kno, the bald guy (or used 2 b) and used 2 (or still does) play 4 brazil
-
^^^lol lol lol lol....im not sure which one it is

Oh, that's Ronaldo, he plays for Inter Milano.
But Rivaldo is almost bald too, lol.
Rivaldo plays for Barcelona, and is considered one of the best midfielders in the world.
Ronaldo used to be considered among the best attackers in the world, but got injured.
But he's back in top form now though.
-
As I said, the name of the best footballer ever is Patrick Vieira.
Period.
-
I dont really rate Viera..Dont get me wrong he is good but I just dont like the way he plays.
-
As I said, the name of the best footballer ever is Patrick Vieira.
Period.
Why hasn't he driven his club onto more titles and cups then?
Is it a coincidence that Viera's worst ever season coincides with one of Arsenal's best ever seasons
-
good point. He has had a poor season.
-

Vieira hasnt had a bad season at all, he held us together when we had, Adams, Keown, Upson, Cole, Dixon, Ljungberg, Edu, Seaman and Wright all injured at the same time, then Lauren and Kanu left for the African nations. Vieira has been vital too our season this year, our league position reflects this, Vieira, Henry, Pires, Campbell and recently Ljungberg have been our best players this year.
-

hes not even the best soccer player in the world? Why would u pick him as the best of all time? Pick players like Maradona, PLatini, or Pele
-

Then go ahead... tell me his weakness. ;)
-

That is ridicolous... take a look at Arsenal's record (since Vieira arrived):
97/98 - Double champions
98/99 - 2nd in league - Semifinal in the FA Cup
99/00 - 2nd in league - UEFA Cup finalist
00/01 - 2nd in league - FA Cup finalist - Quarter final in the Champions league
01/02 - DOUBLE CHAMPIONS again... pleezbelavit ;)
Vieira has been a first time regular in the majority of games in all those seasons... man just look at Arsenal's record.
-

I seen a lot of games involving those players... what's funny is that I still regard Vieira #1.

Ho Ho Ho
Since Roy Keane joined United their record has been
93 - 94 - League Champions + FA Cup Winners
94 - 95 - League Runners up + FA Cup runners up
95 - 96 - League Champions + FA Cup Winners
96 - 97 - League Champions + European Cup Semi Finalists
97 - 98 - Keane injured for whole season (guess what) United won nothing
98 - 99 ;D - League Champions + FA Cup Winners + European Cup Winners
99 - 00 - League Champions + World Club Cup winners
00 - 01 - League Champions
01 - 02 - European Cup Semi Finalists + League Champions or runners up
Best in the world undoubtedly

I aknowledge Man. United's impressive accomplishments... I still think Vieira is the better player though... Vieira is the better offensive player... plus he don't need to kick or hit every opposing player who has tackled/damaged him during a game... ;D
-
Goalscoring Records before this season
Keane
48 Goals in 327 Games for Nottm Forest and Man Utd
Viera
16 Goals in 209 Games for Cannes, AC Milan and Arsenal
They're even going forward, or maybe Keane is better
Did you see his Goal against Leverkusen? He just drives the team forward
-
And also both of them have very similar disciplinary records
-
And also both of them have very similar disciplinary records
I bet that is about true... but at least Vieira can control his temper... which cannot be said about Keane.
-
I think I wud wip the floor clean with both of them.
-
I think Keane can now
He's only been sent of once this season
lol
Hey I still can't believe that the first guy on this thread said Vinnie Jones lol
-
lol i no yer

I Aint Commentin On Best Player - Very Hard To Pick One
But The Best Match Ive Ever Seen - NO Bullshit - If You Were There/Saw It You'd Know Why
The Endsleigh Division One Playoff Final In 95
Bolton Wanderers Vs. Reading - We Were Getting Hammered 2-0 And In Something Like The 30th Minute We Then Gave Away A Penalty.....Branaghan Saved And Out Of No Where Came This Incredible Onslaught On Reading..
Final Score - Bolton (4) : Reading (3)
And Had You Been A Fan And Sat Watchin Bolton Languishing In The 3rd Division 3 Years Earlier,Then Watched Them Do A League A Season The Feeling Was Incredible - The Goal Accomlished
Best Match Ive Ever Seen......
peace
-
Yeah I remember that
Reading were 2 -0 up and they missed a penalty to go 3 - 0 up
Lucky lucky Bolton
lol
Rud have you seen my message on the ticker?

Oh And Lucky?!? - They Didnt Miss - Did You Not See Branaghans Save?!
Phenomenal :o

LMAO @ KVB for naming Vieira as best Footballer ever.
I can even name at least 5 midfielders TODAY, that's OBVIOUSLY better than him. And not to mention attackers & defenders.
Midfielders that's better than Vieira playing today:
Rivaldo
Rui Costa
Zidane
Figo
Zahovic
I bet I could name 5 more if I was trying.
-
Midfielders that's better than Vieira playing today:
Rivaldo
Rui Costa
Zidane
Figo
Zahovic
The players you mentioned are all offensive midfielders/attackers... you cannot name any midfelder who is better than Vieira offensively AND defensively... he's simply the best midfielder in the world today.
-

Rivaldo
Rui Costa
Zidane
Figo
Zahovic
Are you fucking kidding me?
ZAHOVIC!!!!!
RUI COSTA!!!!!
I don't normally agree with KVB but Viera is far more important and influential than Costa, Zahovic, Rivaldo and Figo.
Maybe Zidane is better, but Viera is in adifferent league to the others.
And Keane is the best midfielder in the world
It's not all about fancy tricks
-
yo, ive seen Vieira playin week in week out (almost) now for five years, and the guy is amazing, he is so consistent and just stands out head and shoulders above every1 on the pitch.
as for keane (dirty evil irish prick ;D) vieira has outclassed him everytime they have played (obviously not the 6-1, but that is put down to steponovs,luzhny and grimandi)
but the most skillful player i have seen live is zidane, amazing, different class, but different player to vieira.
but my dad tells me the best palyer he has ever seen is johan cruyff
best player this season is PIRES, hands down.
-
my dad tells me the best palyer he has ever seen is johan cruyff
And Cruyff played for Man Utd
-
And Cruyff played for Man Utd
you are jokin right?
-
Are you fucking kidding me?
ZAHOVIC!!!!!
RUI COSTA!!!!!
Yea, that's rite.
I bet you haven't seen them much in action if you make statements like this.
You guys are killing me.
Vieira & Keane the best midfielders in the world?
What's next? Petit?
And BTW, Vieira is better than Keane, even if I hate Aresnal.
Yall need to take a look outside U.K.
And add another one to my list:
Totti
-
Totti's not considered a midfielder
And Cruyff did play for Man Utd
-
And Cruyff did play for Man Utd
lol, you mean is son yordi, he played for man u and was shit. his dad was a world class player that played in the great ajax and holland teams of the 70s ::)
-

LMAO true true true... JORDI Cryuff played for Man U. (and sucked dick), not the legendary JOHAN Cryuff... lol
-
Guys you're acting like I didn't know that
lol
stupid Arsenal fans
-
Totti's not considered a midfielder
And Cruyff did play for Man Utd
Wtf?
Is this sarcasm too?
Jordi Cruyff played for Man. U, NOT Johan the LEGEND.
Totti IS CONSIDERED A MIDFIELDER !!!!!
With these statements, you just lost a ton of credibility.
-
Vieira & Keane the best midfielders in the world?
What's next? Petit?
Please tell me about Vieira's weaknesses.
BTW, Emmanuel Petit is also an excellent player.

HaHa funny shit
I WAS BEING SAARCASTIC ABOUT JORDI CRUYFF (who now lays for Alaves)
Do you honestly think I don't know who Johan Cruyff is?
And look at the Italian world cup squad - Totti will be listed as a forward not a midfielder
He lines up alongside Montella, or just behind him
Who lost credibility? YOU SAID ZAHOVIC - (yes Zlatko Zahovic - who never made the first team at Valencia) WAS BETTER THAN VIERA
So don't come talking to me about credibility
-
Please tell me about Vieira's weaknesses.
BTW, Emmanuel Petit is also an excellent player.
Vieiras weaknesses:
Not among the fastest.
Has a tendency to be invisible from time to time.
Bad temper, known to be sent-off too much.
Attacking will is sometimes lacking.
Seemingly some thinks he's a bad team-player (big ego), but this I cant confirm.
Seems unmotivated at times.
These are all weaknesses about him, dont even bother to deny it, but I wont disagree that he's probably the best midfielder in England. Worldclass too, but the best? Hell nah.
Petit is also a good player, but why did first Tottenham say to him: "Yo, take the taxi to Highbury", and then Arsenal eventually got rid of him?
There's something about him that makes the clubs reject him all the time.

There was absolutely nothing that showed that you were being sarcastic.
He lines up alongside Montella, or just behind him \/
Yea, that's rite: AS A ATTACKING MIDFIELDER !!!!
Ans so what If Zahovic plays the bench?
Genius has been misunderstood before eh??
How about the lost cause Kinkladze?
Once one of the best midfielders, now degraded to the bench.
And we all know the judgement of the management at Valencia, dont we?
Who bought fucking John Carew for WAY TOO MUCH money.
-
Can you tell me Keane's weaknesses?
-
My understanding of an attacking midfielder is someone who plays in midfield and goes forward
Totti plays between the midfield and strikers as a link man
I feel insulted that you think I didn't know who Johan Cruyff is
-
Can you tell me Keane's weaknesses?
Easy:
Also not among the fastest, in fact far from.
Has also a tendency to be invisible from time to time.
Extremely bad temper, revengeful dude. Gets sent off all the time.
Attacking will is often nowhere to be seen.
Not always the best team-player (very big ego)
Seems unmotivated at times.
Having big trouble if he meets technical players.
Much of the same as Vieira, but they're pretty similar in their style.
-

Totti plays between the midfield and strikers as a link man AKA Attacking midfielder!!
The expression "Defensive Attacker/Striker" does not exist.
I feel insulted that you think I didn't know who Johan Cruyff is \/
You even confirmed it, without any sign of sarcasm.
Add a :P or a ::) next time, to show that you're being sarcastic.

Not the fastest - agreed
Tendency to be invisible - Rubbish
Bad temper - Agreed
Attackin will nowhere to be seen - Did you see the Leverkusen match (when everyone around him has given up, Keane never does)
Not the best team player - crap, the ultimate team player
Seems unmotivated - WHAT?????
Big trouble with technical players - Doesn't matter, he can just kick them
I TURN YOUR ATTENTION TO THE 1999 EUROPEAN CUP SEMI FINAL IN TURIN, AGAINST JUVENTUS
At 2 - 0 down, Keane's performance is the greatest in the history of football
-
Vieiras weaknesses:
Not among the fastest. - Vieira can't compete with Owen and Henty in terms of pace, but he runs in a fast tempo... lol this is NOT a weakness... FALSE
Has a tendency to be invisible from time to time. - Can't relate to this... Vieira is never invisible in any game, he controls the midfield area with his awesome skills... FALSE
Bad temper, known to be sent-off too much. - This has as much to do with racism in England amongst referees as Vieira himself... fair enough he pulls off some dirty tackles now and then, but his discipline has improved, and he never lose his temper anymore. Even when Dennis Wise shouts "Nigga, fucker, bitch etc..." he won't lose his mind... FALSE
Attacking will is sometimes lacking. - NO. Vieira is 100 % determined to play in every Arsenal game... you could rightfully claim that Petit's attacking will, or PLAYING will for that matter is/was lacking sometimes... but this is not the case about Vieira... FALSE
Seemingly some thinks he's a bad team-player (big ego), but this I cant confirm. - This has to be one of the most ridicolous statements I've ever read... FALSE
Seems unmotivated at times. - Never seen, heard or read about an Arsenal game with an unmotivated Vieira on the pitch... FALSE
-
Arggghhh
I said Cruyff played for Man Utd - that statement is true
I said it to wind people up but you misunderstood it
-
I will be back to prove yall wrong in a few hours ;D
-
Difference between Viera and Keane is:
Keane will die for United
Viera wants to leave Arsenal
But you know what KVB?! WE'RE GONNA FIND OUT TOMORROW!!!!
I CAN'T FUCKING WAIT!!!!
Viera vs Keane!
