I say all this without the Chelsea Bias. Ive seen him play loads, Heard what ex players (played with and against) and teammates (both and club and country) have said about him as well as coaches and pundits. He had everything to his game except for pace which he has never needed due to how well he reads the game.Originally Posted by plague

oh bravo sir.
Didn't win a thing in Europe between them
Thanks to Wayne Bridge and Chelsea, Remember it well
I would just genuinely love to see this team together, and see anyone stop them tbh. Absoute mayhem all round.
-----------------Buffon-----------------------
Lahm--Cannavaro--Maldini--Roberto Carlos
------------Vieira----Keane------------------
----------------Zidane------------------------
C.Ronaldo------Ibrahimovic--------Henry
OK
Better hope no one posts their 'All Time Rainy Midweek Night at Stoke XI'
Actually looking at in the cold light of day I thinking I need to put someone in
I can't believe I missed him but
Griff is in
Desailly out and I going to 4-2-4
All of these teams inc mine are irrelevant because they don't have Ivan Franjic at RB.
OK
How young are you blokes.
Two words: Gary Lineker. Rooney is the only one that comes close to him in the last 40 years.
Shearer is nowhere near the class of Rooney, nor is he as versatile as Rooney either. [And I'm a big Shearer fan].

Of course Rooney is more versatile in that he has played in a number of roles during his career and Shearer just played as a Striker
Being that Rooney played at Man U for the bulk of his career he was more or less in successful sides fighting for trophies every year well at least to Fergie retired
Lol
Shearer on the other hand only spent limited time when Plastic Rovers and Newcastle we're at the top of the tree
If he had of went to Man U when he went to Plastic Rovers he would have had another 50-100 EPL goals to his name
Other thing to note forget with him is he done his ACL at about 23 so who knows how much that slowed him up in his prime of his career
Fat Ronaldo still win a WC but he was never the same player after he done his knees at Inter
The year he spent at Barca he was phenomenal
What about blokes like maradona, Gullit, van basten, boniek, redondo, raul, djorkaef, (however it is spelt) hierro, amaros, or they going back too far

Criteria was who you had seen
I left most of those blokes out as most of my memory from them is from highlight reels rather than having watched them regularly enough
I have seen all those guys plus I left out Platini. The more I think about this the harder it is.
Buffon
D. Alves - Pique - Vidic - Marcelo
Busquets
Iniesta - Modric
Messi - Zlatan - Henry
Too many names you could use, just whacked together some players I like in their positions.
