Relling Posted March 21, 2019 Posted March 21, 2019 Passionate player. I like old school centre halves. (Concidered Tony Adams) And I am partial to the toffees.

Scotland: Colin Hendry(Massively underrated central defender who was solid as a rock and as humble as they come) Republic of Ireland: Damien Duff(Absolute joy to watch in his hayday) France: Thierry Henry(from his Arsenal days) Italy: Roberto Baggio(His greatness status isn't as high as it should be. An all-time great.) Spain: Carles Puyol(The game no longer has defenders like him. The last of his kind.) Germany: Oliver Kahn(The best keeper I've ever seen.) Holland: Johan Cruijff(don't give a fuck if he's from before my time, absolute legend of the sport in every sense.) Portugal: Deco(doesn't get enough credit, he was excellent and @ASF will agree with this. It's a shame he wasn't in his prime during Portugal's euro win.) Denmark: Michael Laudrup(he could have gone down as being much greater than he was if not for his inconsistencies, but incredibly talented either way.) Turkey: Tugay(how every big club in Europe weren't in for him is one of life's mysteries, but all the better as it was a pleasure to watch him at Rovers.) Brazil: Rivaldo(The most "explosive" player I've ever witnessed. A true Brazilian superstar who had a lengthy career) Argentina: Lionel Messi(The greatest to have played the game. A player who can't be described by words.) Colombia: Rene Higuita(No keeper has ever been as crazy and unpredictable as him.) USA: Brad Friedel(One of the most reliable keepers to have played in the Premier League.) I don't have favourite players from the rest. I rate plenty of course(some very highly), but don't necessarily see them as being "favourite" players. Not even Emerton?

It was Lucas Neill once upon a time. You can't forget Robbie Slater either mate I'd also say Rafa Marquez for Mexico and Hazard for Belgium.

It's really random because I've not frequently seen him play, he's one of these I've just come across and he looks seriously talented. I'll throw Yassine Chikaoui into Tunisia's list as well. Similar circumstances.

Carnivore Chris Posted March 22, 2019 Posted March 22, 2019 Mexico: Rafa Marquez Australia: Bret Emerton Cameroon: Samuel Eto'o South Africa: Benni Mccarthy Belgium: Kevin De Bruyne I also forgot about Carlos Valderrama up there. I'd probably put him over Rene Higuita for Colombia, although it's a difficult one as I loved both of those 2.

He's a legend for us though, so he remains my favourite German player. Markus Babbel was up there in contention as well, but I decided to give it to Didi instead because he scored a penalty for us in a CL final with a broken foot. Babbel was one of the best right backs I'd ever seen play for us up until his awful illness, sad how his career kind of suddenly faded because of it.
Guest Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 Chilavert is another one who is an insufferable cunt of a pundit. He's basically Paraguay's Maradona in that sense. He's screwed over so many National Team managers with his comments alone. I remember a few years ago for the Copa America, Univision would gather country legends as pundits. Arango for Venezuela, Zamorano for Chile, Chilavert for Paraguay. He was sacked after about 2 games cos he would constantly insult the manager (Ramon Diaz at the time) on TV
