One of my school's sports teachers. He never ran a day in his life, but bro this guy apparently could do anything in his prime. The stories he'd tell, I mean I can't confirm it, but I have it on his authority that back in his day he could do everything we did but a lot better.... He often showed us his incredible ability by blowing the whistle telling us to do a lap of the pitch in the rain whilst he in his rain coat sipped on coffee. That tekkers tho?

I score a volley, he scored 25 billion outside the box with his left hip. I do a few step overs, he Cruyff turned the entire opposition team. We won a cup, he was the undisputed football champion of the universe etc :/

Tim Howard never fails to impress.
No such thing. Impossible to compare different eras.

I don't know if he was the greatest, but Zidane was certainly the most watchable footballer I've ever seen. Really graceful.

Messi just dodges between players like they're tax returns. Effective yes, but there's something almost too perfect, too mechanical about it. Zidane was a true artist

Most TSR users are too young to remember Maradona, but I definitely recommend watching a fair bit of Maradona footage, in my opinion he was an upgraded version of Messi.
