Overall

R Carlos or Cafu we've never had a decent fullback who can bomb on for 90 minutes and score cracking goals.

Good shout that pal, the formation we play now and the style we have needing a holding midfielder would suit Foe no end.

He would be brilliant, even more so than he was under KK in the current set-up.

The one the only EL REY PELE best player i have ever seen with King Colin a very close second.The EL REY bit was a phrase coined by Huw Johns whilst commentating on the Mexico world cup finals.

Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Mate that is absolute bollox. He did some great runs and goals sure, but other times he was completely anonymous, out on the piss or kicked out of a game by the likes of Ron Harris. maradona in his prime ALWAYS ran the game.

You have been taken in by the RAG publicity machine. Out of that era Jimmy Greaves was a better man.

Agree, he is one of the most overrated players ever. Can't remember him ever having a good game against us.

Zidane.
"Like all bullies, they've just found out that there is a much bigger guy in town, someone who is richer and more powerful than their worst nightmare. And this smiling Arabic assassin is intent on stealing all the treasures they've nicked off everyone else, and pulverising them into commercial and footballing oblivion as he does so."
