billy2shots Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Bit of Friday fun. Who are the best XI you have seen play football live in the flesh. It has to be some kind of formation so no 10 striker formations please. GK Buffon CB Tony Adams CB Fabio Cannavaro CB Lilian Thuram CM Patrick Viera CM Andra Pirlo CM Zidane CF Del Piero CF Totti CF Shearer CF Thierry Henry We may concede a few! What's yours?

NewNiceMrMe Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 (edited) Okay, well I've not been for quite a long time but....GK SchmeichelCB Gary NevilleCB Lothar MatthausCB Paolo MaldiniCB Roberto CarlosCM Roy KeaneCM Zinedine ZidaneCM Paul ScholesCM Diego Maradona (and still the best player I have ever seen)CF Ronaldo (Portugal)CF Marco Van BastenI was lucky enough to see quite a few of these in United's early days in the Champions League and also via Euro 96 in some cases.I should add that I would have loved to put the Brazilian Ronaldo in there too, but I do believe that the current Ronaldo is far better and could be on track to become the worlds best ever if he continues. I think he's far better than Messi now. p.s. I should really have George Best in there. I saw him play 2 games but I was very young. I think he'd have easily made the list in retrospect but I won't change it now. For anyone who questions why I have got Gary Neville in there, I think he was the best in the world for 3-4 years and a vastly under-rated player who did a superb job of marshalling the entire defence. On goalkeepers, I think Schmeichel is the best ever. Edited January 16, 2015 by NewNiceMrMe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 I have never been to a football match. Ever. Useless fact of the day, and the thread probably. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
