At his peak (pre bad knee injuries) the best player I've ever seen is the Brazilian Ronaldo, followed by Messi

Its strange that like most debates of this type Ronaldo of now isnt mentioned. Wonder if its because he is such a cock?

When it comes to Christiano, with reference to the All Time Greats List, he certainly regards himself as being in the Top 1.

He certainly is, it's all about him . Did you see his pus when Bale scored that wonder goal!!! He looked gutted. He was a great player though and deffo in the best 10 ever but v Liverpool he looked slow and on the wane. Originally Posted by shedboy71

If you were to choose any player at their peak then Messi and C Ronaldo would be hard to beat. But Marradona probably was the ultimate in producing in one man teams

It's a tricky question when it comes up because since the era of Pele the game has changed so much. It's hard to know whether Pele in a Brazil team would have outshone Maradona in an Argentinian team of the same era. etc
Messi is the most skilful imo but the greatest overall would have to be the wee fat hand of god columbian marching powder sniffing mental case that is Maradona that left a whole Engerland team trailing in his wake like sleepy donkeys
