Reply With QuoteQuite right. A truly brilliant player. Although I'm a tad too young to remember him in his prime, my dad rated him on a level he holds for few others. What really makes me laugh nowadays is how we need to "protect" the talented players like that United kid from tackles (how dare they!). Watch the kind of abuse that Eusebio, Best, Maradona, Pele, Di Stefano and others used to get. They were the greatest of all-time in a time when the players and the style was far tougher. That is why, for me, Messi and Ronaldo will never compare. They've got it too easy!
