Best players of the decade

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

I stopped reading at 'Lampard'

 

ok - it does say 6 OF the best.....but all the same...

[muleskinner]

Given the title of the piece, you can't have any argument. The best 6 would be a different matter entirely although you could make a convincing argument that 3 of them would be in it.

Bit of a pointless article in that respect

Filler doesn't begin to describe it.

[Rory Fitzgerald]

I thought it would be limited to the Premiership. I'm sure Xavi and Iniesta are cracking up at his inclusion.

[Maldini]

I can think of about 20 who I'd pick before Lampard, Casillas and Makelele

Casillas is the Spanish Shay Given. Makes a mistake every couple of weeks but people forget it when he makes a last ditch save

It's the end of the year and, even worse, the end of the decade. Time to settle into lists, lists and more lists.

 

Personally, after seeing the thread on our team of the decade, I'd had more than enough of this game!

Reina is better than Buffon.

[Falconhoof]

Reina is better than Buffon.

 

you beat me to it. Over the last 5 years certainly. Buffon made his reputation earlier though.

[Hassony]

Reina is better than Buffon.

 

He is now, but Buffon has been the best over the last 10 years

[Rory Fitzgerald]

Zidane

Messi

Ronaldo

Cannavaro

Nedved

Gerrard

 

Personally I think Ronaldinho has to miss out because his performances were limited to about 2-3 years which is a huge shame because he was magnificent in those years.

 

Could be a shout for Raul as well
