blairdin Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Zidane for me. When I was inter-railing in 2001 I spent a few days in Madrid. I watched Real destroy Espanyol 5-1. Raul and that scouse lad both played, it was an awesome match. Best player I've seen in Scotland is Larrson by a country mile. Followed by our own Craig Gordon, Gascoigne and Laudrop.

Gigolo-Aunt Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Why? It was played at a friendly pace. The ability of the Barcalona players were there for all to see, joy to watch- just feel that to justify an inclusion on this it would need for me to have seen the players with a man right on them and not being affraid to mix it. Some brilliant players, but I dont think you got the full picture because of the meaning of the game. If that makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therapist Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 You used to be a Scotland supporter Therapist? Yes. I was until Jhock Stein came in and tried to make us play a European style passing game that we weren't equipped for. That was the death-knell for the Scottish international football team. Lack of success on the park meant kids lost interest which meant there was no new talent coming through. The advent of the diddies in the Tartan Army was a big turn off too. Did you ever wear a kilt? Kilts look smart on the right occasion. But never at a football match when its worn with a Scotland top/Jacobean shirt/ridiculous jacket/glengarry/Adidas Sambas/Timberland boots*. * Delete as appropriate.

Deevers Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 saw Dave Mackay play for Hearts, Tottenham and Derby - an awesome player and the toughest tackler I've ever seen.

N User Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I've seen many players that are certainly some of the top around but the best individual performance i've seen has to be from Damien Duff at Blackburn. He destroyed Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Therapist Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 He destroyed Arsenal. I take it you've not been to many games then. With all due respect, the feat you mention is not difficult.

portobellojambo1 Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 Difficult to say really, I have seen Pele live, Maradona live, Beckenbauer live, George Best live (and young), Jim Baxter live, Johan Cruyff live etc. etc., bit spolied for choice really. Each had something different, but if pushed I would have to say Diego Maradona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosanostra Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 I saw Zidane v Scotland at Hampden when we got pumped 3 or 4 nil in a friendly, might have been Pressley's first cap. Also went to a 1-1 Real Madrid v Barca game at the Bernabeu in about 2002 and saw him that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought Jock Stein was meant to be a good manager. He seems to be held in high regard by most people. I'm not a big fan of the tartan army though. They are relentlessly annoying and i can't be bothered with booing other countries national anthems and urinating in people's gardens etc I'm a massive Scotland fan but not part of the tartan army.

Jack Kelsey served me once when he managed the old Arsenal club shop, he was getting on a bit, but I'm not old enough to have seen him in action. Johan Cruyff (see I'm quite old though), closely followed by Liam Brady and Marco van Basten. Hmm ...
