The Best of the Best

[GVGjr]

Before during and after the World cup there was a fair bit of talk about who has been the best football/soccer player of all time and I thought I might expand on this.

I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts on the following questions.

Who do you think has been the worlds game best ever footballer?
Who do you think has been the worlds game best ever goal keeper?
Who do you think has been the worlds game best ever football manager?

If you could only pick one of these players who would select?
Kylian Mbappé or Erling Haaland

Now from an Australian perspective

Who do you think has been the best ever Socceroos footballer?
Who do you think has been the best ever Socceroos goal keeper?
Who do you think has been the best ever Socceroos football manager?

Re: The Best of the Best

1. Diego Armando Maradona
2. Peter Schmeichel
3. Sir Alex

Mbappe - he will be the greatest footballer in history by the time he retires.

1. Cahill (Kewell more talented but slightly less consistent)
2. Schwartzer (should have been Bosnich on pure talent)
3. Ange

1. Messi(but Mbappe will take the mantle)
2. Cech. Pretty biased but he was as good as any ive watched and his clean sheet record probs wont get beat.
3. Fergie. Easily the GOAT.

I'd pick Mbappe for the same reason as Sedat.

1. Cahill over Kewell too, longevity wins out.
2. Schwarzer. Didnt look out of place manning the goals in huge UCL games for us.
3. Ange too for me. Hes breaking ground atm and wont be long until hes in the Prem.

Arnold was voted manager of the tournament by french magazine l'équipe which is the top sports journal over there. That's a fair recognition.

Re: The Best of the Best

1. Shola Ameobi
2. Shay Given
3. Jetski Steve Mclaren

Actually

1. CR7, I think his aerial presence just nods him (boom boom). I mean why choose he and Messi are good in different ways. But I'll go hot places cold places.
2. Buffon. Such a character, fair keeper too!
3. Jetski Steve Mclaren. Actually it's hard to go past Ancelotti done it everywhere and 4 x CL.

Best Aussie Viduka or Cahill. I'll go big Viduks as he was at the Toon.
Schwarzer.
Ange.
