In my time watching football, I'd say Zidane.

Cristiano's goal record puts him very close to winning it though, I must say.

I would also put Franco Baresi in the frame but its rare defenders are mentioned.

Of the current generation Ronaldo ,he has to do the business for a few more years to be an all time great.
Best had the most natural talent but was just about finished at 26 , so for me rules him out has the all time great.

Why's Bobby Charlton on the list? Not even England's finest let alone Europe's. The original poster's had a bit of a nightmare with his selections!!

I think the question refers to the best european born player, Di Stefano was truly world class and if not mistaken he played international football for both Argentina and Spain.

Haha, what a ridiculous post. CCU liked it aswell.

Did it not cross your mind the fact that the 3 best players of all time weren't on the original list that it may have been best European player the OP was referring to?

You are quite correct he did play for both but the fact he was born in Argentina and played for Argentina makes him South American in my eyes. I had this conversation yesterday with another boarder and some interesting points arose. Diego Costa has similar nationality circumstances to Di Stefano and I wouldn't class him as a European footballer either.

And?

Its what the post says and nor what your interpretation is.
Any way I think Di Stefano was a better player than Messi.
