Once and for all, who is the best soccer player of all time(poll)

[RichCCFC]

Shevchencko and Gerrard lmao

[sukhenkoy]

Probably Joe Cole.

Gerrard said he can do amazing things with a golf ball. Anything Messi can do, Joe Cole does better.

[slimshandy69]

messi best ever...

[Carlos-El_indio]

You've got Cristiano Ronaldo there but no Johan Cruyff?

Christiano>Cruyff, he was faster, stronger, more skilful, scored more(as a winger) with way more assists, better at set plays, IMO even better at heading the ball

[Unknown Champ]

Landon Donovan!!! USA! USA! USA!

[UTEP]

Mia Hamm..... and it ain't even close.

[zapdos]

Dailion akinson for villa in the 90's was somewhat upstoppable.

I think nicky butt deserves a mentioned.

Give it a few seasons, barry bannan might be something, they way he drooooove scotland to a win over the 3rd in the world croatia was immense.
