Unless the way the game is coached changes, we’ll never see players like this again. Zidane and many others of his generation were allowed to express themselves. This freedom to try things with a ball would be coached out of players today. Football was such a joy to watch

I feel like it may be about to come back ... a little. With how systematic the game has become you need players who can run with the ball and beat players in order to break the opponents structure.

Is Messi or Ronaldo the best player in soccer, but this is the answer.

100% agree mate, the game has completely lost for me what made it special by focusing so much on the information available. If this player played today he would be banished to stands for not running the correct amount of miles in a specific direction.

Maverick players are few and far between nowadays

Nonsense. Zidane is a once in a generation natural born genius. Coaching is irrelevant at his 'top 10 ever' status.

Those were the days when clubs get what they really paid for. You pay for top class you get top class player. Yet the price was called too big back then.

Business has overtaken football, tactics resemble more of an accountants meeting than a group of Gladiators waiting to enter the lions den and the worst part is most asked for it in one way or another and most of the rest have no idea whats going on. Football has been purchased!

These days we get idiots on tv wetting themselves when a player does the basics. These same idiots played at a time when we had R9, Zizou, Giggs, Bergkamp etc

You'll never see a bullet header again! Games Gone.

But can we have such pple today?🤔

I saw someone say KDB is better than Zidane lol 😂😂😂
