When Messi has his own film then he can be considered the same level.

(Of course this is a joke, Zidane > *)

Amazing film, sit back few beers and chill

If Messi had one it would be all action, speed, explosions.

Zidane's style also came about from his lack of stamina. He couldn't spend a whole game chasing through balls and dribbling.

Very good player though; headbutt aside.

cheets64 · 29 Mar 2011 at 14:49

Probably because he smokes.

You dont need pace to be a world class player.

Not sure if serious but if you are then i suggest you go and do some reading on Pele fella...as great as Zidane is....Pele was a class above everyone else who has ever played football at club or international level.

What are you talking about, you quoted a guy that listed players that never won a world cup then stated "Dont forget Pele too..." hence my sarcastic reply.

Go back to being an armchair football fan and shopping with the girlfriend on match days, your knowledge of football is shocking.

G|mp · 29 Mar 2011 at 15:58

Your knowledge is second to none cheets

Zidane is in the league of very few footballers who are generation-defining.

His retirement effectively ended an era of football, as was the case with Pele, Maradona etc.

Ryan Giggs is another player I'll be sad to see retire

I agree. Zidane also has very high words of praise for Gerrard.

G|mp · 29 Mar 2011 at 23:10

Zidane's a bit of a **** for praising footballers tbh, he's said the same about Paul Scholes for years.

Bucket · 29 Mar 2011 at 23:15

Everyone loves Paul Scholes though.

Good thread on RedCafe atm with all the quotes from everyone about how Scholes is the best and their hero etc. From Xavi and the like.
