Best player you've seen live?

For me had to be Messi against Celtic a few years ago absolutly ripped us

Cristiano Ronaldo.

Ronaldinho against Rangers in a friendly at Ibrox. Sasa had him on his back pocket

Thierry Henry

Any particular games Kyro/Theo?

Leeds at home in the 5 - 0 one

Matty Burrows




:troll2:

Portsmouth, beast mode.

Best player overall? In retrospect probably Messi when Argetina played vs. USA in Jersey, although Messi was shut down by Jonathan Bornstein that night

Seen a lot of great players though, Ronaldo (both), Ronaldinho, Kaka, Henry, Beckham. Lucky me.

Oh too many to mention, I've seen them all to be honest. Messi, Ronaldo, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Xavi, Iniesta, Totti, Gerrard, Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Henry, Villa. The list goes on...

Though a good question would be, who's best player and whats the best live performance, you've seen from a player playing against you?

I guessed I should have worded this better, I meant more like best preformance from a player

Messi/Ronaldinho/Xabi Alonso/Eto'o/Agger/Kuyt

...and Peter Crouch when he was with Liverpool.

Seen Barca, Liverpool and Man United live before.


EDIT: nevermind.

That's harder for me, most of the times I've seen these players have been in friendlies.

Remember one great performance by Ronaldo in La Liga vs. Athletic in... 2004?? Can't remember the exact date, think he got a double.

Steven Gerrard
Rio Ferdinand
Frank Lampard
Iker Cassilas
Sergio Ramos
Carles Puyol
David Villa
David Silva
Fernando Torres
Xavi
Andres Iniesta
John Terry
Rafael Van der Vaart
Luis Figo
Rivaldo
Lee Camp

David Beckham, Edgar Davids, Shane Smeltz, Kosta Barbarouses, Matt McKay, Michael Theokilitos (Yeah we don't get much football in Auckland)

Is this the thread where you lie about what players you've seen live?

kaka against palermo

Bold players = seen them in an England v Spain game, 2007
Italic Players = seen them in England U21's v Holland U21's in 2001
Underlined players = seen them in Derby v Barcelona friendly in 1998
Red = seen in a Forest v Newcastle friendly in 2003 I think it was
Green = seen in a Forest v Ajax friendly in 2004


Seen Xavi for Spain in 2007 and Barcelona in 1998, and seen Van der Vaart for Holland U21's in 2001, and Ajax in 2004

Who's the liar? This will be intresting or will Scotty be a shithouse and sit on the fence and not name any names?

The best player I've seen play live is Messi probably.

But the best single performance I've seen live was Gaizka Mendieta for Valencia against Rangers around about 2000. It was my first ever European game and he ran the midfield on his own. Benzima was another class performance against Rangers for Lyon, but I wasn't at that game.

Don't get to many international games, so at that level it's probably someone like Luka Modric.

Best single performance I can think of would probably have to be DJ Campbell in the Play Offs in May. Absolutely killed us. Got a hattrick

Really?

'' Is this the thread where you lie about what players you've seen live? ''

Intresting.

Very.

What I'm curious about though, is your change of attitude towards me tonight, what gives?

Don't see a reason to lie about players you've seen live, through international games, regular games, friendlies, and for some, games seen on vacation, it's not hard to rack up an impressive amount of footballers seen.

Luke lies about going to watch Chelsea.

Luke is a ginger though.

The player I've most enjoyed watching live is Xabi Alonso.

I expected better dena

I've only ever been to Celtic vs Rangers, Dunfermline, Aberdeen, and Falkirk.

It would have to be Henrik Larsson. Scored twice in the Dunfermline game to win us the Scottish Cup 3-1.
