  • I'd be interested in knowing where people saw some of these people, like Lahm, Cannabaro, etc. Was it England internationals or do we have a lot of globe trotters here on CL?

    Ground hopping plus international friendlies in London have helped eg Italy v Brazil at Arsenal. I wouldn't otherwise have seen Cannavaro.

    Mine are from having a season ticket at Real Madrid. I've just given it up and brought one in block A of the East Stand.
  • I saw Brazil play once

    I nearly put them in...I couldn't decide between Zidane / Stephens and Henry / Kermorgant. I went for Henry and Zidane as their names were shorter.

  • Based on players I have seen playing in the flesh (ie not on telly)

    1. Gordon Banks (Stoke City)
    2. Ron Harris (Chelsea)
    3. Frank Lampard snr (West Ham)
    4. Billy Bonds (West Ham)
    5. Richard Rufus (CAFC)
    6. Bobby Moore (West Ham and England) Pure 100% class.
    7. Claus Jensen (CAFC) or Fatty Reid (Nottingham Forest)
    8. Thiery Henri (Arsenal) Even when defenders knew what he was going to do they still couldn't stop him
    9. Derek Hales (CAFC) Never saw him miss.
    10 Dennis Bergkamp (Arsenal and The Netherlands) saw him score that goal in Marseille v Argentina at France 98)
    11.Gianfranco Zola (Chelsea)

    Best two team performances I have seen at the Valley were Brighton and Hove Albion under Poyet in our first season in league 1 and Arsenal and Henri under Wenger in the Premiership (not sure which year). One of the few times it is almost a perverse and exquisite pain watching your own team being torn apart by a team so much better.

  • 6. Bobby Moore (West Ham and England) Pure 100% class.

    Could not agree more - in my opinion the greatest English footballer of all time and the greatest defender of any nationality of all time.
