So many things made Zidane special. CR7 and Messi are great players, generational players even, and we’re lucky to have witnessed them, but Zidane was something else. Leadership wise alone, he made even Anelka fall in line. On top of being a great general, he was the most clutch player of all time. He had a huge impact in big decisive games, especially in finals. His mental focus was insane. He made big plays in big games, while toying with defenders like a puppeteer. I don’t care what the stats say, I’ve been watching soccer for 30 years, and no player made me love soccer more than ZZ.

I agree. Stats are only a part of what should be used to determine what makes a a player great or the argument of who is the best etc etc. But for me, Zidane and Zidane’s direct opponents around his level in his position are the best. To run a high level game in midfield consistently for over a decade these players should be classed as the best and Zidane was top of that list. The likes of Pirlo, Rui Costa, Effenburg, Scholes, Redondo ( and many more) are also my all time favourites also but are second to ZZ.

People always forget what made Zizou so special. Messi, Ronaldo, Maradona, Pelé and many else were/are exceptionnal. But they're individualities. What made Zidane particular is that he made the whole team better just by being on the pitch. I can't see anyone else than Cruyff in that area.

100%. Rare players like that can elevate the standard of their team..from a 7/10 to a 8-9/10.....Yes Messi and Ronaldo are world class; but they in no way have the same presence that Zidane did/does. His managerial career results with Real M prove this...true leader.

Rio talking pure shit. I'll take elegance over explosiveness every day of the weak. With Messi you see him moving quickly, with Zidane you see him caressing the ball around in a way that bamboozles the opposition, time appears to stop. He was a magician who did something other players couldn't. His reactions are only part of it, he has an insight into what's happening on the pitch that other players don't.

Zidane is a level above Ronaldinho and Ronaldo even. He beat one of the all time great international sides (1998 Brazil team) in the 1998 World Cup final by scoring a brace. He was player of the tournament in Euro 2000 and led France to championship. He won Real Madrid the Champions League in 2001 by scoring one of the most insane goals. He destroyed Brazil (who were reigning champions) again in the 2006 World Cup Quarter Final. He scored France's only goals in 2006 World Cup semi-final and final. I have no doubt he would have won them another one of he had stuck around. He wad MR. CLUTCH.

Some players have some aura, charisma and natural leadership that put them immediately over all others, I can't explain it, but Zidane has it, Maradona has it, pelé has it, then Beckenbauer, Cruyff, Platini, Zico. Players like cr7, messi, Ronaldinho, look like kids having fun on the field, explosives and fast, but something missing, that aura and giant leadership is not there. They run, dribble, pass and score, but they don't lead. I was counting lately messi's unnecessary goals in games where barca were in lead 3 or 4-0, and then he scores the fifth and maybe the sixth, I was amazed how many he has of those. In the old time, most goal scorers use to swap when the game is secured. Think about long term and team's best decisions instead of individual decisions. That why Zidane was ronaldo's best manager, he managed his time for the prime moment and won 3 champions league in the row. Zidane lead as a manager the same way he uses to lead as a player. Be patient, play your game, only the final score counts, play more intensive in the money time. Zidane always scored when everyone was desperate for a winning goal. He made us so happy at every goal he scored because it was a special moment, a victory moment, and always with magic touch and style. Zidane and Maradona my all time favorites.

I'm a diehard Barça fan but if there was one player from Real Madrid that I wouldn't mind seeing in a Barça shirt, that player would be Zinedine Zidane. The man's footballing IQ is exceptional. He led France to their first ever FIFA World Cup in 1998 & was the playmaker for that special Madrid side of the early 2000s aka the Galacticos. He almost single handedly led France to another World Cup final in 2006 only for his emotions to get the best of him but I'll never forget how he made the likes of Kaka, Cafu, Ronaldinho, R9, Roberto Carlos etc look like amateurs in that tournament. Zidane was unique.

@@erykmelgaard2226 When you make a comparison between players, first we need to set the parameters upon which they are compared. If you just want to compare trophies, there would not be any space for argument, since that's a factual analysis. Zidane excelled in one of the toughest defenses in Italy, then he was the galactico among the galacticos in Spain. In the International arena, the difference he made was clearly visible. France won everything with Zidane and they lost in the first round without Zidane. He decided the pace of France's game. Most of all he delivered in almost all the big games with his individual brilliance let it be any of the crucial free kicks or penalties or or the headers or the assists out of nowhere, he was the one who made the difference for his sides. He would merely run with ball, gives the ball, takes it back, Make a twist or turn, and suddenly there would be space out of nowhere. Such was his magic. He was undeniably the greatest of his generation. Can't say any of these about Iniesta who excelled under the tiki taka and mostly Xavi was the one who controlled the game. Iniesta was not even the best player in his team at Barca. Unlike Messi, both Xavi or Iniesta could not make it anywhere near their best before the prime or after the fall of tiki taka. They dominated the world together when tiki taka reigned supreme.

I don't like "the best player" thing because I think 1. Football is a collective, hence the achievement of any player isn't individual, 2 .not all players have the opportunity to play for a team full of other stars, 3. Not all great players played in similar or have same attributes, so all this makes comparison difficult. However, all I can say is that zizou was a different proposition-- has something that set him apart. He always seemed to have space because of close control and dancing body. It was like you see all those great players who dribble fast and score fast and use their physical attributes to maximise their ball skills, but him had his dance moves and brain which gave him space and time, and control of opponents. Zizou in front of his opponents was like an ancient Greek philosopher patronising his lesser villagers. Zidane wasn't just about effectiveness and winning, though he loved winning things, he enjoyed his football and loved to entertain. Despite his entertaining moves, he was against showboating and humiliating his opponents. I don't think we'll ever see someone with his skillset.

Everybody has their opinions but for me he is arguably the best player ever if not definitely the best cam ever. I would say messi is better but he is a completely different player to zidane. It can be very hard to say who is the best because there was so many legends

@mashedpotato982 3 жыл бұрын

Messi is great, but that Barcelona team is loaded. He wasn't able to replicate his magic at the world level like Zidane did when his support cast isn't as great as it was at B'lona.

Zidane was the most creative and most powerful. Today football is boring with too much passing and players not able to handle ball for a sec to do something with it as we see with Zidane, Ronaldinho, Messi or JJ Okocha at Frankfurt. Those fabulous goals from long distance are also missing.

Zidane is a different League he was extremely strong could hold the midfield on his own score goals from anywhere and the goals he created was unreal he wasn't human he was that good and Zidane rated Paul scholes highly he said he was the best player in the world at one point scholes and Zidane in the same team unbeatable
