As a lfc fan I was truly jealous of Arsenal during the time he played there . The unbeaten season in the PL is still a hugely underrated achievement.

He’s not even in the top 10. There are a LOT of players historically. Here are some players I put above him (and above CR7 too) - Romario - Zico - Van Basten - Maradona - R9 - Cruyff (I have Pele and Messi as top two) So that’s already a top 8. I also like Michael Laudrup. Then there is Di Stefano And maybe have to put cr7 at number 11 due to his stats alone.

As a Juventus fan who attended games in Turin in the late 90s, this is the footballer that got away. Juv e has a huge list of elite players in their history...CR7, Zidane, Del Piero, Carnavaro, Buffon, Platini, etc. Had Henry stayed he would probably be amongst them.

A literal cheat code, back in the day. Didnt seem fair on the opponents looking back. Faster, stronger, would drop off on the left hand side to pick up the ball. Defenders couldnt go with him as they would be out of position. Midfielders couldnt go over to cover as they left gaps in the centre of the park for Bergkamp to exploit. Right back ended up having to face Pires and Thierry on their own. Could dribble past defenders like they were statues, could score from anywhere. Completely broke the mould for a striker. Sensational. Unplayable. On countless occasions ❤❤❤
