My Favourite Footballers of all Time

I have always admired skillful players. Diego Maradona always excites me whenever I watch his game even though he has been retired for almost a decade. His footwork is pure magic and his passion for the game especially the World Cup is uncomparable.
I believe that Argentina could not have won the 1986 World Cup without Maradona.
Zinedine Zidane affectionately called Zizou is a naturally gifted player with an extraordinary ability to control the ball. He has been a great asset to the French national team and Real Madrid. I will miss him when he retires after the World Cup.
Ronaldinho is unstoppable. One reason I like him so much is that he seems to enjoy his game. It is almost as if he would play football for free. I like his passion for the game. He is the type of player the game needs. He is the major reason Brazil look like they will retain the World Cup trophy in Germany.
