Moving this thread back into discussion from the archives since, well, there seems to be a lot of current talk on great footballers. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (thanks, Kurt!)

(IMG: http://hem.passagen.se/arsenalshirts/70-talet/liam_brady.jpg) Liam Brady. (damn he looks so Irish) I first watched him play in the FA Cup final against Utd when I knew nothing about him. I loved his game and since then I've found some more games of that Arsenal period. He was such a great player. More than that, he was unique, like most 7's in the history of football... He also played for Inter, Juventus and West Ham among other clubs but that was not enough to make me like him any less. Well not significantly less anyway.

Oh and of course: Reinhard "Stan" Libuda (IMG: http://www.wernerfrueh.de/libuda_autogramm.jpg) He was a Schalke player but a great one. One of the best wingers the Bundesliga has ever seen, He also played for Germany from 1963 to 1971. There is a nice phrase on his dribbling skills: No one can get around God. Except for Stan Libuda. Ah yes...those were the great days when football was still sport.
