    :rofl:

    Only way I could see that is power of numbers, but Zidane can do what those two can do and better.

    Cannavaro backs it up with more individual honours. I rate them both as highly as each other.

    Nesta is better than Cannavaro, Fabio himself would admit it.

    I don't care, it was a joke that Cannavaro won the ballon d'or, Nesta is comfortably better than Cannavaro

    Well that's what I assumed when you said Bam bam & Suker > Rooney, otherwise that would deserve a :LOL:

    But individually Zidane wasn't that much better than Rui Costa or Moller who were both absolutely class.

    Plus you have to think about how these teams are going to match up.

    Is Zidane going to have a nice time against Redondo? No

    Are Moller and Rui Costa going to have a nice time vs Cocu? Yes very much

    I'm merely stating facts. Nesta has never even been top 3 in Ballon D'Or or FIFA WPOTY. But, like I said, I rate them both very highly Cannavaro can back it up though.

    Who the **** is Moller?

    And I adore Rui Costa but Zidane is better than him, Zidane. along with Messi and the Ronaldos are the best 4 players in this drafts.

    yes and I'm stating that the fact is useless in this instance. Nesta can back up that he's a better defender than Cannavaro based on his performances throughout his career, I don't (and he doesn't) need a Ballon d'or to back it up, it's plain to see.

    Cocu would simply sit and and help out Cannavaro and Hierro who could deal with your front 3. Rooney, Moller and Rui Costa can be dealt with Cocu, Hierro and Cannavaro I think. Cafu would eat Giggs alive and Sorin could certainly deal with Ljungberg.

    Zidane is one of the greatest of all time he blows Rui Costa and Moller out of the water. Him playing behind two strikers like Zamorano and Suker. Them two together are better than Rooney easily but Costa and Moller together can't do more than Zidane on his own.

    Why is it useless when it clearly shows he was the best in the world that year? :confused: You can say it's useless and claim it means nothing but it doesn't mean you're right. I think it's a big advantage when comparing players big awards like that, but like I've said twice already I rate them both as highly as each other.

    So your saying that Zidane is more effective that both Moller and Rui Costa combined? that's a bigger fail than thinking Cannavaro is better than Nesta.

    BTW Cafu wouldn't eat Giggs and Sorin would cry against Ljungberg.

    Rating them as highly as each other isn't enough, Nesta was better. Cannavaro won that ballon d'or because he won the world cup, not for his perfomances over that year, Nesta was a better defender than Cannavaro could ever have been.

    You don't agree, fair enough, I'm just telling you my opinion.

    As far as I'm concerned Moller isn't fit to lace Zidane's boots this is a question of who's better Zidane or Rui Costa with another decent player alongisde him and Zidane is better. Redondo would cry himself to sleep after being embarassed by Zidane. And Cafu wouldn't give Giggs a sniff all game.

    And I've never said Cannavaro is better than Nesta. All I've said is together with Hierro they are better than Stam & Nesta and that I rate both individuals as highly as each other but Cannavaro has the individual awards to back it up.

    I'm not saying that you did say he's better, you said you rate Cannavaro and Nesta equally, and I'm saying I rate Nesta notably higher than Cannavaro.

    That comment above was directed at Flash but I respect your opinion but Italian defenders in the last era for me see's Maldini above everyone else then Nesta & Fab.

    Not necessarily the best defender.
