paolo maldini - 5 champions league trophies under his name.. anyone can beat that?

second is lionel messi...i'm surprised that only one mentioned him after his hattrick for argentina and 5 goals against leverkusen, oh well..

erm, he won 3 champions league only, the other two were European Cups. Clarence Seedorf did win 4 champions league trophy (ie after 1992/93) to make him the one with most champions league trophy, albeit with 3 different teams.

even if one considers the european cup /ECL as the same, maldini / seedorf still loses out to Real Madrid's Francisco Gento who has 6 european cups to his name smile.gif

Anyway i love maldini too! But seems alot of posters are mostly from the current generation. If one would have seen Maradona played, there would (arguably) be little argument on who is the best tongue.gif Ok la, at least in my view la tongue.gif And i am talking bout qualities on the pitch, not off it - unless you are selecting the "cleanest" and best footballer - in which the likes of giggs, terry, etc would also have to be eliminated:P


But i do believe it is not possible to compare players from different eras - gameplay, mentaility, surrounding, pressure etc are different in different eras.
