my vote goes to van persie...why his name not in the list?

i am vote for messi. Have to admit that he is better dribbler then CR7. faris21 youtube prove it.

Lionel Messi

Messi dribble very stable, seldom lose ball

Definitely Messi.

While we're at it, why dun open threads voting for Best Free Kick taker, Best Header, Best Left Foot, Best Right Foot, Best Handball, Best BallsBall.

i like "fat" ronaldo when he was young

no doubt in this current time, no one is a better dibbler than lionel messi! he's like dancing with the ball while he runs....

messi..his leg really fast

thats the advantage of become shortie i guess.. heh

I still love Zidane's footwork.....his pace is not as fast as like Messi, Ronaldo but it's his intelligent and body language making him pass opponent so efficiently.....

so does ronaldinho
wonder why Mu never put a 100 million euro price tag on ronaldo.
what if messi suddenly asking for transfer?
he may be able to buy himself out of the contract. they always have this thing in the agreement

Added on May 3, 2008, 2:35 pmcould be one of the reason too. both of 'em are shorter.
and the goal he scored against getafe is almost identical to maradona's 2nd against england during 86 wc.

actually i think ronaldo does have that kind of clause in his contract but maybe the media haven't really highlighted the fact.all top players normally do.that 'buying out your own contract' thingy if i'm not mistakened is only allowed if u have less than two years left with your current club.any transfer agents here?

p.s: would like to add kalou as a great dribbler as well..needs more time to develop though

I used to like watching David Ginola play. He was graceful on the ball and as he didn't have pace, he relied on his trickery to get past defenders. Often, you needed two defenders to keep him in check.

Cause there's no need for English clubs to put a release clause on their players. In Spain it's required by the football federation for all players to have release clauses. And I doubt Messi has that much money to buy himself out ...not like he would want to leave anyway

Kaka is an efficient dribbler too, you don't need flair and trickery to be a good dribbler, just raw acceleration, pace and a good sense of positioning.

When you have pace, you see players kick the ball 10 yards ahead before chasing it down. There isn't much need to dribble it. It's when you don't have pace that you need trickery and good footwork to get past your opponent. Case in point? Look "Futsal".

i vote for lionel messi . he is quick and good on gorengz all the defenders .

Ronaldo can definitely run much faster when he has got the ball... hard to describe, but that is what he does...

Dribbling? Few types I guess...

Some can knock it and run and do some change of pace, like Henry, Denilson (not the one at Arsenal, the one that went to Real Betis for then a world record fee)...

Some can really turn and completely make a fool outta the opposing player... Cantona, Ginola etc.

And some seem to have the ball stuck to their feet, like Zizou and Asprilla etc.

So which is which?

Anyway, I vote for Robinho, for his fantastic pedaladas (step-overs) during his time at Santos!

u see how Theo dribble??he beat around 4-5 player..so vote for him..he deserve to get this title from me...

alexandre pato is good also..
