Who can you really call world class

Premier League Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea,
comment on the article

Hello all now as you all know the term world class is being used far too much in recent years and I was wondering who everyone thought was world class. Now some people feel that world class players are someone who plays well at international and club level. If this is the case then who is world class because at international level I don't know anyone that realy stands out. I am realy hoping for an open discussion here and no WUMS

Super Jack, totally agree with you, the man was awesome in his prime, truly a great! but the knee injury really killed his career big time. remember he was a skinny kid then, & that injury on his skinny knee ment he had to bulk up his legs to support the injured knee, hence why he was/is over weight. but at Barca & Inter he was easily the best...

Thats raises the old "Gerrard - Lampard: Can it work?" debate!!

Have to say no. But with Pirlo sitting infront of the defense giving them both some freedom rather than restricting each other, maybe.

Prehaps England should drop the wide men and try it with J. Cole and Hargreaves?

i really do like riquelme, but his negatives are that he hates helping his team to defend, & his pace. but he does make up for it with his positive attributes. the kind of player you have to fit the team around. give him that licence to roam free & hes something else!

Ronnie Roon Tev what are you still doing here, utd got a big game tonight. you not going? i dont want to see Giggs (the best LM ever) upfront again! Roony & Tevez should be an awesome combo, better than Yorke & Cole.
