Tomzyyy01 Posted 8 hours ago #1 Posted 8 hours ago If you could bring back one retired footballer in their prime to play today, who would you choose?
gauzeki Posted 6 hours ago #2 Posted 6 hours ago Ronaldinho without a second thought. The game's way too tactical now, we need that pure joy and unpredictability back.
xoran Posted 5 hours ago #4 Posted 5 hours ago Zidane for me. That elegance in midfield would still run the show today, defenders wouldn't know what to do with him.
Phantari55 Posted 4 hours ago #5 Posted 4 hours ago Zidane is a solid pick, but give me prime Brazilian Ronaldo any day — defenders today wouldn't handle that blend of pace and finishing.
Irisax Posted 4 hours ago #6 Posted 4 hours ago R9 all day, defenders now would be sweating just seeing him line up lol
Umbraan34 Posted 4 hours ago #7 Posted 4 hours ago R9 is the only answer tbh, imagine him running at these modern high lines, he'd score 50 a season easy
cedarmia9 Posted 4 hours ago #8 Posted 4 hours ago R9 is the shout, but I'm going Thierry Henry — that pace cutting in from the left would absolutely terrorize modern fullbacks.
myxki Posted 3 hours ago #9 Posted 3 hours ago R9's the obvious one but I'm surprised nobody's mentioned Ronaldinho yet, imagine him embarrassing defenders with that smile in the VAR era lol
Nasiliyee5 Posted 3 hours ago #10 Posted 3 hours ago Henry is a great shout but I’d actually go with prime Pirlo, watching him ping 60-yard passes over today’s high presses would be pure art
ravenenne7 Posted 3 hours ago #11 Posted 3 hours ago R9 gets all the love but honestly I'd bring back prime Maldini, forwards today aren't ready for a defender who actually reads the game instead of just relying on recovery pace
zyxique Posted 2 hours ago #14 Posted 2 hours ago would bring back prime Cafu just to see him bomb down the right for 90 minutes straight, those lung busting overlaps are a lost art these days
kendallixvi Posted 2 hours ago #18 Posted 2 hours ago ronaldinho easily, footy feels way too mechanical now i just wanna see a man smile while embarrassing defenders again
phantenne Posted 1 hour ago #19 Posted 1 hour ago honestly id bring back philipp lahm just for the versatility, you could slot him anywhere and he'd run the show. imagine him reading the game from fullback and then stepping into midfield without missing a beat, moden coaches would lose their minds trying to find a weakness
