Literally who
>>
>>66984575
Gazza, literally the most skilful english player in the past 50 years
Only hoddle and le tiss come close

>>66984555
Why does Gazza look like one of those badly aged homosexuals who always dyes his thinning hair.

Peter Beardsley was better

No. No English player has ever reached the heights of Zidane (WC, Euro, Ballon d'Or, international headbutt meme icon). England haven't even won anything for 50 years ffs.

I'm sure you agree that Zidane was a better player than Best then?

Nah, thought not.

In terms of raw skill across all attributes

Le Tissier > Gascoigne > Hoddle

Le Tissier scored goals consistently which Ronaldo couldn't pull off. But he was a few pounds overweight. Still, most skillful player of the EPL era, easily.

Think about it, Le Tissier didn't train hard, had no ambition, stayed at a dead end club, and still in the top 10 goals of the last 25 years, half would feature him. And he had no decent players around him, surrounded by nobody hoofballers.
>>
>>66987295
Yes.

George Best was an alcoholic playing in a babby era. People outside of the British Isles have barely heard of him
>>
>>66987351
>Le Tissier scored goals consistently which Ronaldo couldn't pull off

Matt Le Tissier - 461 games, 164 goals
Cristiano Ronaldo - 455 games, 343 goals

wow i wonder how great would cristiano be if he could score like le tissier did

>>66987351
loved le tiss desu. genius player, shame he was such a lazy cunt

Watch this and then try and say that Gazza wasn't the GOATest of all time.

>wow i wonder how great would cristiano be if he could score like le tissier did

Le Tissier didn't play with the likes of Bale & Benzema

Bale sold for £80million, right?

No one thinks Bale had the raw skill of Le Tissier

Bale could outsprint Le Tissier without getting out of breath. And Bale's athleticism would get him goals Le Tissier would miss out on

But the difference is that Le Tissier scored goals while strolling about the pitch, being several kilos overweight AND while being surrounded by 2nd division hoofball merchants

>>
>>66987352

A babby era where breaking opponents legs was deemed fair play.

And he was constantly hungover all the time. Have you ever played on a Sunday team hung out your ass? You'd appreciate Best's ability tenfold.

Best in the prissy modern day era? There wouldn't even be a question about it, he would shit all over Zizou

What a waste that was. Imagine a fat Iniesta spending his career with Getafe, getting 8 caps. If only the league had been more professional by then already.
>>
>>66984555
he was good but no

>>66987387

He is saying that Le god scored more skillful goals than Cringnaldo
