Why has no one mentioned maldini? 20 odd seasons at that level, with that amount of consistency, he has to be up there.... But Im a great fan of the original ronaldo and his mate rivaldo had a special left foot.

 

[Bill Walker]

I know with me its a heart thing but for me the greatest was Francis Lee

power, brilliant passer, speed, tough as fuck

Keep yer Zidanne, loved to watch Frannie.

Comparing eras is difficult because of equipment (leather boots & balls as opposed to lightweight materials of later years), diet, training regimes etc.
No one has mentioned Stanley Matthews or Tom Finney, two of the best I ever saw.
But my vote goes for the incomparable PELE. If you never saw the sequence of him in the 1970 (I think) World Cup you are unlucky. Pele had everything, skill, speed, shooting and heading power and strength.
He even played in goal quite often. Probably the greatest all-round player ever.

Pele played in a team of superstars though. Maradona never did. Therefore Diego is the best.

Aaaah, dear old Franco Baresi. Used to keep a picture of Dave Ewing on the inside of his changing room locker.
