World class players are as rare as hen's teeth. Ronaldo stood out in one of United's best ever teams. That's world class.
Best, Law and Charlton stood out in one of United's best ever teams. That's world class. Di Stefano and Puskas stood out in a great Real Madrid team. That's world class. Gullit, Van Basten and Rijkaard stood out in a great Milan team. That's world class. There's barely any around today other than Ronaldo and Messi. Both are getting on. United should be scouting their balls off to find the next few in line under 25. Probably under 20 as that's the only way we're going to get one. |

He barely played in Europe in 1994/95 because of that stupid foreigner rule. Didn't play in Europe in 1995/96 because we got beaten by Rotor Volgograd. We got to the semi final of the CL in 1997. Didn't really have much of a chance to prove himself but everyone knew he was world class ffs. |

If you're a huge star in the mid '90s English league, to reach world class status you probably have to go to Italy. Or do it in the European Cup/international level. Think Shearer was linked with Juventus around '95. That was the platform. |

And again, I reckon Cantona with his head right would have been great in prime Serie A. But it didn't happen, so he didn't prove it. |

very unlucky to get beat off dortmund, the best team in europe in the 1st half of 97/98 for sure, and treble winners in 98/99 we also beat cruyff's barca at the start of the decade and were an irresistible force in 93 and 94 too, without ever getting the chance to prove it in europe. |
