Still not worthy of a thread

Quick sidenote, "Filippo Inzaghi" is also the answer to one of my all time favourite pub quiz questions: Who's the only player having played in one of the "big" European leagues to have scored against all of the other teams in their league over the course of a single season?

 

Not sure if that's still true though, been more than a few years since I've heard it asked :lol: 

There's no way Messi hasn't done that. Maybe Inzaghi was the only one before then.

 

Edit: he has. And he did it consecutively  :lol:

Germany's a hard one. Klinsmann was my favourite player as a kid so I went for him, probably now it's Kroos.

 

Having lots of poachers like Raul, Inzaghi and Klose is interesting. I used to love strikers but would always pick a creator these days.

Explains why that question hasn't popped up again then :lol:

Describing Raul as a poacher doesn't do him justice imo.

 

I tend to romanticize 90's grafters/obelisks way too much :lol: 

Italy: Maldini

France: Desailly 

Spain: Hierro

Holland: Davids
Germany: Effenberg
Brazil: Ronaldo

Argentina: Batistuta
Portugal: Figo

Norway: Myggen

If I’m going Germany, it’s gonna be all goalkeepers. Kopke, Kahn, Neaur. Not Lehmann, though, too rash. 

What about Schumacher?

If we're talking favourite German players, I’ll have to show my age and say Matthias Sammer. The guy was an absolute machine for Dortmund and Germany back in the mid 90’s

 

They had a wealth of excellent all-round midfielders at that time. Sammer, Effenberg, Hässler, Matthäus, Hamann, Möller, Jeremies, Scholl comes to mind.
