I just hope he's drug free. Isn't it horrible that we're conditioned to think that way about it? Incredible achievements though.

I'll be sentimental here and go for George Best. The man was a genius.

Where's Kobe Bryant?


Based on dominance and accomplishments, Michael Jordan and Tiger woods.

Ive narrowed mine down to maldini and desailly

maldini was at the top of his game for more than 20 years

italy captain..won european (i think) and world cup

won the cl, won the italian league, won the italian cup


and desailly has won everything he could of as well, only thing he didnt win was the premiership









but then again they were part of a team so they might not count as much

but you can say that about schumacher as well

I would actually rate Ayrton Senna higher than Michael Schumcher, had he not died schumcher wouldnt be so big....

If you dont know who Ayrton Senna is, then you should be appalled...

Should watch his crash on YT.....

I think its one of the worst moments in the history of any sport, he died live on tv in front of an international audience of a couple of million.....

I think I converted ben to F1 when I showed him the clip...

LOL I know all about what if's in F1....

I'm just saying the man died and I don't think he was near his peak....Scumacher was only starting to make it big in F1....

There certainly hasn't been anyone like Senna since his death and I dont think there ever will be...

Senna was great,but he never dominated like Schumacher did. There was always Alain Prost right there, winning titles, as well as him. I think he got legendary status over Prst beause he died on the circuit. But imo, the both of them, were basically the same.

Yeah but I think Prost pushed Senna which was great...a bit like how Hakkinen pushed Schumi...

There is none of it now....they all play it safe.....e.g. Lewis at brazil last year....no racing just settling for a position...senna and prost would never do that...
