It's almost like folks forget that Barca under Rijkaard were a damn good team, and that 04-06 squad one off the best modern day football team. Very highly Technical Athletic team

Yeah it had the perfect mix between athleticism and tekkers. I enjoyed that team more than anything post 09 treble team did. Also I think because Dinho was just having fun out there :smugfavre: the team was just more enjoyable to watch. I seriously got bored of Tiki Taka Barca smashing teams 4-0 after 20-30mins and the game being done as a contest.

If they giving Zidane #2 spot when most of his big accomplishments were in the 90s, might as well up OG Ronaldo a few spots. Dude was dominating world cup in 02.

Rijkaard laid the blueprint but Pep expanded on it heavily. He just happened to do it during Spain’s golden generation too.

Good win to CAR but we really should never have lost in Lagos.

We’ll qualify from this round but next round is really where things get interesting. Burkina, Algeria, Mali, Ghana, Egypt, Senegal, Cameroon, CIV, Morocco could all be on the cards.

I swear, AFCON WC Qualifiers are the toughest.

Nope. Euro 2000. CL winner 02.

Zidane is overrated tho. It's just his peak moments are so high they mask majority of the time when he was just alright. Even if he did look classy while playing just alright.
