Boban made his name bigger then Prosinečki, but as a player Robert P. will always be no.1 player in Croatia.
My opinion, and also from many others
Boban is my no.2, Šuker no.3...............

Hahaha
"Big yellow" was the greatest Croatian tallent ever, Ćiro Blažević directed his career on wrong way, far from parents and home he grown up in Belgrade, he started smoking and his runing capacities are been ruined.
I remember that every game on the stong sun he played bad, lungs couldn't work on that high temperatures.
But "the best young player award" in the world on WC U21 in Chile, CL with Red star- Belgrade, third place from WC in France 98, one of rare players who played for Real and Barca, capiton of Portsmouth in just year or two, legend of Sevilla,Croatia,Osasuna.... all that proving that you'r right, he's the best Croatian player ever.

At the moment I can't think clear enough to remember all the great players originating in Norway. But I suppose most of you have heard of Ole Gunnar Solskjær?

Yep. I have always like him as a player and as a person. He never complain about the bench and occasionally delivers when his service is called upon to. He has been a great servant for Man Utd and I'm happy that his career is back on track after the series of injuries that he has had to endure over the past 3-4 years.

Yeah, he has showed incredible strength throughout the injury periods. Coming back to score both for Norway and Man Utd is quite a feat. But he's very highly valued at Man Utd and has always been. This is shown through Man Utd not letting him go, unlike what many clubs surely would've done, especially as he's 33 now. Solskjær deserves all the praise he gets.

Well, when he got injured, I tought he will never play again. But now, he is not just playing, he is scoring eighter. He had scored few good goals. He is back on the track. Although he didn't play for 3 years...

True. It is here the impressive part is. He got injured a second time just when re-building for a comeback and was out for over another year, making the total to 2-3 years, as you say. We are all amazed here in Norway. Also, you mean one heck of a lot if Sir Alex Ferguson asks the physios how you're recovering from injury every single day.

From my country I guess it`s Bebo (Mahmoud el Khateeb).. I really think he was one of the best in the world in his time.

Maicon, Zanetti
1. Henrik Larsson
2. Zlatan Ibrahimovic
3. Tomas Brolin

Larrson is nr 1 because he has had a splendid career and been vital to Celtic, Barcelona and the Swedish national team. Top scorer of all time in Celtic and has helped them win many trophies. Highest scoerer of all time in Swedish world Cup history and helped Barcelona win the the Spanish league and Champions League. A legend.:star: :star: :star:

2. Zlatan.

Highest transfer fee ever, he has broken that record every time he has been sold to a new club. Scored the most amount of wondergoals any Swede has ever mustered. Was the major reason Malmö FF climbed back to allsvenskan, won two league titles and a cup in his three year stay at Holland. "Won" two league titles in two years with Juventus. Has the highest goal ratio per match in the Swedish shirt. One of a kind, only a metter of time untill he is nr 1.:star: :star:

3. Tomas Brolin.

I'm convinced he could of been nr one if he wouldn't of had such a short career. Nonetheless he was a major part of Parmas Uefacup win and Swedens third place in the 94 World cup. Great football player with an astonoshing touch on the ball.:star:

Some of you may raise your eyebrows to the fact I didn't mention great legends like Nordahl, Kurre Hamrin, Nacka Skoglund, Gunnar Gren etc.

These Legends played in the sixties and seventies, comparing a player from then to now is like comparing Jesse Owens to Asafa Powell. Players nowadays are tougher, stronger, faster, more technical and overall more skilled. A World Record time of 9.77 is better then one of 10.2 seconds therefore there is no contenst when determining who was better, greater is anorher story.

What about Dahlin and that great GK who played in WC 94 (can't remember his name!)

About Zlatan, wait until he is 30 and make the decision again. You said you are fan of Malmo and I guess this is a factor. Ah well, these things are very subjective at the end of the day.

Ravelnilli or something
Another thing, did Thomas Brolin play as a GK before he retired
I loved by the way his celebration rasing his hand 90 degrees and doing a jump and spin, I used to do it till I was 14 years old whenever I scored
