Zinedine Zidane announces retirement
« on: April 22, 2006, 10:49:43 AM »
     Reports out of Europe state that ZZ Top , will once again announce his retirement this week, so look

     out for that.    I don"t know where  this site rate"s him , but I think I can safely say one of the best

     of  his generation and  arguably top  5 leaders in world sport . :beermug:

Two greats are soon to be done with the beautiful game
2006-04-22

 
Reports in the Spanish media claim Real Madrid star Zinedine Zidane is ready to announce he will retire from all football after the World Cup finals.

The French star is held by many to be the greatest player of his generation but has now reputedly called a press conference for Wednesday to reveal he will not fulfil the final year of his contract at Santiago Bernabeu.

After already backing away from the international scene after Euro 2004, Zidane returned for the World Cup finals and had already made clear he would be bidding adieu to Les Bleus for good after the completion of the Germany tournament.

However if claims from a Spanish radio station are correct then he is also ready to call time on his glorious club career.

With Los Merengues currently in a state of upheaval after the resignation of president Florentino Perez, who brought Zidane to the Bernabeu as the most expensive of the galacticos for a world record fee of £42 million, the 33-year-old is believed to be ready to hang up his boots.

The former Juventus star's last game for Real could be on May 7 against Villarreal, while the World Cup finals in Germany could provide the fitting send-off for one of the world's greatest players.

The best midfielder I have seen since Maradona.
Most skillful and best technique as well.
I am amazed at Gilette World Cup show, every week they ask star players who would be in their dream team, and there are always 2 names on that list...Cafu and Zidane.

Zidane is the measuring stick you measure all other players by.
Ronaldinho will now be the new master!

He was born in Marseille to Algerian parents, so Zindane is arguably the greatest out of france. You know what bounty killer meant stop trying to be a smart ass ;)

Ronaldinho is better than Zidane and I'm not comparing present day Ronaldinho with present day Zidane.

Dread, you didn't just compare Ronnie and Hardest right?  ???
Ronaldo 'FIFA World Player of the Year, UEFA Ballon D'Or, One World Cup Title etc' Assis vs Kerwyn 'I dunno why TrinInfinite is mih pom pom gyul' Jemmott?

It's not the 1st time I have heard folk say Ronnie is far off from Zidane's achievements, I wonder if that's a factual comparison or more based on emotion, 2 La liga titles, WC title, and perhaps soon to be CL title, how far off is Ronnie from Zizou?  Help meh understand dat one nah.

He (Ronaldinho) is not far away from Zidane's achievements......he just has not had the career longevity as yet...

Zidane and Ronaldo are the only two players to have won the FIFA World Player of the year award 3 times....Ronaldinho has one it twice, so he's right up there.....

If Ronaldinho continues along the road that he's on, and retires 8 years down the line (the age that Zizou is now)...he would be remembered as one of the greatest ever.......just as Zidane is regarded currently.

agreed kicker...I don't think anybody ever said that he would not get there in time...but right now for right now...if you look at it, France wasn't going to make this Wc and he came back...and they did...so right now when you look at greatness and long lasting legacy, ZZ already in the history books. Ronaldhino still have one or two more world cups to win and some other bits and pieces to achieve (which I believe he has the skill to achieve) before you par them.

Two trophy Ronaldinho say he want to win. Champions leage and lead his team to Win another World Cup. The man does train on the beach every morning to stay fit for the World Cup.
