he is over-rated, but he does have some skill.  he is starting to get older, and should think about retiring in the near future before the younger and more skilled players (C. Ronaldo, F. Torres, Robinho) make him look even more like the rubbish bin that he is.  all he has going for him now is a pretty face, a good cross, and luck.

Why cant we be honest enough? Or are we ashamed?\nhenry??? He cant score for France and what will he do for us? More big talk...more blame to the fans, referees and opponents. Even Van nistelroy, scevchenko, totti, are descent and more consistent.. Besides We have Rooney, Joe Cole, Defoe....we dont need more strikers. we need someone to create and turn the game upside down when required in the midfield and provide our strikers more assists to score and score they will. Someone whose sheer presence will make the opponents feel unhappy, someone whom they will fear, someone whom they will respect. There are Kaka, Nedved, Robinho, Messi for ths job - who are all wonderfull talents. But why should we go for the next best alternative when we do have the greatest player of this decade in hand. RONALDINHIO................................\nThe only one who does it in the big stage\nThe world cup: \nRemember what he did to us in the world cup 2002. That wretched run from his own half to serve it hot to Rivaldo and what can we say about that outrageous freekick.\nChampions League ; \nThe flip-flap with the right to score with the left against A.C.Milan the favourites.\nTo dance and juggle before placing the ball in the left hand corner of the net against Chelsea.\n\nLa Liga: \nThe two blistering runs down the left hand side macking mockery of the defenders and netting the ball against Real Madrid which forced the two supporters of Real Madrid to stand up and clap. \n\nIf we have to dream then we should dream big why settle for less and compromise with quality!

Michael Ballack new number at Chelsea is going to be 13, as the number he has worn at Bayer Leverkusen, Bayern Munich and currently Germany.\n\nWith Ballack taking the number 13 shirt, this is possibly going to mean that the number previously worn by Chelsea player William Gallas, is going to move on in the summer

UH???\nHe is ONE OF THE BEST- has amazing footwork, speed, can pinpoint his long passes like a laser-beam, and the free kicks... fughedabuouit!\nHow can you ask a question like that?\nOnly people who don't consider him a great player either don't follow the sport, or hate Beckham personally (for whatever reason).  There's no doubt about his abilities as a footballer.\nThere's a reason first Man U and then Real Madrid signed him, no?  Because they want the best players on their teams (all teams do).  If you choose a world 11, w/out Beckham, as I've said above, you don't kow anything about football.

I have watched Karimi with high hopes - but feel that he's just not a play-maker. He has good scenes and moments, but he doesn't seem to spark the team or really drive them forward. \n\nI think the real question is whether Deisler could take Ballack's place! He's got fantastic energy, is crative, and really gives his all. Not even Ballack does that all so often... !

David Beckham's sons are cuter than Michael Ballack children.\n\nMichael Ballack is Hot but Beckham is hotter..I dont  like Beckham alot as a player but as look for sure he is hot..so is Michael Ballack

I break my sides laughing at him. He is one joker as well as being a bloody good footballer. And have you seen the crumpet in his life? WOW!

First, Gatusso is going nowhere!  Fan Favorite in Milan.\n\nSir Alex had bids in on guys like Ballack.  But it is difficult to beat Chelsea on a deal if it is about money and sucess.  \n\nHopefully he is working on Shevchenko, who has expressed intrest in England.  But with Drogba leaving....\n\nYou are right though he should have more success in securing players for next season especially before the world Cup.

Michael Ballack is an excellent player, he's one of the best in German history. He will make the difference between an early exit and late elimination round participation for the German team this summer.

I think he's highly overrated, like Owen and Ballack

He is supremely talented, and could provide a large boost to Sweden this summer in the World Cup.  However, he never really impresses at the club level, or at least not at Juventus yet!  Give him some time though; keep in mind that some players just don't prosper in the Serie A (i.e. Thierry Henry ring any bells!?) If he doesn't prosper then transfer him; he'd probably fit right in in the EPL!

totti is overated, very overated, i think he is possibly the most overated player in the world and he plays like a poor mans frank lampard, if you mean brazils ronaldo then he is having weight problems at the minute but he is fantastic, the defining player of a generation, 15 world cup goals says it all, has had problems with form for the last couple of seasons but still ronaldo would walk onto any teamsheet be it chelsea, barca or juventus he is the best striker in the world.  inzaghi is technically gifted and a good forward, i wouldnt say he is especially good just good, klose has an eye for goal and probably the best header of the ball in the world, crespo plays football like he is painting a masterpiece, he is a little overated but very very classy, del piero played in tottis place the other day and played well but he is only a shadow of his former self he used to be a great player but for the last few seasons in the champs leaugue he has been poor messi is a name to look out for in the future he hammered chelsea at camp nou but has been largely left out of the argentina team at this world cup, he has graced our screens one or twice and has looked good but come 2010 he will be the star of the tournament, so so talented i would go as far to say that along with arjen robben he is the most talented winger in the world and a huge huge star of the future, i dont know who this bal is sorry, the best player on that list is ronaldo( if you mean brazils ronaldo) ronaldo is the best player of his generation, ohhh bal is michael ballack, ballack reminds me of steven gerrard and michale essien, he is class true class great range of passing, great tackler, powerful shot, never runs out of energy, ballack could play centre half or centre forward and would not disapoint in either, a great midfielder and  a great commited footballer as his performances have shown,

There is no one to substiute Ballack, but Karimi will also do a good job.(BUT he can't lead the team as Ballack does, Ballack has a special skill)
