Where will Totti be at Nedved's age? You shot yourself in the foot with that one. Are you kidding? He is already at Nedved status and in many opinions beyond him. The fact that Nedved won a scudetto with Lazio and Totti only won one is really a weak arguement. Are we not talking about the individual player? So the fact that Virdis won more CL than Maradona makes him a better player? Ferrara winning 7 scudetto's makes him a better defender than Scirea or Maldini?
Nedved was never in the "breath" of FIFA Player of the Year or Ballon D'Or at Totti's age. If you want to talk facts...
to quote "ehehehhehe"

Totti

I can't seem to remember anything else.
Nedved is a mere 4 years older than Totti! Maybe you are are assuming Totti is a teenager. When Nedved was 20 years old he won the Czech league - Granted it is not Serie A. At age 20 Totti had only 6 Serie A goals under his belt. Nedved did very well at Lazio, he has already won the Ballon D'or at Juve. Being at the breath of FIFA's player of year or Ballon D'or does not mean anything. Winning it is what matters. Whether you like it or not a player is judged by his achievements. Will Totti take Roma into the final of the CL? Well time will tell.
The fact remains Nedved has done it .... We shall await to see if Totti can do it.
