Pirlo is great. But Sinisa Mihajlovic can beat him on a good day for Serie A's best. My overall pick has to by Juninho as well.

Asuncao is definitely the best freekick taker i've seen, and Davids has the most energy of a player, or possibly Rino Gattuso. Other than that most of whats been posted I agree with. Oh and larsson is easily the best finisher I've seen as well

    I didn't say fastest players i said fastest with the ball at their feet

    I gotta amend some of my observations as i criminally neglected to add Klose and Ballack in both best headers of the ball and great leapers

    Cordoba is a great leaper if not a great header of the ball

    Pirlo is great free kick taker, but the names that are above him are better IMO.

    freekicker, I miss Ronaldinho on that one. And I miss Pirlo on ball control. And I miss Xavi in passes. I miss RVN in finishing, even though I hate him. Zambrotta in most energy too.

    Surely Gerrard has to be up there for most energy? The guy just steams forward from midfield, in much the same way as Lampard, but he also does the defensive stuff more than Lampard. Basically, Gerrard tries to do almost everything he can in a game.
    But yeah Gattuso has always impressed me with his energy, he never seems to stop running.
