Although the language used was crass and juvenile, it seeded to me nothing other than a school-yard rumble. A bit of name calling and the odd punch thrown: boys will be boys: lets shake hands and move on.
Back to topic of this thread the difficulty here (I have no idea why some advocates of DP dragged the very great Zizou in to it) is what is the definition of best. Do we mean the most skillful and talented, or the most loyal (but to be honest DP fans, Alex never in my knowledge had that loyalty tested by another massive club trying to buy him, that would have tested his and the boards loyalty), the player with the most titles, or the best looking. Or even the one one just feel most close to.
For me the Best means, the most talented and therefore Ol' Lovely Eyes doesn't past muster. There are at least two better.
