Re: Favourite World Cup player of all time.
True .... but how many players can we get that are worth standing in his shadow.
Bobby Charlton is probably Englands best World Cup footballer, Rooney could take the mantle of off him if he has an Epiphany this year
George Best, easily Northern Irelands
Scotlands a bit tricky.... Dennis Law ? They actually had some very good players in the late 60's and through the 70's Billy Bremner ?
Wales John Toshack.
Aus.... I'm praying that its going to be Tim Cahill's year..... Aussies performance always comes down to one key player though.....Brett Emmerton.

As a player very few, as a man with such talent even fewer.
Could name a number of Scots players from the 50s,60s, 70s but think Kenny Dalglish deserves a mention.

Yes, but unlike Pele and especially Maradona, Cryuff was unable to single handedly win the world cup for his country.

Re: Favourite World Cup player of all time.
You have obvious forgotten that Australia have beaten England. Ok, in a friendly. England fielded their second team in the first half but changed almost their whole team in the second half but still couldn't win.
