Zidane has the gift most players lack: long spindly legs and cool game assessing. He has long since capitalized on these gifts well, his soccer moves are so refined that he is the game's finest ball handler and top playmaker. Elegant dribbling, accurate passing and good vision, no one can rival Zidane's midfield soccer moves since Bobby Charlton and Luigi Platini. Well maybe Ronaldinho can, who also earned his right as one of the greatest footballers of all time. I'm a bit undecided so you better be the judge.
