Can you think of a better Playmaker??
And I mean Playmaker in the true meaning of the word.. I'm not talking about Fabregas, Ballack, Gerrard, Lampard, and all the so-called "Playmakers".
I wouldn't want One player who tries to contribute in every Aspect; Defence, Attack, everything.. I prefer it if Defensive Midfielders do their work -and- Playmakers do theirs..
And in that sense, I would take Juan Roman Riquelme over any other of the Top Rated Attacking Midfielders.
What about Totti, especially before he had his injury problems recently, last couple of seasons he's been played as a striker where he has scored a good amount of goals but the seasons before when he played in behind the striker i thought he was incredicle as he could just play those intricate through balls & just makes something happen out of nothing. I know there will be loads that dont like him as a player but he is definately gifted & up there with the great players of today.
He is definitely a great player -but- in my opinion, Not as good as Riquelme.
I have never seen Totti getting close to Riquelme -when- Riquelme is on a good day, like when he single-handedly Dictated a Win over Del Bosque's Real Madrid.. or when he walked all over Inter in the Champions League Quarter-Finals.
And then again, Roma fails to win the Scudetto -and- I have Not seen Francesco Totti Leading Roma to a Champions League Semi-Final. And please consider that Roma is a Team with more History than Villarreal.
Totti is a great player.. but I think Riquelme is a better "Playmaker".
