Juninho would be number one for me from the modern era by a distance but Mihajlovic and Van Hooijdonk are both good shouts. Platini, Maradona and Zico from the previous era were all lethal.

Juninho A more realistic discussion would be 2nd greatest as nobody tops the man above Mihajlovic and here's another Jose Luis Chilavert, the guys a bloody keeper
