any team without R9 and Ronaldinho cannot be considered a world best

Xavi in a world XI please it is clear you are no student of the game here are a few who were miles better than Xavi , Baggio,Platini,Cruyff, Socrates , Rivelino, Gerson Garranchia to name a few

Baggio? Wrong position.

For me, the only two central midfielders worth discussing are :Cryuff and Pirlo.

Pirlo in a world XI have you seen the state of Italian football

Even McTominay is looking like a world beater at Napoli

Let me rip you to shreds here.

1. Baggio is not in Andrea Pirlo's league. Only a madman would put Baggio ahead of Pirlo. I further repeat, Baggio didn't even play midfield enough to warrant consideration there. If you really knew Baggio, you would yield so as not be taken lightly.
2. The state of Italian football today has no bearing on an all-time World XI. I should discontinue the discussion once you posited that one should look at the state of Italian football today. Do you see the state of Russia's football today and always (Yashin)? You see the state of Brazilian football today (look how many were included and how many YOU are adding) yet you discount an Italian on the basis of their football today. Surely you can understand the difference between "all-time" and "today".
3. Since you posit the state of Italian football today (which, by the way, Pirlo is not a part of), why don't you decry the inclusion of Maldini?
4. Since you posit the state of Italian football today (which, by the way, Pirlo is not a part of), why did you include Baggio?
5. With reticence, I say this, don't challenge me on Italian football, WRONG GUY!!!
