As some of you may have noticed, threads about football have a bad habit of becoming OT. So, this thread is for that discussion that doesn't belong to other football threads.
I'll start to continue the debate about former stars players:
Did either Poland or Belgium have a star player before [wiki]Aulis Rytkönen[/wiki]? He was a star player in France, some even said that he was almost as good as star players like Raymond Kopa. He almost moved to Atlético Madrid, but something got in the way of his transfer and Aulis went to Toulouse instead, where he played when Toulouse got promoted to French premier league and won the French Cup. Like Jari Litmanen, he was rated much higher abroad than in Finland.
