Player comparison, who's better?

Not much football on today so to kill some time. Putting together players of similar ability, who's better iyo? I've put my answers there just for fun but it is your answers that matter?

Brazilian Ronaldo or Maradona - Maradona
Figo or Rivaldo - Rivaldo
Lucas or Wilshire - Lucas
Carroll or Heskey - Heskey
Pele or Portuguese Ronaldo - Ronaldo (pele overrrated imo)
Gerrard or Iniesta (in their primes) - Gerrard (seriously he WAS a beast)
Scholes or Xavi (in their primes) - Scholes had more of a goal threat
Vidic or Stam - Vidic
Schmiechel or Buffon - Schmiechel for incredible saves, Buffon for consistency
Suarez or Bent - Suaraz better player, Bent better striker
Seedorf or Viera - Seedorf just
Beckham or Pires - Beckham
Ljungberg or Davids - don't know
Ferdinand or Terry (in their primes) - don't know

ps: admin can you post this on a few more boards

Lucas better than Wilshere?
--------------------------
At the moment I would say he is more effective and experienced. No doubt Wilshire will become a top player a better though

Fair enough, Lucas is an odd one to me, Seem to remember people calling for his head no so long ago, but seems to have had a good season and now people rate him highly.

Do you think he has peaked early, or will continue to develop?

----------------------------
I remember he was hated by liverpool fans initially but the last 2 seasons he has become a very reliable player. As for peaking too early? Not really because of the type of player he is. It's like he depends on pace or creative ability, he's more of a stopper and players like that normally don't need to continue to develop imo

I meant to say it's not like he depends on pace or creative ability

-----------------------------------
He was special but most of his goals were in a weaker league against weaker defenders. I think the modern game is a lot different and defenders are smarter now and better athletes

Not sure whether this is a wind up or not (never am with voice), but i'll give it a serious response:

Brazilian Ronaldo or Maradona - Never saw Maradona
Figo or Rivaldo - Rivaldo
Lucas or Wilshire - Wilshere
Carroll or Heskey - Heskey
Pele or Portuguese Ronaldo - Never saw Pele
Gerrard or Iniesta (in their primes) - Iniesta
Scholes or Xavi (in their primes) - Xavi, just.
Vidic or Stam - Vidic
Schmiechel or Buffon - Schmiechel
Suarez or Bent - Suarez
Seedorf or Viera - Seedorf
Beckham or Pires - Beckham
Ljungberg or Davids - Played in completely different positions. I'd take Davids though.
Ferdinand or Terry (in their primes) - Rio

By the comments can I assume this is Lucas Leiva, not Lucas Moura?
