Ballack in his pomp
How highly did you rate Michael Ballack in his peak?
I think in the past decade and a half only Xavi, Zidane and Scholes were better over the course of their careers IMO.

Easily TOP5...
Right behind Xavi, Pirlo, Wilshere and maybe Scholes.

Top 5 for sure, he was quite the force of Nature at his very best... i still remember the relief I felt when he was suspended for the final... Not to say we wouldn't of whipped his ass but still he was a scary opponent...

Top 5 definitely.
Absolutely dominant during his Bayern Munich years and in terms of international football, he was possibly the best midfielder in the world for Germany between the 02 and 06 WCs.
Top, top player that should've won more than he actually ended up winning both for clubs and country.

Top 5 midfielder for me, beast at midfield, Wc freekicks and always was a danger in front of a goal.

Re: How highly did you rate Michael Ballack in his peak?
His peak would probably have to be his Leverkusen and Bayern Munich days.
He was consistently the best German player during that period and still was until 2008.
He was magnificent in the 2002 World Cup as well as he always has been efficient for his National Team.
Without a doubt Top 5 for me.

Re: How highly did you rate Michael Ballack in his peak?
He was still pretty damn good in his Chelsea days. Most underrated player in Chelsea's peak form. Definitely deserved that CL.
Now in his Leverkusen and Bayern days... pfff. Top 5 easily.

Easily top 5.
Terrific player and probably the unluckiest player of his generation.
One of my favorite players ever.

Reached Top 5 IMO.
I think Deco should also be treated as such.
So many players that make in the S Tier.

Hm. As he's Ballack, unfortunately he can't be the *best* of his generation. Poor guy. At least it is likely that Vizekusen will at least become second of their group. Ballack has a 2nd place subscription. ^^

Top 5, hated seeing this guy play against us
Really a shame on the runner-up finishes though.

Re: How highly did you rate Michael Ballack in his peak?
One of the most complete midfielders to ever live. Really, think about it. Is there any position you couldnt put Ballack in his prime in where he wouldnt do well? I dont think so. Best mid of his generation, or at least top 3.

If Jose Mourinho had to make a prototype for the perfect midfielder, ballack would be the result.
