  • Chelsea, Bayern Munich and Germany legend Michael Ballack joins Jeff Stelling to discuss his Top 5 Bundesliga players.
    Which midfielder was the best player Michael Ballack played with during his career? Who has seen off all-comers at Bayern Munich? Who has changed the way his position on the football pitch is played?
    As well as picking his Top 5, Ballack gives his opinion on England’s Jude Bellingham, marks out what has impressed him about Xabi Alonso’s managerial career so far and recalls how he felt when his former clubs Chelsea and Bayern Munich contested the 2012 Champions League Final.

    This is Football's Greatest with Jeff Stelling, a weekly podcast where the legendary host sits down with icons of the sport - one on one - to talk about those who made a difference in the beautiful game from a players’ perspective: the top keepers, the toughest defenders, the silkiest midfielders and the deadliest strikers.
    The show will also look at those who had great influence off the pitch too - the successful managers, the funniest team-mates and the most impressive leaders in the dressing room - and pay homage to indelible moments from the biggest competitions like the Premier League, Champions League and the World Cup.
    Broken down into two individual episodes with each guest, Football’s Greatest will take you inside the dressing rooms of some of the best soccer teams the world has ever seen. You will hear stories that surprise you, that make you laugh out loud and that you will be thinking of and telling people about for days after.

      Jamal Musiala is so silky - Arsenal have to worry about him tonight more than Kane

    I watched an interview the other day with that Jordan bloke from talksport, he pronounced Leverkusen as levercowsun? I thought Michael did a hell of a job not to walk out during jordans constant interruptions and rudeness.
    Its nice to see him speaking to yourself mate, much more refined and classy.

    Classy man. An absolute monster of a midfielder and always wished he’d signed for Utd instead of Chelsea! Unlucky with his injuries.

    ballack is always such a class act. it was very polite of him to say that bellingham is already better than he was despite the fact thats it was a blatant lie just to make you english guys feel better 😆

      despite they haven't won a title back then. the team with emerson, ze roberto, lucio, ballack and on was exiting to watch back in the days.

    Easy there Michael! He looks a great player but better than you already? Not yet.

      Are you going to argue with Ballack? The man admits it himself.

      @@sherazmalik2179 He's just being humble..Jude is a beast BUT, go look at the squads of Madrid vs Leverkusen back then. At his current age maybe (compared to Ballack at the same age), but let him at least reach a CL final (Leverkusen) or carry a legendary country at one of their lowest points to a WC final (If England will ever reach that again). Forgot Germany also were in the final of Euro 08 as well btw, captained by...

    Michael Ballack you must be happy for Leverkusen
    Jeff what do you think Chelsea should do with Poch

    • @footballsgreatestpod
      @footballsgreatestpod  Před měsícem +1

      Who else is out there to replace Poch at the moment? 🤔

      @TORRES999ify Před měsícem

      Yeh stick with the manager. Proven good coach , as above said who else out there that would also cone to Chelsea right now.
      Then he wants his own new signings, doesn't fancy other players they're already stuck with. Chopping amd changing manger isn't always the answer

    • @SamCovington-fh7ek

      Just get John Terry until the end of the season
      Or get Hansi Flick look he was sensational at Bayern

    I wonder if "Ballack's neat pass to Kuntz" was ever said by a commentator?

    Emerson went to Juve then Real Madrid…. Definitely a great player.

      Ballack was a classy player for so many years, exciting to see what's to come for Jude though
