The greatest footballer in Europe after Johan Cryuff who had to retire forcibly due to devastating injury which ended his carrier early and put his admirers into tears. I remember, I was shocked to read when the newspapers wrote "Van Basten misses the 1994 USA world cup squad due to injury". The deadly trio of Holland & AC Milan Van Basten, Rijkaard, Gullit were fearsome to the international teams and European clubs more or equal to the very recent combo of Barcelona - Messi,Suarez,Neymar !

The greatest ever striker in my choice during 90's. The rivalry between him and his contemporary German striker Jurgen Klinsmann in football was just become myth now.
