Zinedine Zidane got off to a bumpy start for Real Madrid last year after his record $68.6 million transfer from Juventus. Amateur football accountants quickly began to suggest that the price paid for the French midfielder had been a mistake. They could be right, Zidane might be worth even more. Let's audit his account: World Cup Champion, European Champion, Serie A champion, and now Champions League winner. Win or lose, his ability to bend a game in his favour the way he bends the ball around defenders has made this player the best one. =========================================================================
