Manoel Francisco dos Santos (October 28, 1933 – January 20, 1983), known by the nickname "Garrincha" ("little bird"). He was a Brazilian football right winger and forward who helped the Brazil national team win the World Cups of 1958 and 1962. He is considered one of the best dribblers in football history, and the best Brazilian player ever after Pelé.The word garrincha itself means wren.
Garrincha was born in Pau Grande, a district of Magé, in the state of Rio de Janeiro, in 1933. He had several birth defects: his spine was deformed, his right leg bent inwards and his left leg six centimeters shorter and curved outwards; yet he still became one of the greatest players in football history, due to his ball handling, explosiveness and dribbling skills, along with being a very effective shooter and crosser. He had the ability to turn on himself at top speed, which he used to great effect. The constant attacks and goal opportunities he generated from individual plays on the right wing would often end on an accurate pass to a teammate in position to score.The success he had on the football pitch had great contrast with his personal life.
Garrincha played 50 international matches for Brazil between 1955 and 1966, and appeared in the 1958, 1962 and 1966 World Cups. Brazil only lost one match with him on the pitch, against Hungary at the 1966 World Cup. Pelé did not play the game against Hungary, and thus Brazil never lost when Garrincha and he were on the same team.
.........the best dribbler of all-time, and can match him today, Cristiano, not Giggs with his lack of control, not Ronaldo, not Zizou, not anyone...

Cristiano Ronaldo must be the flashiest dribbler in football today, but he's nowhere near the best. Ryan Giggs is twice as effective as Ronaldo and at 33, still glides past players with ease. I'd vote for Arjen Robben as the best dribbler though. When he's free of injury and in full flight, even the best defenders in the world would have a problem closing him down.

Ronaldinho, that goes without saying. Go to nikefootball.com and download any of his videos. You'll see what I mean. N what's best is that he does this on the pitch also.
All in all, the 10 best current dribblers in order are:
1.Ronaldinho (Barcelona)
2.Thierry Henry (Arsenal)
3.Cristiano Ronaldo (Man Utd)
4.Lionel Messi (Barcelona)
5.Samuel Eto'o (Barcelona)
6.Arjen Robben (Chelsea)
7.Robinho (Real Madrid)
8.Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Inter Milan)
9.Ricardo Quaresma (Sporting Lisbon)
10.Diego (Werder Bremen)

Well, that list is my opinion n i hoped it helped you. But the first three are the very best in dribbling...

everyone have their good and bad day, but if i have to choose, i prefer the dutchmen, Robin Van Persie and Arjen Robben. they are very good dribbler. if they have the ball, nobody can take it from them.
