[Brad]

wow a great list choice some very good footballers there have to agree with number 1

[TOON FAN]

Well I'm not to sure, where is "Shearer"?

Premier League all time goal scorer should be on that list.

Thanks Brian

[Scott]

not even george best was there

[Scott]

my top 10 from the above list

1. Pele
2. Zinedine Zidane
3. Marco Van Basten
4. Michel Platini
5. Johan Cruyff
6. Jurgen Klinsmann
7. Eusebio
8. Dennis Bergkamp
9. Peter Schmeichel
10. Gary Linekar

[sportie]

It really hard to compare 1 player with another since they all come from the different time period. Pele could be the greatest but the game back then was much more different. My fav is still Maradona

[mad_jaguar]

yeah...is a true list...pele is the best :)

[blm2007]

awesome collection man,how did you manage it. all the golden names in one serial. thanks for the effort and share man.

[robert]

i never saw Pele playing..my bad luck but i say Ronaldo and Zinedine Zidane and to me they are the best!!

[l00ky]

Gheorghe Hagi is my favourite of them all....i`ve seen him playing many times and now he is a coach.He was a great player:D

[JoelManiac]

Id have to say Ronaldinho would be a bit further up.

[Riversider]

No Georgie Best?

[hjhjh220]

Good work .. i love your list but i thins so . Zinedine Zidane
is the best player in the whole world

[kenada]

Pele is the best player to have lived, closely followed by Maradona, Eusebio, George Best and Franz Beckenbauer.

I don't believe Figo deserves to be so high in the list.

[sanjay]

this list really contains the name of all the awesome players. They all are so talented that its too difficult to choose top 10 among them.But i saw that some of my favourite players are missing.

[sanju123]

I think this a great piece of information.I think Pele is the number one footballer of all times.But I think that Maradona should be on the Number 2 spot.He has done wonders for Argentina.

[jasonbond]

strangely he did`nt make the top 100 but gary neville and a player from iran did

not even george best was there

[Jim Hardy]

Football world has produced hundreds of stars and legends, it would be I bit conservative to rank upon personal preferences but I love all those who came to scene from Brazil for their passion and style of game. Diego Maradona is my all time favorite.

[Ade198801]

They are really talented. They are the best!
