:shock: Who did they hire to analyse those stats? Title: Top 100 EVER Post by: Matchworn Shirts on Friday, November 9, 2007, 16:39:40 Beckenbauer below Ronaldo, Romario, Zidane, Figo and Maradona :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick: :Ride On Fatbury's Lovestick:
Total bollocks, why is Bobby Charlton so far down the list? Title: Top 100 EVER Post by: Bogus Dave on Friday, November 9, 2007, 16:43:17 You can't judge a best all-time player anyway, is a world class centre back better than a world class striker. and gary neville should be much higher on that list
Title: Top 100 EVER Post by: dell boy on Friday, November 9, 2007, 16:51:56 Agree about Beckenbauer being too far down the list, would be in my top 5, one of the greatest players I have ever seen, with just a drop of his shoulder he would make so much space for himself, he was pure class not just defending but also going forward.
No Paul Gasgoigne in the top 100, but Sylvain Wiltord rated No 58. Title: Top 100 EVER Post by: Hmonkey on Friday, November 9, 2007, 17:55:40 no George Best

Title: Top 100 EVER Post by: sonic youth on Friday, November 9, 2007, 18:21:08 ali daei probably deserves to be in the top 100 but 26 is far too high.

Title: Top 100 EVER Post by: Lumps on Monday, November 12, 2007, 13:26:15 This list is the most possibly the most effective example I've ever seen of the argument that you can prove anything you like with statistics.
Because it's based on team performances, and doesn't seem to differentiate between the relative strengths of different domestic leagues, it means that the whole socring system is slanted in the favour of: * Outstanding players who choose to stay playing for the most dominant club in a minor nations league set up - Hence Pele who never played club football outside Brazil (except for that tin pot football circus in the US) scores incredibly well. * Unspectacular but reliable Steady Eddie types that play for really successful clubs also do really well - See Gary Neville. Which means that a player like Maradona, who's international success was in a team of otherwise fairly ordinary players, and who managed club success at a team like Napoli. Who was absolutely fundamental to both those sides being anything but average, is outpointed by the likes of Romario.
