Here’s rankings 30-21 of our top 50 and we are getting down to the business end now! What are your thoughts? 👀

How has Mbappe frauded his way into the top 30 😭

I am biased and of a certain age, but would anyone else hope/expect to see Cantona in the top 20? Remember I am a touch Biased, but what a talent

Maldini is the best defender of all time imo (alongside Bobby Moore 😉). Should be top 10. Absolute Rolls Royce.
donaghcorby19974w ago
I see the concern with Maldini but end of the day a defender will need to be something special to be top ten

Very true… it’s harder to create a house than knock a house down in the words of Michael Owen
dancoombs4w ago
I actually think Ronaldinho is overrated and should not be top 40
jamesshearman234w ago
Love this take! He had a short career at the top
kyle.dimond4w ago
Hard to rank Mbappe because he still has so many top level years left. There better be some defenders I’m forgetting if they’re higher than Baresi and Maldini. Gold standards
james.brooke4w ago
Would love to know the criteria here. Mbappe shouldn’t be in the top 25 for me. Hasn’t fulfilled his potential yet
dancoombs4w ago
Criteria is recency bias

So being the World Cup’s all-time top scorer isn’t anything worth writing home about? 😭

Stanley Matthews 😂 better than Mo Salah is he

Won the first Balon D’Or at 41, and played his final professional game for Stoke at 50. Makes Ronaldo look like a young buck. His England career spanned over 22 years - the longest spanning England career in history. Played in over 1000 games.

Mbappe shouldn’t be that low. He should be top 15
markmarston4w ago
Spot on

Ronaldinho and Mbappe should be way higher here… going to be some real sneaks in this top 20
matthew.johns4w ago
I struggle to believe there are 30+ players better then the likes of Ronaldinho, Mbappe and Maldini!
markmarston4w ago
There isn’t!

In future it would be good to have one of these for keepers (top 20 maybe), defenders, midfielders and attackers. Comparing Moore to Mbappe or Maldini to Ronaldinho is impossible. How is Mbappe in Goal and how was Baresi in attack.. All were effective and magnificent players, but apples and oranges.
will.butcher4w ago
Maldini has to be top 3 defenders of all time. Madness that he’s that low. Same for Mbappe - best attacker in World Cup history
peter.lynch4w ago
Get Ronaldinho in that top 10 now. Skill and entertainment 10/10, easy top 10 player 💃
jordan.harris4w ago
Baresi only at 31???? What are we doing here
markmarston4w ago
There’s no way your old enough to remember Baresi Jord!

Mbappe is too low - and not sure about Gullit. He wouldn’t be in my top 50.
markmarston4w ago
Kylian Mbappe 34th? So there are 33 better players than him? How? The best World Cup player in history 😭😭
aaditya.krishnamurthy4w ago
yeah id agree but the problem is Mbappe’s career outside of the WC, which I concede is the most important tournament, is woefully lopsided - one UCL final, a few French League titles, disappointing Euros performances - is the World Cup enough to get him above some of the players above him who have done it on all stages?
peter.lynch4w ago
He’ll be top 5 in 10 years 😉
thetruthpersonified4w ago
Gullit is easily top 20 and potentially top 10. People forget how good he was...
chillout4w ago
I think he was forgettable
