Bobby Moore makes it to number 23 on TalkingPoints' 50 best footballers of all time! Should he be higher? 🤔

YUP!

23 seems to be low for one of the best ever defenders to represent England. Top 5 would be nearer the mark.

Should be number 1

eddy1mo ago

Troublr is attacking playets will.always be chosen against defenders no matter how great Bobby was. If they rated players by positions, ie goalkeepers, defenders, midfield or attackers that would see Bobby as between 1-5

Yeah it’s tough this. How do you compare Bobby Moore to Ronaldinho for instance! For Bobby to be that cultured and smooth when the pitches were like mud bath occasionally tells its own story for

antonymmartin841mo ago

Yeah, best centre half of all time. Definitely top 10. Pele spoke very highly of him as well

Top 3 in the world for Mooro

He should be much higher according to Beckenbauer, Pele, Jack and Bobby Charlton, Jock Stein, Sir Alex and many others, plus anyone who ever saw him in his pomp. Like a great actor he had a unique presence on the field and an ability to read the game that no one has come near...

I think he’d probably be higher if footage of him playing was more readily available!

I do think that he should be placed at No1 on this list, and also be given a posthumous Knighthood, and also made a posthumous Lord, and the Wembley Stadium should be re-named the Bobby Moore Memorial Stadium, and of course all future England teams will play in Claret & Blue, and all future England Captains must be named Bobby

Can't imagine too many defenders ranking higher

dodkins20001mo ago

I think def top 10 best English player ever

luckyforsome131mo ago

Top 5 for me.

wendy.a.james1mo ago

The only English Captain to lift the World Cup- 23??? One of the Hammers Captain lifting European Trophy- 23??? Calm, controlled under pressure, admired by Pele - 23??? Sorry top 10 minimum standing

tonydavis3961mo ago

Definately.

hinchliff141mo ago

Bobby Moore for me,should be higher than 23rd for sure.

chillout1mo ago

Yes - I think that is wrong. He should be between 10 - 20.

The only player is football history who ever came close to Moore was Frank Beckenbauer. No one else.
