Title: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: hhyftrftdr on December 20, 2018, 09:19:12 PM The top 10 have yet to be released, but deconstruct 11-100.
The biggest crimes appear to be Pickford, Alli, DDG, Lukaku. PEA seems way too far down the list. Top 10 must include Messi, Ronny, KDB, Salah, Mbappe, Kane (lol), Hazard. https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2018/dec/18/the-100-best-male-footballers-in-the-world-2018-nos-100-71?CMP=fb_gu&fbclid=IwAR28OZ48pfpXHmI3dQZkmK6UebhnsmPn0kqCfNUCjTrAR0Nw9IxD4FwFnm8 Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: DropTheHammer on December 20, 2018, 09:29:56 PM Pogba 16!!!? That is a huge LOL.
Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: horseplayer on December 20, 2018, 10:12:43 PM looks fine
Godin low at 35 as is his partner in crime Hernandez at 69 Kane in the top 10 is standard ask fans in other countries he is rated world class without a question Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: scotty2hatty on December 20, 2018, 10:46:16 PM Yeah, I don't get the Kane lol comment either. Could likely play for any team in the world.
Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: hhyftrftdr on December 20, 2018, 11:02:45 PM I don't think Kane should be considered amongst the top 10 best footballers in the world. He's probably not a million miles away, but I'd say he's not even the best forward in the PL. That he's ahead of the likes of Suarez and Aguero in the list is worthy of an lol.
Didn't realise Pogba was so high, another lol. Thinking it'll be something like... 1; Mbappe 2; Messi 3; Ronaldo 4; Salah 5; KDB Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: dino1980 on December 21, 2018, 12:48:20 AM Mbappe won't be number one...yet. He will at some point but now is too soon imo.
Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: youthnkzR on December 21, 2018, 03:59:41 AM By far biggest crime is Lukaku in the top 50 (41st) on this list.... Shouldn't even be in the top couple of hundred.
32nd seems a bit generous for Icardi too. Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: DungBeetle on December 21, 2018, 09:38:11 AM Van Dijk and Walker are too low. Would upgrade nearly every team in the world. Cavani too high at 21 (flat track bully). Pickford and Lukaku should not be on list. I’d put David Silva top 10.
Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: Archer on December 21, 2018, 10:24:58 AM Final top 10 as per guardian:
Modric Ronaldo Messi Mbappe Salah Griezman Hazard KDB Kane Kante Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: Pokerpops on December 21, 2018, 04:37:29 PM I read back over previous years and tbh, with the exception of the Top 4 or 5 each year the rest of the rankings seem pretty arbitrary.
Almost as though they wrote a list of the 95 that weren’t in the Top 5 and just drew positions at random. Some of the 95 were a bit surprising too. Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: hhyftrftdr on December 21, 2018, 05:48:25 PM Hmmm, Modric the best footballer in the world in 2018? I'm not convinced.
One of my mates said he's gone from being underrated a few years ago to overrated these days, feels like a decent assessment. Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: Chompy on December 22, 2018, 12:25:43 AM VVD not in the top 20, so pfft.
Title: Re: Top 100 footballers 2018 Post by: horseplayer on December 22, 2018, 01:02:18 PM Fancy Lukaku to have a good second half of season
personal reasons with suggestion may be his dad who had died after a long illness, would explain his seemingly lack of interest/fitness last few months |
