If I were Gary Neville, I would be particularly smug around Paul Scholes in training tomorrow, he is apparently a better player than him!

No George Best either, which confirms this list is a crock of shite

Re: Gary Neville deemed to be the 86th greatest player....ever

No way. Not a mention for Carlos Alberto Torres, Tostao or my fav all time player Jairzinho, in fact just put down the Brazil, 19-70, 74 teams, it doesn't get any better than that, apart fae the Hibs team. Pile of kack.

Hmmm. Diego 6th,Ali Daei above Hagi and no Garrincha. A joke list. The absence of the theif Bobby Moore is a plus though.

Re: Gary Neville deemed to be the 86th greatest player....ever

Looking at the list I'd guess they have used a weighting system taking account of

international caps/goals
world cup wins/apps/goals
European Cup wins/apps/goals
Domestic championships wins

They didn't make a very good job of it either

from the article.


Apparently the list gives points for goals scored by forwards and clean sheets for defenders. Players also get awarded for cups won, being captain and the level they played at.

Re: Gary Neville deemed to be the 86th greatest player....ever

Top 20-odd seems reasonable enough.

All goes a bit bad after that.

Reminds me of the famous Man City chant.. "If Gary Neville can play for England so can I".

Re: Gary Neville deemed to be the 86th greatest player....ever

The top 20-25 seems fair enough (Best omission apart) but after that is seems to be populated with (mostly) post-1990 european dross!!

Why no Joe Baker? Arsenal and Hibs legend with an astonishing strike rate.

Is Jimmy Greaves in there?

Tottenham Hotspur played 321 scored 220
