Not that I can see but I might have missed him. They have Messi at 51 then admit he's been poo poo at world cups too

The Guardian has been doing some top 100 world cup players and he wasn't in the top 20 smh

It also had Klinsmann at 96, which is the biggest headscratcher for me. I mean, that's a guy who's scored like 11 WC goals and actually won the thing placed behind Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo or even Gascoigne (lol).

Since the "World Cup" is technically only the final of the whole World Cup, things done in the qualifiers count as well, so Ronaldo deserves mention for dragging his poo poo team to the finals, basically by himself. That Portugal won't make it far in the finals themselves is not Ronaldo's fault. If he manages to get them through the group stages he deserves a place on the list.

He's a good player but seriously now the 30th or 35th or whatever it is best world cup player of all time?

It is a dumb list is my point.

e: Like yes ok he can be on the list but I mean look at the players he's ahead of.


e: Also Phillip Lahm is one spot ahead of Klinsmann who is number 96.
