These bums don't have the great Manuel Neuer on the list :lol:
Suarez seems low at 24 too. Mbappe way too high at 6. He still has a lot of career to go, though in World Cup his scoring is amazing.

Modric above Xavi AND Iniesta is bzarre, despite his brilliance. Henry at third is obviously laughable too.

Other notable omissions include the likes of Ribery, Robben and Di Maria. But I get that it's very tough competition.

I mean, if Buffon is 25, then I don't expect another GK on the list.

Kind of funny, because this century had many historical GK, the trio of Cech, Buffon and Casillas were amazing for too long. Then Neuer obviously, and then you have Cortouis. All of those are all timers.

That isn't counting the "ordinary great" GK like Oblak, Van der Sar, Alison
I think Neuer was better than Buffon overall and if there's only gonna be one GK there, it should be Neuer. Of course they should both be there most likely.

I also prefer Alisson to Courtois and Casillas but it is splitting hairs as all three were great.

These lists are always subjective. There is no single criterion that all fans agree on when evaluating a player. Much also depends on how successful the team was in the player's period, so luck plays a role too. For example, I guarantee you that Kroos wouldn't have made into that list if Madrid wouldn't have won so many CLs in his time.

That's very true, all of that.

To back up the point about subjectivity, there's an argument (not that I would necessarily agree) that Lahm, Neuer and/or Schweinsteiger are German players more deserving of a placing in that list than Kroos.
