Best ever player
With Johann Cruyffs untimely passing today it got me to thinking who are the top ten all time players in your opinion? Some we may not have seen but are acknowledged as true greats.
My choice in no order (which will undoubtedly change when I remember others!):
1. Pele
2. Di Stefano
3. Messi
4. Maradona (as much as I don't like him!)
5. Cruyff
6. Moore
7. Beckenbauer
8. Eusebio
9. Best
10. Charlton
Also rans: Puskas, Beckham, Ronaldo
Yours?

Cruyff the best of his.
I don't feel you can compare players of different generations.
Muller
Pele
Messi
Not in order but its the closest I'm going to get
For me Beckham, Ronaldo and Puskas didn't make my top ten and as I said they are in no order.
You need to think of a player who has played all round the world !
Maradona
Messi
with the others behind
Moore and even Moore
Because I like players who are committed to the cause.
I had the good fortune to be up graded to Virgin Upper class on a trip to New York, Beckham was on the flight and he was simply a really nice guy to talk to, Brooklyn was just a toddler and although he was looking after him, he found time to speak to all who wanted to chat to him without any airs and graces whatsoever.
He went up a load of notches in my book after that flight
