Now, have you ever seen such unbelievable biased bullshit? Where the **** is Thierry Henry? Where on God's green earth is Bergkamp? Aren't they both better than Ruud, Cantona, Lineker, Figo, Becks and more?

5° Beckenbauer

Sometimes I think they produce these lists just to make it clear to the world that they don't rate any Arsenal players. Bergkamp and Henry should surely be there somewhere.

 

[Gurgen]

Zidane has won it, Beckenbauer is 2nd and the legendary Johan Cruijff is only 3rd :roll:

What utter bs.

 

[Soler]

Bergkamp is not on the list, yet Van Nistelrooy is. What a crock.

 

[Gurgen]

Wtf has Ruud done for Dutch football? Bergkamp has performed brilliantly in every major tournament in the 90ies.

 

[Aussie]

These sort of lists are always a joke.

 

[Taozhe]

RUbbish. Anti Arsenal list I fear

 

[thierrys_girl]

where are the arsenal players?

no henry but ruud made it :shock: it must be a joke

 

[bobbypires]

What are they saying? Are there only 21 players better than Beckham in the last 50 years? Hahaha

 

[JazzG]

Lists which are usually chosen by people voting online are usually wrong.

 

[Gurgen]

This is an UEFA-list. It's 'official'. But we all know the truth don't we..

 

[The Mini]

The dude who made it has some sense, Alfredo Di Stefano and Puskas and Eusibo are all amazing, as is Van Basten and Cruyff and nearly everyone on the list.

 

[Gurgen]

Nearly, there is still Ruud there. And Posh Boy.
