5)alfredo di stefano
6)marco van basten
7)paolo maldini

Ok i dont know half those players :|
Edson Arantes do Nascimento ( Brasil )  
Pele

Franz Beckenbauer    ( Germany )
Francisco Gento      ( Spain   )
Ferenc Puskas        ( Ungarn  )
Johan Cruyff         ( Niederlande )
George Best          ( Northern Ireland )
Stan Libuda          ( Germany )
Zinedine Zidane      ( France  )
Luiz Nazario de Lima ( Brasil  )     
Ronaldo
 
Luigi Riva           ( Italien )



I would think that Maradona and Pele would take the top two spots (although Maradona was on charlie all the time). After that there are many great players - all of those mentioned, especially Best, Platini, Cryuff, Beckenbauer. What about Zico, Bobby Charlton, Geoff Hurst (England's '66 final hero), Paulo Rossi, Socrates, Dino Zoff, Rudi Voller, Romario, Batistuta or Gordon Banks? These players achieved a lot more than Scholes, Giggs or Raul ever will do.
u are right but i have not seen them play
some class players mentioned there and they are all greats, ill have a think about my list.
mine is

Pele
George best
Franz Beckenbauer
Maradona
Platini
Kenny Dalglish ( everyone forget about this guy or what)
Gordon Banks
Duncan Edwards
Bobby moore

couldnt leave this guy out and i know he is 11 but i think he was pure class, the golden boy of soccer.

Wilf Mannion

i cant count now, lol that is 10 but i missed out Platini
i give in, i included him. forget it .lol

ummm... right now they are to my opinion:

(no order)
henry
ronaldinho
RONALDO
ZIDANE
maldini
CASILLAS
Kahn
buffon
OWEN
Robinho (future star)
WAT ABOUT zola and Rudd gullit

NOT IN ORDER
1=henry(arsenal)
2=ronaldo(real madrid)
3=shearer(newcastle)
4=woodgate(real madrid)
5=roberto carlos(real madrid)
6=mendoza(emlec)
7=lampard(chelsea)
8=terry(chelsea)
9=drogba(chelsea)
10=ferdinand(manchester united)
Dear God, :|

Woodgate as one of the top 10 football players ever?

If you're going to do Newcastle players, at least do some legends.
woodgate? i dont like that guy, real madrid got him last offseason and he hasen't even played a game yet cuz he is "injured". i dont think he is worth the money real madrid payed for him, well i haven't seen him play cuz his been injured all this time, but when he does i hope he makes it good. and he can't be one of the best ever, he is not even 25 yet
Walter Payton
Lawrence Taylor
Joe Theisman
Barry Sanders
Emmitt Smith
OJ Simpson
Joe Montana
Jerry Rice
John Elway
Reggie White

USA version.(y)
Hey Golfer... I know nothing about US Football, but how does Dan Marino rank?
he definetely ranks up there, the list isn't big enough.  he could replace anyone on that list.  good

CRAIG BELLAMY LOL 
lol, Craig Bellamy, what a legend, shame none of us have ever heard of him :-P
>CRSITIANO RONALDO!!! He is going to be best player ever in the world 

Doesn't he have to start playing good football first?
in no order:
Giggs
Shearer
Shevchenco
Maradona
Mendonza(Plays for emelc in the ecuador lge)
Forlan
Pele
Beardsley
Terry
Schmichael
(Sorry for bad grammar and spelling;))
Giggs
Shearer
Shevchenco
Maradona
Mendonza(Plays for emelc in the ecuador lge)
Forlan
Pele
Beardsley
Terry
Schmichael


Giggs isnt top player at Man U so how can he be in top 10 players ever? Diego Forlan? If so you must of only watched him when he has scored his handful of goals not even in top 200 stirkers of all time. Terry great player but no where near good enough for top 10. And last but not least Schmichael very good goalkeeper but isnt best there ever has been in his position so him being in there also is total crap.
Sorry to be tough on your choices but it is true and from that list its pretty clear to me you have no idea about football.
Best players from the past :
Maradona (best player ever)
Pelé
Eusébio
Van Basten

Best players still playing :
Ronaldinho Gaucho
Deco
Henry
Lampard
Gerrard
C.Ronaldo
Shevchenko
Zlatan
Zidane
i agree wi pauloo u ave absolutly no idea about football do u :S now on to the fella who put totti in his best ever wtf r u doin u do kno tht totti isnt even regarded as one of the best in the italian league these days alot of ppl jus puttin players down who ppl neva heard off n jus sayin there good n coz no1 knows who they r they jus agree :p like the last post who th hell is zlatan unless it ibrhamovic thn i am mistaken but he is bloody useless n nowere nr one of best players goin now but i was only jokin bout bellamy before but if he can get in bellamy got more chance thn eva alot of u suck at choosin footy players no offence to ppl who ave actually chose decent players 
The only player currently playing that is good enough to get in list of top ten is Ronaldinho. Zidane would also be in it but not in current from ( 2000-2001). Shevechenko possibly from his performences 3 years ago. There is no other player that is still playing today that could be in top 10 greatest players of all time
cant believe it took 3 posts for pele's name to appear. i must be gettin old

yeah,my list is a little extreme,lol,its a mix between my favorite players and good players:p
were is Best, Chalton (Di stefano who won 5 europeon cups)Cruyff, Romario, Ziadane,
