Default Re: Top 20 Soccer Players

if he's at his peak right now and it's a stretch to have him in the top 20 how the [censored] do you expect him to improve to a top ten player?

Because players rank based on the sum total of what they have accomplished, and obviously Henry is going to accomplish a lot more before he's through. I'm just ranking him around #20 based on what he's done -right now-. You're confusing the -talent- of a player with the -accomplishments- of a player. Maradona was the most -talented- player who ever lived, but he didn't DO quite what Pele did, hence Pele was the better player. It's not about what a player CAN do or what he SHOULD HAVE done, but what he DID done. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
