Interesting to see Henry "so low". Was being branded the best PL player ever by some near the back end of 03-04. Hindsight caught up to him?

No Robert I notice, then again who can argue with the likes of Lombardo and Kassey Keller being in there :rolleyes:.

 

Think Schmiechel should be in the top 3.

bergkamp and zola are always too high, the london media over-rate them. Had Solano and Albert played for london clubs at their peak, instead of in their waning years, they'd probably be top 20 instead of near the end below some real shite. same probably applies to Fabrizio Ravenelli, one debut season in the top flight (like berbatov when i imagine this list was compiled) for a relegated side and he scores 31 goals. also got into double figures for derby too later in his career.

 

agree about schmiechel UV.
