Notes

As the year 2000 approached, World Soccer, the English international football magazine established in 1960, conducted a poll of its readers to choose the 100 greatest players of the 20th century.  Voters picked their top 10 players in order of preference.  Points were assigned to each vote a player gained, 10 points for a 1st place vote, 9 points for a 2nd place vote and so on down to 1 point for a 10th place vote.  World Soccer published the poll results in its December, 1999 issue.  Predictably, Pele ran away with 1st place.

Polls of this sort commonly suffer twin defects; they give disproportionate weight to the views of younger football fans, who are much more likely to vote than their elders and yet much less likely to have as broad a perspective, and to the views of fans in the country where the publisher of the poll is located.  While it is based in England, World Soccer has a worldwide readership, and its readers are relatively sophisticated football fans.  As the magazine itself noted, "Despite the enormous growth in media coverage of the game since the advent of colour TV, nearly all the Top 10 were in their prime many years ago."  It also claimed that "in general our voters opted for" choices representing "long-lasting class rather than fly-by-night tabloid-and-telly hysteria" and that the poll results "bear out the view" that "our readers are more discerning than those of other football magazines." 

Nevertheless, the entire list of players selected as the top 100 demonstrates beyond doubt that the usual defects flawed the World Soccer poll, albeit perhaps not as severely as most popular polls.  World Soccer itself noted, "The majority of nominations were for English players, which is hardly a shock in view of the magazine's base."  Moreover, the inclusion of some players who had only recently begun to shine, the exclusion of stellar stars of the past and the relative placement of both past and present stars were often bewildering. 

The voters' marked preference for the recent put beyond the pale even some of England's most celebrated players of the past.  While Michael Owen and David Beckham, still beginning to establish themselves as England stars when the vote was taken, finished in the top 50, Jimmy Greaves, England's greatest modern-day scorer with 44 goals in 57 internationals and 357 goals in 516 top-division league games, collected just 24 points and was not among the top 100.  Neither Tommy Lawton, 14 points, nor Wilf Mannion, 3 points, two members of England's fabled post-Second War forward line, secured enough votes to reach the top 100, and, as World Soccer observed, the failure of a third, Stan Mortensen, to gain even a single point although he scored more than 300 goals, including 23 in only 25 internationals, "was one of the biggest surprises of the entire vote." 

Yet, skewed as it was, the top 100 selection could have been much worse.  At least the two wingers on that marvelous post-war England forward line, Stanley Matthews and Tom Finney, were voted into the top 50.  And, despite World Soccer's English base and the resulting English bias, no England player finished in the top 10, the least controversial portion of the poll's results.  Three--Bobby Charlton, Bobby Moore and Stanley Matthews-- were in the top 20, but they deserved those positions.  Six more--Gordon Banks, Gary Lineker, Michael Owen, Duncan Edwards, David Beckham and Tom Finney--finished in the top 50, and there were at least two and perhaps three or even four question marks there.  Another six finished in the top 100--Kevin Keegan, Paul Gascoigne, Glenn Hoddle, Alan Shearer, Dixie Dean and Bryan Robson--great players all, but perhaps not all deserving a spot among the 100 greatest. 

Both England and Brazil had 15 players in the top 100, Italy, 11 (1 of them shared), Germany, 8, Holland, 7, Argentina, 6 (1 of them shared), France, 6, Spain, 5 (3 of them shared), Hungary, 4 (2 of them shared), Wales, 4, Denmark, 3, Scotland, 3, and Uruguay, 3 (1 of them shared).

Many other England players drew votes but placed outside the top 100, some of them, to put it charitably, singularly peculiar choices.   They were, in alphabetical order: Tony Adams, 6 points, Alan Ball, 7, Gary Bailey, 5, John Barnes, 23, Len Barry, 8 (or, since World Soccer gave no first name or initial, could that be the then uncapped Gareth Barry?), Cliff Bastin, 6, Peter Beardsley, 3, Colin Bell, 17, Roger Byrne, 8, Sol Campbell, 21, Allan Clarke, 2, Ray Clemence, 16, Andrew Cole, 6, Tony Currie, 2, Brian Deane, 4, Tony Dorigo, 2, Ted Drake, 6, Robbie Fowler, 10, the uncapped former England squad member Steve Froggatt, 5, Charlie George, 1, Jimmy Greaves, 24, Geoff Hurst, 22, Paul Ince, 5, Tommy Lawton, 14, Steve McManaman, 28, Wilf Mannion, 3, Phil Neal, 6, Gary Neville, 1, Stuart Pearce, 11, Paul Parker, 2, David Platt, 4, Charlie Roberts, 5, David Seaman, 5, Len  Shackleton, 6, Lee Sharpe, 4, Peter Shilton, 16, Frank Swift, 8, Peter Thompson, 3, Phil Thompson, 3, Dennis Tueart, 1, Chris Waddle, 1, Ray Wilson, 17, Frank Worthington, 5, Billy Wright, 15, Ian Wright, 14.  One other English player, "Howells," no first name or initial given, received 8 points.  While there have been several English players named Howells, none of them were ever capped at senior level.

Rubbish!!!!!! How could Ginola, Gascoine, Del Piero, Hansen, Owen just to name a few make the top 100. Ahead of Voller, Desailly, Savicevic, Ardiles, Zagallo, Carlos Alberto. Need I say more?

I was going to mention Ronaldinho too but maybe he's not in there because he still has quite a few years left unlike some the players included who have been included e.g Vieri. It's still a poor list though LMAO.
