Who picks these lists, is it the Americans? Is it dreambeliever? Because I don't know shit about world footy but I'm pretty sure I'd do a better job than these cunts

They're saying there are only 5 right backs in the world better than a 35-year old Jesus Navas and rate Kante (who played like 15 games all year) as a top 5 mid. Then I saw Pogba on there and couldn't even be bothered with the rest

It's a list based on name more than on last year's performances

Well we did win the PL and Bayern the CL hence why both are so strongly represented.

It's based on voting (and of course ESPN has a European channel and a UK channel not just a US one). It's not clear who has voted however but it could be from their match ratings across the season or maybe a fan vote (since they did say 'your' in there somewhere). It really isn't clear - wish it was !
 
Pogba should be nowhere near that list. Nor should De Gea, or a few others. Has that Dest even played for Barcelona yet? Isn't he the one who couldn't keep the ball up during his unveiling.
 
I read the list in its entirety yesterday and it's mostly utter shit. Nice to see our players recognized but the rankings are balls.

I'd love us to go big for Haaland, what a player.

Hes going to be incredible for the next 10 years if he can stay healthy. Given our financial situation we either get him within the next 12 months or we will be reduced to a thread every 2 years about how Nike are going to buy him for us.

Still waiting on that Nike marquee signing to go with the kit launch!

The club has shown they can agree deals when they need to, Haaland would definitely be upwards of £100m, which we could only set up a structured payments for.

He is the best youngster in the world next to Mbappe, it would be a great show of ambition, imagine him upfront with Salah and Mane.
 
I don't care how many goals he scores, Haaland looks like a dork and I don't want to watch his face every week
