Don't the goalkeepers belong in these lists? Remember the goalkeeper is the most important part of the squad. Where is Ollie Kahn , Fabien Barthez and co.? I'd still say Peter Schmeichel is one of the world's best. Same goes for Sami Hyypiä in defence you're not chosen into the CNN/World Soccer/Kicker/Goal all-star teams for nothing!!

Juan Roman Riquelme is right now the best player playing in the Americas. He is the playmaker, AM, for Boca Juniors in Argentina and has led them to back to back Copa Liberatadores titles. He is 22 years old, Argentinian, and is constantly linked with Barcelona, but most recently has been linked with AC Milan in Italy.

Riquelme is world class. Amazing. One of the best AMs in the world.

Still young and I'd love to see him at Barca (even thought I hate them) with Saviola. That partnership would be "wicked."

He'll come to WHL though because he wants to play with Andriy Shevchenko and Dean Richards.

ShiftyPowers: Is Rivaldo an attacker? I thought he was an attacking midfielder.


and why is it so many Bayern Munich players are here?

Rivaldo plays striker a lot for Barca and the Brazilian national team.

And Bayern players are there because they are part of the best team in the world. No one asks why there are so many Man United players, even though there are more of them than Bayern players.

The voting for the Nesta vs. Sol Campbell is over and Alessandro Nesta is the first player to advance to the second round. The next round will begin(in the FIFA 2002 Forum) when each matchup has a winner, which is 10 votes.

[ShiftyPowers]

Well Shearer, I've been here for much longer than you, and I decided to make the end all be all of these topics. And really, there has never been a topic like this of this size.
