Top 5 Greatest Soccer Players of All Time

This is ranked by the Association of Football Statisticians
These are all retired players

1. Pele
- Pele is probably the most recognized player of all time. He is a Brazilian, Pele is almost a legend even though hes still alive. People admire his thoughts about football and his skill. There is no doubt why he shouldn't be ranked first. This is one of his quotes “Enthusiasm is everything. It must be taut and vibrating like a guitar string.”

2. Ronaldo
- Ronaldo has been famous and recognized for years. He is a Brazilian soccer player. He has been disappointed by many coaches and fans because he was too fat, and he needed to loose some weight, and that was also a big issue. Personally I think that there could have been a lot more players that could have been ranked 2.

3. Romário
- Personally I do not know this player well. He is from Brazil, he is the second one to score thousand goals after Pele. He even released a DVD that shows his top 900 goals. He is a very skilled dangerous striker.

4. Luís Figo
- Luís Figo is a offensive Portuguese midfielder. He has been famous for years. Personally I think that there are a lot of players who are better then him. He is known for his skills in passing and shooting.

5. Zinedine Zidane
- Zinedine Zidane is probably the best and the most famous soccer player in France. He is famously known through out the world. He is famous for his tricks, and it is usually called the Zindane trick.
