Goku de la Boca Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 The list feels very unbalanced because they include Asian players in Asia and Europe and foreigners in Asia. However, if we're just looking for the best in that criteria, I don't think it's an unaccurate top 10. Looking at South Korea's squad, they have no excuse to not make the Asian Cup final, they have been so poorly coached through their history it is stupid.

Administrator Stan Posted January 18 Administrator Share Posted January 18 Who voted for Harry Souttar . Must purely be based on international appearances so presumably an Aussie judge. Son is the rightful number one choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Son Heung Min and Kim Min Jae were clear of everyone else and Ronaldo has been very good and most of all PROFESSIONAL in Saudi Arabia. My only complaint with the list is the criteria that was picked, it feels they didn't know how to cast the players eligible for this sort of thing, but in terms of actual quality and performance, I have no complaints with the top 10.

What is this, the best footballer playing in Asia or the best Asian footballer? It seems like this has both. Not sure at all about the validity and accuracy of these rankings either, but Son has to be there near the top, so no objections to him being number 1.

It seems like this has both. That is my question as well. Hence why the criteria is unbalanced to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Gonzo Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 Why are players that don't really play in Asia listed as the best players "in Asia" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
