An interesting article headed by tGOAT Gab Marcotti. Thought I would share. Feel free to discuss.

As for the FC100, it's the result of a vote among ESPN FC writers, experts and regions to determine the top 100 in the game right now. Our ballot breaks things down by position to more accurately reflect the top performers all over the pitch, not just the ones who dominate the headlines. You can choose to read these lists and get angry because somebody is at No. 9 rather than at No. 5. You can spot biases and prejudices and preferential treatment, and maybe you'll be right, because we're all human and we live with this every day. You can lament the need to rank, separate and segregate, rather than simply appreciating greatness in all its forms. Or you can do something a bit more constructive. You can make your own list and, perhaps, compare it with a friend's. Maybe even have a conversation about it. And it might just be fun, like the fun you had when you were a kid.

No love for Serie A midfielders. Right now, give me Pjanic, Marchisio, Naiingolan over Alonso. Nolito and Sterling in the top 6 but no Insigne or Salah
They went with the glamour names

Good point. Italy got no love in the MF department.

Jose at #7 pretty much just shows how shitty the list is.
It's debatable if he's one of the top7 managers in EPL now, let alone top7 in world? Get the frick outta here with that bullshite.
NO way Zlaten is a top5 striker in the world. Costa, PBY, and Higuain are all better. And i'm being generous by only putting those 3 ahead of him.

Koscielny at 10th best CB is laughable

Bellerin at #2 RB, tho.

Sterling the 3rd best winger in the world.
