Every sport's got that athlete that's has stood out over the years to become "the" players like MJ, Gretsky, Joe Montana, Tiger woods, Dale Earnhardt, Michael Schumacher etc... But who is it for the world's most popular sport? I say as of right now, Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player in the world at the moment, he's been in a unstoppable form for United and he'll shine for Portugal in Austria/Switzerland this summer for Euro 2008. As for the greatest player of all time: For me, It's gonna be Franz Beckenbauer aka "Der Kaiser" the greatest defender the game has ever produced, he's done it all. Won the world cup as a player and a coach, he's won the CL with Bayern so many times, he's even played a match with a discolated shoulder and still scored a goal! He's been an influential person to the sport for 50 years now since making his debut in Sweden '58, he's even helped the sport grow in America as part of the ultimately ill-fated NY Cosmos. Who do you think is the best player of all time and of now?

Who do you think is the best player of all time and of now? I agree with you on Franz Beckenbauer. However, I would like to add Uwe Seeler to that

Pele is definately the best player of all time overall, he too has done it all except coaching. He's mostly popular with americans tho since he's the only player other than beckham that they know.

and Brits. Pele retired as the only player with over 1000 goals in professional football (that I know of)

Actually Romario just retired last week and he had over 1000 goals, but it was just over 1000, like 1004 or something, so its him and Pele now.

just due to my serious bias, i'll agree with Cristiano Ronaldo and throw Wayne Rooney out there also
